4. Allergies

"Allergies" was the A-side of the first single from Hearts and Bones, the fifth solo album by Paul Simon, released in 1983. It is commonly believed that the song is about his relationship with then-girlfriend Carrie Fisher of Star Wars fame.

Here you have the lyrics.

 

In "The Pop Singer's Fear of the Pollen Count", a song by The Divine Comedy, Neil Hannon deals with the same topic in quite a different vein.

These are the lyrics.

When people feel ill or an accident happens, you can use a first-aid kit to help.

It's important to have a well-stocked first aid kit in your home so that you can deal with minor accidents and injuries.

Your first aid kit should be locked and kept in a cool, dry place, out of reach of children.

Many people also keep a small first aid kit in their car for emergencies.

A basic first aid kit may contain:

• plasters, in a variety of different sizes and shapes
• small, medium and large sterile gauze dressings
• at least 2 sterile eye dressings
• triangular bandages
• crêpe rolled bandages
• safety pins
• disposable sterile gloves
• tweezers
• scissors
• alcohol-free cleansing wipes
• sticky tape
• thermometer, preferably digital
• skin rash cream, such as hydrocortisone or calendula
• cream or spray to relieve insect bites and stings
• antiseptic cream
• painkillers such as paracetamol (or infant paracetamol for children), aspirin (not to be given to children under 16), or ibuprofen
• cough medicine
• antihistamine tablets
• distilled water, for cleaning wounds
• eye wash and eye bath

It may also be useful to keep a basic first aid manual or instruction booklet with your first aid kit.

Medicines should be checked regularly to make sure they are within their use-by dates.
