Sea-Band is a drug-free nausea, motion sickness and morning sickness relief band for adults and children.

So… summer is well and truly gone. The leaves are falling and I spend my days sweeping up bits of grass and other dead stuff from the conservatory.  The neighbour’s sweary kids are back at school, thank heavens, and we’ve unpacked our suitcases from our holidays. But, summer being gone doesn’t mean the…
