I have spent the evening being rather violently ill. I have no idea what did it--most of what came up was the half-liter of water I'd just drank, since I'd barely eaten today.

Annoyingly, that was my last bottle of water. Earlier today, I thought "only one bottle left" and then thought "I won't need more than that tonight, I'll get more tomorrow when I don't already have 4 bags of shopping". DOH! (Our tap water isn't very good, unfortunately. It's drinkable, but not in very large quantities.)

I'd managed to keep down a few sips of water earlier, so I tried a glassful as my mouth was completely dry. A few minutes later... Exorcist moment (and way out of proportion to the amount of liquid I'd drunk).

If this keeps up I'll be at Barnet Hospital A&E :-(

Still feeling very crap. I did stagger to Sainsburys and get more water. 500mL has stayed down.

I'm starting to feel vaguely hungry, but I know better than to try. Shame I don't have any saltines. I can't bear dry toast or milk-less oatmeal.

I may have to send Neil to Golders Green later to get me chicken soup. Dang it, next time I make my own I shall freeze a container for emergencies :-)

I'm going to risk some pasta with a tiny bit of butter and some salt (I can't face it dry). I haven't eaten since Monday and I didn't eat much then--my last really decent meal was Saturday night!!
