beansprout Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Sure B & Q would sell them -Lidls, haven't been but thank you for the tip - I too suffer, cold tea bags are a temp measure as are eye drops.Not sure if the shop that sells virtually everything, near Picture House might sell some.

JickieC Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 camomile teabags for eyes are brilliant. or you can buy dried eyebright (a herb) for 2 or 3 quid in Health Matters - that REALLY helps. Or step it up with an OTC anti-hystamene eyedrop - https://www.boots.com/boots-pharmaceuticals-hayfever-relief-w-v-eye-drops-10ml-10190807i know squat about bark...(But if anyone has any tips how to stop the Plain tree bombs from ripping up the back of your throat...)Good luck Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/194423-buying-bark-chippings-locally/#findComment-1255831 Share on other sites More sharing options...

malumbu Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Shannons? Shopped there for years but never found them particularly helpful. Wickes just down the road. If you go to the individual websites the customer ratings are helpful.
