Just had to Google ' Breeze House' . Never heard of them before.

They are made in Leek although we first saw ours at The Chelsea Flower show.
We loved the thought of one but then a few months later we saw them again at The Chatsworth show where they had an offer on.

Ours in The Savannah, one of the smaller ones.
We love it, one of the best things we have bought. I'm in it now with the heater on.

I've got 'over the counter tablets' that don't seem to be doing much, I take them at around tea time as I seem to be ok at work (a combination of air con & masks may help) but this morning I woke up with massively swollen itchy eyes which watered along with my nose, all day long, add to that sneezing, itching & a headache and my stubborness that I was going to sit in the garden all afternoon cold or not. Now I'm suffering.

Sounds like you need Faxofenadine

Get a GP appointment, tell them you have horrendous hay fever symptoms and the over the counter stuff isn’t doing it for you. They’ll probably prescribe it on the spot as it’s a fairly common thing these past few years

I only get hay fever on a few days each year (totally random days as well). The tablets that work best for me are ones with Loratadine in. If it's really bad I use a Beconase nasal spray as well.

I take loratadine all year round as I get bad reactions to bites and that's what the doctor suggested. No idea if it actually works or not.

I'll try those (the ones I use have cetrizine in) , I also use sudafed nasal spray when it's bad but sometimes I think the sudafed makes it worse as it takes away the stuffiness my makes my nose run like a rap.

Well I have previously had my husband and various neighbours all trying to make cocktails in the gin palace.
But as they are all in the 60’s age range, it’s not quite the same as your suggestion.

Birch is the most highly allergenic of the tree pollens - and is even implicated as a cause of peanut allergy, the allergens in both are very similar & the body can confuse them

Bryan Brown is 73. Tom Cruise is 58. Close enough x

Took us ages to get off there earlier. Needed a new immersion heater so had to queue, normally if there are more than half a dozen people waiting I'll turn around and come back in the week.

I took a walk around Tamar Lake this morning to clear my head from investigating a problem. Bright sunny periods with the odd thin shower, typical April weather you might think .. !! But that north wind, talk about a surgeons knife. I had a tee shirt, a jumper, a bodywarmer and a padded M65 jacket and it still felt cold.
I must be getting nesh !! :eek:

I can't win on that one. According to the locals I'm a dour northern Brummy. (I have family on the outskirts of Brum but I don't come from there, but according to the Cornish if you come from the Midlands you're a Brummy.)

If I tell them I'm from Stafford they look puzzled and ask: "Is that where Shakespeare came from ?" at which point I give up and sod off down the pub. (Back when it was open.) :roll:
