Had
a Cold?
I had a cold recently, so I bought myself an inhaler. The
smell reminded me of my childhood. I dont know if anyone can remember
a camphor block? My mum used to get them at the chemists shop. She made
us little bags about two inches square and threaded them with a ribbon and we
had to wear them round our necks, with the bag hanging on our chest. We also
had our chests rubbed with goose grease! Those were the days!
