Marmite and sugar in hot water tastes horrible.

Most of you would probably be intelligent enough not to try this - I'm getting somewhat desperate to get my throat less tickly (it's not even properly sore... but I'm worried it'll turn into tonsilitis and then I'll get scarlet fever like Helen did here in November and I'll be in bed for 3 weeks like she was and *hypochondriacs*) - but just don't, it's horrible, but having concocted it I now feel obliged to drink it.

It's probably not even doing any good :(
