5 of the top 20 towns in england are in kent for hay fever sufferers.
one of the 5 being dover, this is based on sales of remedies.
the problem is not just pollen apparently but also pollution from motor vehicles.

I'd like to know what it is that spews out it's pollen in the middle of the night, because ever since I used to work nights I have been affected and a couple of nights ago I had a really bad attack with streaming eyes and nose at 2 0'clock in the morning.
Anyone who lives along Townwall Street would know about pollution from motor vehicles. Just to look at our window sills would make you wonder about what was happening to your lungs!

Buddleia is bad for pollen allergy sufferers and Dover is full of it. Also a huge amount Of oilseed rape is grown in the surrounding area, if anyone walks into the bar having walked the north downs way in early summer it has me sneezing straight away!
