Chesty Cough

After being blessed with a free upgrade to business for the 14+ hr. flight back to Sydney, Debbie is convinced that she caught the flu-like cold she currently has from the woman next to her on the airplane. "Was it still worth it?" you ask ... sure was! (See photos below for proof.)
Debbie has been trying out different meds this week, includin
g one named "Chesty Cough." Don't let the catchy name deceive you- its taste is vile, not "great berry flavored" as the packaging mistakenly claims.
We continue to observe unique Aussie terms while living here, and c
hesty cough definitely makes the list, along with "tasty cheese" (a mild while monterey jack/cheddar) and "brekky" (common term for breakfast). Notice any similarities?
If Debbie doesn't get better soon she may have to up the dosage to chesty cough's stronger cousin- "chesty forte." (Yes, that is the real name on the box.) Let's hope that doesn't happen!

The one and only- Chesty Cough (If you say it quickly it sounds like a German something or another - "Czety Kof")

Now this is what we call flying!

Whit, taking a full advantage of the seat turned bed and back massager built in!

  2. Debbie, the cough syrup and product name comments are hilarious. Looks like a cozy flight...but why did they tie Whit's hands behind his head? Great seeing y'all in Tejas!
