Evening All,
Thanks again for your concerns

I spoke to the Dr today after doing much sleeping (didn't turn into work again, wanted to but really couldn't). He said about five other people had already seen him today with the same thing! He's calling it 'a summer infection' and says it can take up to 2 weeks to clear (if that's true I've got another week of it, yay

- but I think *hope* I may actually be on the mend now, esp. after all the rest I've had!!) He said he would prescribe antibiotics and give me a note for work next Weds if things are no better/are worse.
Now, that aside....
All of you about to head off for the World have fun!!! I'm sorry my trip reports were not done before you set off but I'll hope to do some more in your absence (more for you to catch up on that way

) All I will say about M:S is that if you get the chance then take it, but I (and my Mum too actually, and Jon to some extent) felt ill and weak-kneed for quite a while afterwards. It's very intense, but you dont' feel like you are spinning so that is not something to worry about!
Whatever you do, have a fabulous time!!!
Kimmar - Sorry to hear about your cancelled trip - just plan a longer, more luxurious one next time to make up!!!
Bernie - So sorry to hear the tragic news. Matt and Chris and their families are in my thoughts.
Sorry it's short but I've gotta get myself off. Going to watch a funny film (I'm thinking 'What Women Want', 'While You Were Sleeping' or 'Lilo and Stitch' before I get some sleep (it may be 10pm here but I've slept most of the day!!))
Cya,
Gaspode
