But make sure you take it easy - you're not back to 100% yet, I'll wager.

You sound like Mrs Flashback, she told me not to do the hike tomorrow

Do not do the hike tomorrow. You feel well because you've bounced. Your body will be depleted of salts and energy stores, so I would give it a miss. I'm also mildly concerned about Mrs Falshback - do you know what caused the gastro, and is it contagious?

She sounds a wise person (can I say woman?)

Not sure as the analysis showed no parasite in the sample taken. Indeed, I don't disagree with any of that! At least my arms and legs don't feel really heavy now, so that's nice.

You can indeed.

BTW, I noticed when I left earlier that right opposite was the British Embassy - so I guess it's one of the better hospitals in the city as embassy's tend to be in nicer areas.

$458 USD all up for my short stay.

of course you can it’s what she is, unless FB tells us she identifies differently! I am very much in favour of gender inclusive language when talking about offices (chairperson) or in general. But it would be a bit sad if we couldn’t call a man a man, or a woman a woman, or whatever the others types are - too many to list.

I was just making sure I didn't cause any offence. I had always assumed MrsFB was female but then doubt crept in in case it was a SSR. And given my propensity to open my mouth to change feet I though it best to be on the safe side.

Oh.. so a male partner be Mrs **.. how interesting this brave new world has become ….

Noooo idea what an SSR is so I'll just nod my head and say yes

Off for a little nap now, didn't get much sleep overnight.

I am totally with you. You don’t want to cause any offence but that can also complicate things and cause other types of unintended issues. I’m getting too old.

I agree - I have made a few faux pas just recently

Grated apple can be good for a recovering tummy.

 

[get me outta here]

A friend of mine decided it would be good if she didn’t wash her hair for a month. I can’t remember the reason, but it sounded pretty silly to me. I didn’t see her until about week three and I couldn’t work out whether to tell her that she smelled a bit like a bag lady now. I decided not to because I knew it would be over soon.

I think it is hair washing that will be the worst

Nap was good but feel completely wiped out now...... so yes, definitely not doing the trip tomorrow

Shame, last day in Nepal and as a result of today being a write-off we missed out on visiting Bhaktapur

You wagered right......

Or as a friend calls them, foxes’ paws.

 

[Flashback]

Not following Drs orders as well as I would have liked, only got 500ml of rehydrated liquids into me rather than the 2L requested... hopefully today will be better, although not feeling great!

She's a little unwell today, not quite as bad as I was but enough to not go on the sunrise hike. I'll be heading downstairs at 4.30am (so 30 minutes from now) to let them know she's not going.

Bummer for MrsFB.
