If you had it your kids would definitely have it too plus, everyone you've been in contact with. It's a faecal/oral spread and because the vomiting/diarrhoea is uncontrollable it spreads rapidly in confined spaces eg, houses, schools, hospital wards, public transport (if any poor ****** is unlucky enough to be sick on it) The good thing is.... it only lasts about 24 hours and clears up on its own...


If you think you have it, let me know and I'll come round to yours....... I could do with a couple of days off work..
You don't want that winter vomiting thing Lettie. It's horrendous. You can't do anything. You would feel so rotten that you would wish you were at work!

I had it last year and thought I was on my way out with it. I have never thrown up so much in my life. Even when there's nothing left to throw up and you haven't been able to eat anything to replace it you're still retching away. It's vile.
