I seem to be allergic to Carlton :-(

Waiting while my kid is in an appointment, and so far I’ve got tree fluff in both my eyes and have breathed it in, too

coff coff sneeze

E: the icecream was delicious, but

Plane tree flowers (currently blooming) was what we kids used to use as itching powder on other kids that tormented us. So I'm not all that surprised that the air is full of itchies at the moment. Have been sneezing a lot myself. Not cold/flu related.

Ah, that explains the haze in Lygon st and the wind definitely wasn’t helping

Yo what?! My nose was itchy all day! Felt like I needed to sneeze for hours but couldn't.
