I work in a gardening centre in Kent and I really love my job as I learn about all sorts of plants and help people choose the right ones for their garden whether it is a small city pad or a rural garden in the country.

The problem is that I suffer quite badly from hayfever which means that when the plants start pollinating in spring, and we start to get really busy, my dream job becomes my nightmare job. My eyes start itching really badly and you want to rub them which only makes it worse. When it gets really bad, I have to take myself away from the plants and work inside which is really frustrating.

One of my regular customers told me about Clarityn Allergy (loratadine) after a particularly bad phase and now I can get on with the job I enjoy without worrying about my hayfever.
