I have endured hay fever for decades and have two pieces of advice (Hay fever making your life a misery? Try these 20 tips from doctors and allergy experts, 10 April). First, if you work in an office, stay there five days a week. The air-conditioning filtering the pollen is a dream. And second, under no circumstances, even if they are not itching, touch your eyes. Untouched, I can get by with no drugs, even on the most irritating of days.
