Hot toddies..wedge of lemon, spoon of honey, wee dram of good brandy/whisky, hot water to top of cup....keep drinking until pain goes away really good to get to sleep and allow other medications to kick in.
edit - hlarmy we must both have the same medicine man...

whilst this provides a short term solution, in my experience this makes your cold angry and it comes back twice as strong the next day. Failing going to the street art awards tonight, I don't also want to miss POW on Sat due to cold killing via Guiness
