    DH used to recycle the bottles as well :o I do have some collapsible water containers stored away.

    I got a nasty shock when I found some little boxes of baby figs and enthusiastically snacked on them. I didn't dare leave the house the next day. :eek:

    A real case of TS hitting TF. :D

    Mind you, if you really want a clean out, I'm reliably informed that Picolax is the way to go, and indeed to keep going. :D

    It's been a good 48 hours, since I put the tea in the Heated Travel Mug.

    I just emptied it and, although the drink was pretty rancid (good job the mug is stainless steel), it was still moderately warm.

    had to use Picolax as colonoscopy prep and I was warned not to go too far from a loo after taking it. It did work - eventually - but nothing like as dramatic as I had been warned

    Now magnesium is a different matter:eek: I changed to a calcium tablet that includes magnesium and it was, frankly, a problem till I discovered that adding activated B6 sorted it
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!

    I drank a bottle of castor oil in a bid to shift DS into being born.

    It shifted lots, but not DS who stayed in another week - mind the day after i drank it (and had stopped visiting the loo), i don't think i've ever felt better. It made me wonder about colonic irrigation :p
    I wanna be in the room where it happens
