I know that Dandy Lions are a cure for warts & a clove garlic placed in the mouth is good for sore throats.
Any old wives tales that actually work :question

I thought so, but I am not particularly well travelled in the UK.
I have only been north of Winchester once in my life  .

We have a remedy for Crupe in youngsters

Take a swede, cut the top off it and keep this as it will be used again.
scallop out the innards like you would a pumpkin (don't cut the holes for a face)
fill the innards with BROWN sugar, pack it really tightly, put the top back on and leave it on a saucer overnight.

Next day you will have a caramel goo in the centre, serve one small spoonful. because it is mildly sweet they will go for it, within a day or so the Crope will go.

Have tired this a number of times with my own and friends/families kids, always works

DONT EAT THE YELLOW SNOW!

That's a tip, not a cure

If coming down with a cold forget Lem-sip and the like. Whisky in hot water with a spoon of sugar, wrap up and sweat it out. Always works
