Default OT - sort of. New use for Lobelia?

While we were in Crete, I was suffering from what is now known as 'post

It was annoying me so much that eventually, I asked a chemist in Elounda
village if she had anything I could take for it. I expected to be sold some
cocktail of expensive chemicals but she simply handed me a small jar of
Lobelia tablets. They work like a dream! Hope fellow-sufferers have
homeopathic stores nearby. ;-)


Have you been able to buy them over here, Sacha? I could do with them
also.

Try the Tower Pharmacy in Kingswood. Go on a Saturday afternoon and speak to the old
guy who works in the health-food part. If he hasn't heard of it he'll source it and
if he sells a lot he'll reduce the price... Or just go there anyway, it's a brilliant
place, and they'll even check with the pharmacy next door to make sure nothing
clashes with any orthodox medication....
