Mine has barely registered this year. Seems I have it either really bad or not at all.

Still can't believe you put orange with dairy! :/ Though you have great taste in food so it's probably delish, but it just seems odd!

However I agree with peg-leg smoothies are a great way of eating honey.,

Active Manukna honey is very good but expensive but tastes absolutely delish!

I never knew honey was helpful towards minimising symptoms for hayfever! Learn something new every day!

I have a spoonful of that if I get a bad throat. So rich!

It's a great antiseptic. Especially the 10+ stuff.

Does the same with me.. makes me VERY tired, causes nose bleeds, and also makes me wake up with the roof of my mouth covered in hardened flem... yummy.

Anyway, better then sneezing and blowing my nose every five minutes.. have you any idea how much I spend on tissues?!

For those with hayfever these are the things I do/take to help prevent it...
Medication:

Telfast Fexofenadine (Hydrochloride) 120mg tablets - two a day (only prescribed one)
Pollenase Sodium Cromoglicate 2% w/v eye drops - four per eye per day
Flixonase Aqueous Nasal Spray (Fluticasone Propionate) - two sprays per nostril per day

Other Stuff:

Lloyds Pharmacy Ionising Air Purifier - constantly on on my windowsill*
Lloyds Pharmacy Allergy Reliever* - once a day
Locally produced honey - in whatever I can

What seems to work the best for me is, rather strangely, the ioniser, allergy reliever and the honey.. odd!

Click here for the reliever and air purifier package for just £22 from £60... I HIGHLY recommend it.

After reading this and generally thinking about it, I've decided I want bees. I found a club which gives downloadable info on how to go about it, what hutches they need and that kinda thing and I think they are cute and fluffy and I want pet bees (Jhadur isn't too sure on the idea - he called me mad; minor point!)

A bit of acidity works very well in a smoothie. Try it you big food snob you

That's why I use an apple as my base as it's the acidity which helps.
