Thank you for that, TAPS. The green olive sounds like a good idea, especially if I can have the martini at the same time? If you wish, i could ship some snow down to you? No?

Johnmacnab, I love to read your posts and I am thankful
that we don't have as much show as you.
We have enough, but not enough to
keep a person in. I have found that when I have
a scratch throat, sucking on a green olive helps--
you know, the kind they put in martinis.
There's just something about it....

I remembered about 5 in the morning that we had some lemon drinks in a cupboard somewhere. As I couldn't sleep I searched for them and although they were ever so slightly out of date, they worked. I decided to leave the addition of the Scotch until later. Thanks for your pharmaceutical advice Pat.

Hot lemonade with a bit of honey (and a splash of scotch) will
do wonders for a scratchy throat. Or if it doesn't, you won't care. Or a gargle with warm salt water. You're not at the complete bitter end of the rope...
