not sure if you can get the Ginger has a tablet to but the Ginger Cordial has to be only Ginger,the ones you get in the supermarkets have all kinds of s**t in it,its not pure Ginger and thats what you want if you take it before bath or shower you'll see how warm you can realy get :chuckle :chuckle :chuckle its like a hot summer's day felling on the inside.

a decent spicey curry or chilli con carne works wonders , not a a*** burner though !

There's one curry house in Newcastle that do a vindaloo challenge , not many make it , they showed the cook putting all these chillis in the pan , p*****g himself laughing on TV .

You're right about a hot chilli killing off a cold Norbet

Female = cold :angel
Male = Man Flu :Boo hoo!
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
