A touch of food posioning

I'm not sure how I managed it but I think that I managed to give myself food posioning with pineapple and yogurt. It seemed like a very innocuous breakfast, one that I have in fact on a very regular basis out here. I even sniffed the yogurt to check that it was still ok; I tend to be really careful with dairy products out here and it smelled just fine.

Then about 2 I started to feel nausous. I thought I was just tired and took a nap. We went off to the pool where my stomach started cramping and I though, well, I haven't eaten since breakfast so maybe I should have some lunch. That'll help. I really am a nightmare when my blood sugar gets low. Alas it was not to be. By 5.30 I was confined to bed and so shakey I could barely make it to the bathroom to yak.

Most unpleasant- I've never experienced it before and hope to never have to again. And you can be sure I'll be checking my dairy products more closely from now on. And the remainder of the pineapple is going in the bin.

So that's what has been happening with me this weekend. My first proper weekend in ages in the sense that I will be working either side of it and was looking forward to it being my "time off".

Normal posting will resume soon!
