The Drugs Don't Work

Its that time of year again. Runny nose, itchy eyes, comedy sneezing fits. So I’ve just popped out to Boots and bought some Clarityn tablets.

I was really hoping I was over this hayfever thing, I mean it is soooo nineteen nineties, but it seems that my aversion to pollen is just as strong as it has always been.

Of course, in Australia (bugger, we just missed the food and wine festival) I suffered not a single sniffle. Does this mean that antipodean pollen is less offensive than the variety we get in the mother country?
