    Ginger biscuits are great or even stem ginger for the sickness. You may find that taking sugar in your drinks may help as well. Make sure you eat if you can little and often. Hope you are not feeling too rubbish. If anti sickness tablet donot work ring up and get different ones, there is more than one on the market. have they given you steroids as well? They are suppose to help with the sickness.

    Oh dear. I am so sorry Rob, tho I guess with as big a dose of meth as that it's going to happen. I swear by cream crackers when I feel icky - but I know your icky is far more extreme. Thinking of you.

    Morning Rob

    Really hope that today IS a better day for you and that, as Tinkerbelle put it so beautifully, that DD's vomit fairy has frozen to a crisp in the night! Hopefully Lupin's patrol can find her and arrest her before she thaws out!

    Thinking of you and glad you had Lewis with you yesterday.

    Love Tilly xxx
