2 of my friends have it bad. My woman's is mild but her brother is ket with the hayfever altogether. I really really feel for people who have it, not being able to enjoy summer in its full capacity must be really hard. Tears comin from my womans brothers eyes, all swell up and all, really felt for him. Rememember years ago too, we all used to watch the silage when we were wee bucks, and some of the boys couldnt even come in the feild. Hateful hateful thing it must be.

Somebody else may have posted this before, I would imagine so anyway, but...

People asking what time is kick off in relation to a match instead of throw in!!

I have little to worry about, I know!

Ah I love it when the taxi man asks you that, as after your initial mocking rant you can enjoy the sights and sounds on the street in peace and quiet...

No, more - "Why are you asking me, sure I don't even know what year it is..."
I think he is 2 years out.

Why was he asking me who was winning, sure I couldn't even get the year right  :D Yes I meant to put in 2000, wouldn't mind, but I was stone cold sober at the 02 final

Having a sneezing bout when driving-can you get Hayfever, even if you never had it before in your life?

For the Northern hayfever sufferers, did you know you can go in to a pharmacy under some community health thing where the pharmacist "prescribes" instead of bothering the doctor, and they can prescribe antihistimenes (or however that word is spelt) and you get them free? 

Now I don't know if all pharmacies do it, but my friend runs a shop in Belfast and told me to come in cause she can do it.

Saves spending a fortune on Clarityn (or my favourite, Beconase).

I used to be absolutely shocking with it, seem to be one of the few who finds it less troublesome as the years go on.
