Best laid plans....
Sometimes things don't quite go to plan. This weekend (starting tomorrow morning) the missus and I are meant to be flying down to London.
We had both been looking forward to it and had taken time off work to make the trip happen. Then of course the typical thing happens. Last weekend I got sick.. really sick. I thought it was food poisoning .. but food poisoning doesn't linger for as long as this!
The current theory is that it's flu. Today, the day before we are due to fly the realisation suddenly came up that I am probably not well enough to travel. I am constantly exhausted, I have headaches, chills, nausea and a couple other choice symptoms..
The point behind the trip was to attend my little nephew's birthday. There was going to be a kids party and everything. The question was also raised wether it was appropriate for me to be near lots of little children in my current state of health. The answer is certainly no.
So are plans are ruined. I had hoped last weekend .. in fact right up to the last minute that i'd be ok to go. That I would have improved and felt well enough by the time we left to manage it through the weekend. Needless to say we are both very dissappointed and at a bit of a loss as what to do next.
I'm not really all that bothered about the money we will now loose on the plane tickets etc.. but it does really bother me that we won't make it down to see my nephew.
Sorry this post is a little depressing... i suppose I feel I needed a little bit of a vent... I hope the pretty pictures from a previous London trip will help soften the sad tone of the text.
Thanks for Looking.

Thanks @pixresteemer :)
So sorry to hear your still not feeling well and dissapointed ot not see the family, but you made a good choice to look after yourself,
I ignored my health to many times when I was younger in similar situations and with age I have learnt my lesson
Thanks, that is really reassuring.. I went to work twice this week and I think doing that set back my recovery.. I feel guilty about not going but you are right. I think it was the right choice.
I'm s bit like you, I have often ignored my health in the past.. I wonder if that is why I am getting sick so frequently now.
it could be a factor, lets hope you feel better soon
Thanks :)
I'm sorry to hear you are not feeling well, I hope you get better soon! 🤗
Thanks! It's really fucked up my week! But what's worrying is that its happened twice in the last few months... which is very abnormal for me.. normally i never get sick!
Have you gone to the doctor to make sure it isn’t something more than a persistant flu?
Not yet, I have an appointment but its not until after the weekend.
You do not go after my friends! Not especially because you played with fire and got burned by it, even after I warned you.
I flagged your comment because you didn't come here to read my post or comment on it or even take part in a conversation, you only came here to harass and annoy someone else. I don't want or need to see that kind of anger and negativity on my page.
I'm sorry you had to deal with that idiot because he is mad at me, it's unacceptable for him to go after my friends.
Its cool, we had a productive chat. Thanks for having my back x
You can't have a reasonable conversation with an idiot but you did do pretty well 😂 I flagged his one post worth all of 0.4dollars because he has been poking me for a long time already, he can't get over that and now keeps harassing everyone who has anything to do with me.
Oh right I thought maybe he had plagiarised a post or something. He is a very angry person.
Well that has nothing to do with me...
I won't flag anymore of your comments if you stop calling me names, like 'piece of shit' and 'imbecile'.
Thank you I appreciate that and accept your apology.
