    You havent addressed his points regarding food poisioning. I understoo that it does take over 12 hours before food will cause poisioning.

    Not at all. According to the NHS it can be as little as an hour.

    Ooh nasty. Yoghurts always cause me problems, too. Though that's usually because the second I peel off the lid they splat me in the eye. :/

    I had a Chinese meal from a carry out I rarely used,but was passing on my way home from work.Special curry (what I always get) & the prawns in it were'nt 'crunchy' (you know,they have a sort of crusty hardness when you first bite into them) but were soggy.
    I was talking on the white phone less than 20 minutes later & felt lousey for the next couple days! ( Said Chinese,in Bangor,was closed down a few weeks later,workmate,also from Bangor,told me the locals called it "The Golden Bowel".....)

    There is a Stuart Harper Entertainments based in Carrick, they have a website. Get in touch with him to see if he was on there that night. And i ate crab one night and was sick about two hours later.
