Default Tips for fighting a cold?

I got sick, my throat feels like sandpaper and my nose it runny. Do any of you have some good housemum-tips to getting on top again asap?

I have been drinking buckets of chamomile tea with honey and lemon so far, and I think it has been keeping me from coughing.

I really do want to be able to get back to work, I feel a bit guilty for staying at home as I generally feel fine most of the day. The mornings and the evenings are the worst. However, I'm worried that I will start coughing like a maniac, seeing as when I start coughing, I will cough for 2½-3 months, which leaves me with very little sleep and bother people around me. The thought of getting someone else ill is getting to me as well.

So I wanted to know about your tips and strategies for battling a cold. Well known or not so well known, I've noticed that it varies a lot from country to country, so I'm interested in anything!
