    Any home remedies for morning sickeness??
    urgh I feel rough :rotfl:

    Ginger... some people prefer tea, biscuits.

    Others will give more suggestions, mine was grated ginger in hot water, as an infusion type drink.

    No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.
    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.

    I'm feeling loads better today, still not up to loads of flying but definately on the mend I think.
    Yesterday I did some knitting, played games on fb and sorted out my emails as I thought that would come up at some stage:)
    I also kept looking at my lists wondering if there was anything more I could do. I never thought I would be itching to do housework.:rotfl:It just shows the difference the lists have made to me and I can't thank everyone enough for this forum.:T
