But what does it do in the treatment of asthma? Becotide is a steroid. It is a [word omitted] medicine.

A Bronchodilator?

So now you know, was I close with Becotide?

Co-codamol

Becotide is a PREVENTATIVE medicine.

Oh come on; if I am offered an open goal with suppositories and 'the bung hole' ? What kind of a man walks away from that?

I am going to put you out of my misery if this goes on much longer. Surely someone is googling asthma medication?

No, quite, you had to take it. I respect that.

I don’t have a question, so was trying to be helpful but vague.

Sodium cromoglycate?

Steriods, I know they have been mentioned but Prednisolone.

I don't have a question and am working my way through the 7,000,000 non-steroid anti-asthma medicines listed by google.

Posted: **21:22 Mon 30 Sep 2013**

Becotide is a preventer. Sodium cromoglycate is a reliever (for when you get an attack, mainly because you're too lazy to remember to take your preventer). It's the blue one. Ventolin. I don't take becotide any more (the brown one), I take a thing called QVar (the purple one).

The good news for djewesbury is that rule 42b says that if no one gets the answer the questioner gets another question.

You answered it correctly. Your question, while I hyperventilate... And complain that this Bomfim 99 didn't really hold up at all on the second night, and was only alright on the first.

I missed that.

That was fun, so let's stay on the theme.

I had a knee operation seven days ago. What was the first drug I took that was related to that operation?

*grits teeth*
a muscle relaxant

CHâ‚ƒCHâ‚‚OH, and considerably in advance of the operation.

Next guess: lard.

It's not lorazepam it's the other one that sounds like it (not diazepam or clonazepam) but..... no can't remember

Technically correct. JDAW's question.

I should have said "after" rather than "related to".

It was Tramadol. Never again.

Lormetazepam that's the one I was thinking of (and my guess)

Posted: **21:45 Mon 30 Sep 2013**

Today I have sent two completed forms to a part of the British government with which I have never previously corresponded. This part of the British gov’t has existed since the reign of Queen Victoria. Which part is it?

Footnote: though it has existed since Q. Vicky, I’m not certain that it has done so under its current name.

Do I look like the sort of person who has ever had anything to do with being educated? Really?

So stop being silly.

Wrong.

On 16th February 2011 I wrote to the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, commenting on the 1947 Juba Conference. My suggestion was not adopted.
