Go away, norovirus!

Our fave guests departed this morning, alas, the unwanted one remains.

Me to Mr B: Darling, how are you feeling?

Mr B: Kind of fluey.

Me: That's the first sign! Do you want me to make you a nest in the living room so you are close to the loo?

Mr B: No, I think I will be fine.

Rapid feet pass through the living room, where I have a nest on the sofa

Plaintive Mr B from loo: Darling, do you have a bucket?

I am making him his own nest now.

Oh dear. Both of you have my complete sympathy. We went through the norovirus earlier this year and it was pretty damn horrible what with the twinset and their mom and dad all having it at the same time. I was the only one who seemed immune so I played nurse which mostly involved doing copious amounts of laundry because the twinset NEVER made it to the loo in time.

*hugs to you both*

Oh you poor thing! How disgusting!

SG was a champion and used her bucket when she was vomiting through the night. The only thing I can say in favour of norovirus is that it is less awful than rotavirus or E. coli ... And I have lost over half a stone in two days, so I suppose it has some weight loss benefits ...
