Coconut oil-very good for scalp & hair.Alledgedly helps prevent you going grey.
Gargle with vinegar for a sore throat (may 'cause heaving!!!)

If you suffer from eczema , use cotton wool to dab the white of a raw egg on the affected area. It won't actually get rid of the eczema but it does reduce the redness and soreness..........something to do with enzymes. It really does work.

Kerry,
I have seen work on ducu's where potato peel was placed over and firmly wrapped, but ask professional first.

Margaret, a fume can only be ignited by open flame or lots and lots of direct sparks.
not a simple fag.
