My boys once got a rather fantastic dose of food poisoning from one of the chinese restaurants. It struck violently and left its mark. My middle son had been vomitting but we all went out a walk. We ambled up the marina area where we noticed a rope barrier had been erected and a lot of local families were gathered watching boats coming in who had been competing in a fishing competition. Some fishermen were holding up huge fish and they were all getting bagged and weighed.

It was a Sunday at about 5pm and many of the children were dressed in special sunday clothes. Some families had all the kids in clothes made out of the same fabric, mainly cream or white, with the boys in wee dungaree short outfits and the girls in lovely dresses. A pretty picture.

We were keeping a special eye on middle son when oldest boy- who was standing right at the rope barrier leant over the barrier and off-loaded a massive projectile vomit covering about 8 square feet. All the Spanish children went scrambling off in all directions screaming as my poor wee boy stood gasping and weeping.

Smallest son -not yet vomitting- I stress the yet, started taking photos of oldest sons vomit pile while we tried to clean oldest boy up.

We crept away and tried to calm the boys down. Drinks of cold water all round.

When we walked past again the barrier had been moved further along and there was one of those wee cute chihuahua dogs sporting a red bandana, feasting on oldest boy's pile of sick while owner concentrated on fish weighing.

Cue- more photos from youngest boy of dog eating sick.

Never was happier to get back to our apartment.

Youngest boy's vomitting started as soon as we got to the airport and he manages to get through 9 sick bags on the plane.

Photos can be posted on flickr!

Lizglass,

Bet the guy in front of your son on the plane kept his seat up the whole flight. Little tip to you all , if the person in front tips his seat back too far , just call the attendants and ask for more sick bags, works every time !!!!!

Flickr has defeated me technical skills but was going to post photos of whole fried duckheads , scorpion kebabs and unmentional boiled sexual organs from me latest trip. Probably too rich for the sensitivities of many but might cut back the demand for chinese cuisine a bit in PP.

BonysLad :rollin :rollin

I'm back Jimbo, safe and well and probably running the risk of getting shut down but can you believe a group of cat stranglers ( Bagpipes ) and drums from Brittany in France serenading us all in Shanghai. Yoiks , what's the world coming to ?????
