Nicky - I'd skip the wine and go straight to the hot toddies -
Lemon squeezed freshly into glass. (pint)
2 big spoons of honey
Half a bottle of scotch or brandy
Top with boiling water and stir to mix the honey in.
Down it quicky - you'll be asleep in moments and won't give a rats about the hay fever!!
Works for me every time!
G'night - hic!
