Vapour rub

[tobyaw]

Up until today, I’d never tried vapour chest rub as a cold remedy. But Kate took a trip into town today to pick up some medication, and now I am the proud owner of a jar of pungent Vaseline-like goo, with a strong smell of camphor, eucalyptus, and menthol.

I am now in a household of well-greased chests. It make a change from my usual liberal application of Olbas Oil.
