Paul and Sophie's Big Trip

Friday, October 06, 2006

Sorry Dave....

...but your wishes for safe stomachs seem to have jinxed us. Even before we read your comment both paul and I indulged in a bit of public vomiting although it was kind of our fault - me for having malaria pills, a garlic tablet (yet another thing to ward off the mosquitos which isn't working) and fanta for breakfast which I regurgitated outside the post office - we went staright to the head of the queue so it wasn't all wasted effort although garlicky fanta puke with a chemical aftertaste isn't nice just for anyone who's wondering. Paul then decided to have a midday workout in the blistering heat followed by a chocolate bar with predictable results. Then as paul so elegantly put it I got the shits for a day and now Paul has a similar problem - as usual when paul gets ill it's all been a bit dramatic but he has now recovered enough to start demanding random bits of food and is claiming he's a superhuman for getting better. So no updates on india cos we haven't really seen that much except bathrooms for the last few days - hopefully this will change and I can leave a less bodily function related post soon.
Love Sophie
Incidentally loving the random celebrity trivia from tom - I'm ashamed to admit I actually know who lizzie bardsley is and whoever gets her is a lucky lucky man...........

Hi Guys,

What an informative couple of days, I'm showing this to Mum tonight and she's going to be soooo proud of you both!(lol)I hope you both feel better soon, not because I care it's more that reading this is making me feel like clawing my eyes out and vomiting at the same time, great!
I will get Laurie to read the last one and of course he will be in touch with details of his bowel movements. You know he loves it!!
ps. who doesn't know who Lizzy Bardsley is?!?

knew it was gonna happen sooner or later!

hopefully your stomachs will have hardened now, at least you have one another to look after yourselves.

i recommend eating plain chappati and bananas with curd for a couple of days to line your stomachs.

oh yeah and drink loads of water - not fanta!

love you both

hey guys, i take out a couple of minutes from the blurry drunkness that's been oxford for the past few days (having a great time) to say hello and... well, i did find the whole vomiting/shits thing quite funny. i'm actually giggling to myself right now - that's kind of worrying. anyway, don't worry, it always happens in those countries to have some bad days spent in the loo. isn't asia great?!? hope you both get better soon. miss you lots. :)
btw, i know who lizzy is! she's bloody hilarious. i'd have to agree with harriet, WHO doesn't know?!?

I didn't know who she was, so I thought I'd do a bit of research. For the benefit of those unaquainted with her talents heres a brief biog:

Most of the people I talk to don't know who she is... And I talk to a lot of journalists.

Probably not high-brow enough, or summink...
