Beechams Flu Plus Hot Lemon Recently my mum came round to visit, we had a nice lunch, a nice shopping trip and then she went home early because she was feeling a bit under the weather. Later that week we were both stuck in bed with horrible colds. I think my immune system just rolls over and lets in any and all cold viruses.
