Top tip

When Ma Ma puts your olbas inhaler through the washing machine in your jeans pocket, do not:

a) unscrew the cap and check that it looks physically intact.

followed by

b) apply to nostril and inhale deeply.

Trust me, throw the damn thing away. Unless you like a mix of detergent, and mega strong decongestant blasting your face off. And your nose burning for the next 30 minutes as you struggle to breathe.

Feel free to share your top tips.
NB: Ma Ma already knows the one about your offspring will sulk if you laugh at his misfortune.
