Congratulations Kwackboy

I'm up for a liquified 'poo' every 20 mins at the moment, not nice.

Took the V-stom for its MoT it sailed through without fault.
I'm sure that the engine is even better now, with 50'000 + miles on the clock than it was 20.000 miles ago!

I've managed to eat something today (porridge, no milk or sugar, just water), my first meal since some ill-fated toast on Friday came through me like a train. Not sure what I've had but it's not been pleasant. I'm still not 100% but I'm able to move more than three steps away from the porcelain...

.....and even that's too much detail!

Get well soon.

FFS, 2112! Every time I click on this thread, I'm eating!!

Hell, it sounds like you could hit the porcelain from three steps away. Get well soon, roast dinner by next Sunday

So, it turns out that my botty woes have been caused by a little bug called gastroenteritis, probably picked up in filthy Manchester if the timeline is to be believed ? Things are well on the mend now, but I'm still far from 100% fit. I've just jumped on the scales and I've lost 7kg since the last time I got weighed ! That's just over 15lb in pre-decimal money, no wonder I feel knackered...

Regretably fewer people wash their hands after using a toilet these days. People seem to be forget how simple hygiene works. As the world population grows and the cost of travel falls more and more viruses will spread and of course the uncontrolled and often inadequte use of anti-biotics will be catastrophic for many communities. Most of us did not live in a time when a scratch from a rusty nail could be fatal. Our grandparents did, as will our grandchildren. COVID 19 was just a taster of what is to come.

P.S. sounds like you're on the mend 2112. Good show - I hope you are fully recovered very soon.

Feeling for you 2112, I've had it and I don't want it again. Although I could do with losing some pre-decimal weight.
Brockett, I fear you are wise.
Upt.

Brocket, you are right about people not washing their hands after using the toilet. I visit public loos a lot because I can't stop peeing. It shocks me that even after number two's some chaps don't wash. I hate touching the handle of the door when leaving. Dirty bas****s.

2112 · « **Reply #272 on:** February 21, 2024, 12:26:44 »

Cheers chaps, appreciated. I'm nearly back on to solid food now too. Whoop.

Foot operated shithouse door opener.

he'll never reach that from his place

TLPower · « **Reply #275 on:** February 21, 2024, 18:07:01 »

I'd never reach it with my stumpy legs.

@2112, it's good to hear you on the mend. A 7kg loss, that's a decent amount. Where exactly in Manchester did you visit?

Asking for a friend obviously.

Rusty Nuts · « **Reply #276 on:** February 21, 2024, 18:51:24 »

TLPower, are your legs so short they don't even reach the floor?

Barbel Mick · « **Reply #277 on:** February 21, 2024, 19:14:40 »

Not when he's sat on that monster he rides!

Hope you're referring to his KTM ...

Stockport. I always struggle with germs when I visit the midlands...

When I used to work for Balfour Beattie I was based out of Bamber Bridge near Preston. I always got a good bite when I mentioned that I'd come down from the North to work in the midlands. Every time.
