Mrs Arese-to be and I went for a carvery last night. A really cheap carvery, £7.50 for as much as you could eat. It was average.

I ate it all though, and rolled home feeling full and ready for a night in front of the TV before going to bed and then back to work today.

Only, at about midnight I started with stomach cramps. I felt like I was about to give birth to a set of kitchen knives. Anyway, I tried to ignore it and get to sleep, but it was persistent and at about 3am I had to visit the bathroom to vomit. Sweet Jesus. I can honestly say I've never seen so much sick, and my mouth has never been stretched that far open.

So am I dying? Stomach cramps, sickness and diarrhea. I've been able to drink around 5 pints of water since first vomit, and kept most of it down, but not eaten anything at all today.

You can catch it off toilets.

If a gayman uses a toilet, inevitably some AIDs will fall off him, onto the toilet. Then, when you use the toilet, the AIDs will get on you.

Hey presto - you have AIDs.

Just watch out for the loo seat.

Nothing like rushing to shout at Hugh again, lifting the lid, placing your head over the top and then that sudden realisation that the seat has just bounced off the back, it's on its way down again and you will not be able to stop it in time...

No, No and no.

The worst is when it is coming out of both ends and you've just empty your butt and then need to throw up and get caught in said butt droppings coming back at you.

Already happened. hehe Might I add that that particular loo seat has never crashed down before, only this morning when my head was in it.

Cheers Soad. The stomach cramps have eased off a little now. Without being too descriptive, I've just ... well I've just done another massive sprayer and I'm feeling a lot better.

It's only gay if you push back, remember?

Best thing to have for this is diarolyte (sp ?). If you do decide to drink this stuff, make sure you buy the non flavoured stuff. Blackcurrant/orange tastes disgusting and you'll just want to vomit it back up. Don't have any loperamide ( immodium). best just to st it out of your system.

Thanks for that. I have just laugh out loud in the middle of a quiet office.

You just need to be vigilant. AIDS are actually quite big so can be seen by the naked eye. This means they can be killed by whacking them with a slipper - just remember to check under the lid as well as you don't want them swimming up your winkle.

I had this a couple of months back. My sweet Lord - I thought I was about to meet my maker.

Whilst blazing from both barrels I discovered that its fecking difficult to hurl in between your legs whilst sat on the pan.

The wife just barfed into the bathtub next to the pan when she got it...

If you think I am painting an unpleasant picture - it's nothing to the awful reality I can assure you.

Eurgh, I had that about 2 years ago. Horrible, Horrible experience. Didn't start off too bad though so i thought i was alright to get up at 4am and catch the train to chester for a training course.

All went to plan until about 20minutes into the journey, When the watery brown monster reared its ugly head. I spent the rest of the journey there on the loo every 5 or 10 minutes. Got the first train back to manchester, and again spent the entire journey stting for queen and country. To any First employee's who may of had the unpleasant job of cleaning that up, I Heartily appologise.

On a side note, Has anyone ever experienced throwing up half of a part-digested KFC bargain bucket and a bottle of southern comfort into a toilet? The evening before the train debaccle i did. It was not pretty, and i still cant bring myself to eat chicken. Especially KFC. Probably a good thing, Though.

I Would not wish Norovirus on anyone.

I actually cried. After about my 40th visit I started to get the first signs of blacking out - vision started tunnelling. I just couldn't believe that life was being so cruel as for me to end up in A&E unconscious with my trolleys around my ankle, covered in my own pooh water.

Fortunately, I managed to hang onto conciousness by stuffing paper up my bum and lying down on the toilet floor. Not the most dignified of positions but a million times more dignified than the alternative.
