In sickness and in health
Tuesday, March 24, 2009
I'll spare you the details but yesterday the winter vomiting bug caught up with me and I spent most of the day in bed. Come the evening I still couldn't face the thought of "proper" food but I did manage the following three-course meal - tomato soup, mango sorbet, and a bowl of, er, jelly beans.
It seemed to do the trick because this morning I was up at five, feeling OK, and now I'm in London for a book launch at Portcullis House followed by a Very Important Meeting to discuss a possible new project. I've felt better but, fingers crossed, I hope to get through the day without accident (if you know what I mean).
9.48 ... Feeling a bit queasy, if I'm honest. It's going to be a long day. Pass the sickbag, Alice ...

Be a brave little soldier and get well soon, Simon. Sure it wasn't food poisoning? Been eating at any swanky restaurants lately?
Alice. Alice. Who the xxxx is Alice?
I hope you get well soon but in the meantime at the G20 Summit you can pass on comments and messages to Gordie and Barak, no doubt doing a rendition of "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes."

And here's a clip of a friendly smiling Gordon Brown, to help cheer you up.
