    So sorry you were so ill, HHOD. Not exactly the perfect end to what sounded like a lovely few days was it? I hope you're feeling better now and can still enjoy the NT Christmas decorations. Sending hugs xx


    Do you know if any of your family and guests ended up feeling ill or was it just you?

    Thank you everyone. I still feel ill today. My tummy and back are very sore so it's painful to walk or twist around. I had to lie on my back all night as if I lay on my side my back and tummy were painful :(. It's not looking very likely that we'll be able to go to the NT place today.

    As far as I know none of the other party guests have been ill.
