    Re: OT - Hay fever cures.

    I've seen people say that eating a spoonful a day of local honey can build up immunity to the local allergens and they become less-sensitive to it over time, not sure if there is any medical evidence to back that up but if it's worked for some people it's worth a go, it's good for you anyway so it can't do any harm, honey.

    Unless you're allergic to honey in which case you could die.

    I suppose they wouldn't suffer from hayfever after dying mind.

    Just to add about the honey thing.

    I used to get hay fever like a bastard. It tailed off a bit in my twenties and thirties but it was still pretty shitty.

    I tried everything from sprays, tablets, drops - even injections for about five years before they found out they caused muscle wastage and banned them.

    Then someone recommended local honey so I gave it a go. One spoonful every day between April/May until Sept time.

    Worked a treat - still get the odd bit here and there (last week I've had a little bit) but nothing like what it used to be.

    Pop along to that farm shop in radyr (the one in that little shopping place just off the a470) and pick up a jar that comes from tonyrefail apiary(?)

    Probably the best thing I've discovered since women's vaginas.
