Was at a wedding yesterday, was the designated driver. The place was a country club and the golf course looked good. The food was delicious it was going well until I came over a bit nauseous. Told the missus, who thought I was playing up. Then watched the first dance, told her I was just going to the toilet. Then after 30 minutes she got worried. I drove home about an hours drive with frequent stops.... Never been this rough before my chest and throat were raw.
The missus rang up the hotel, and they said the will check the fridges etc, they also asked the other guests at breakfast ( seriously if you have this would you show up for breakfast!). So now on a 24hr minimum starve ...

Good news is I did not put any weight on :eek:... There is always a bright side.
wonder if the hotel will come back to us or live in denial?

What did you eat there? Unless it was rice, chicken or shell fish, I doubt it would happen that quickly. What and when did you eat earlier in the day?

And get well soon, nowt worse than feeling sick.

Chilly prawn canapés I think as those are what the missus passed on everything else she had and is fine. Can take 20 minstrel or 4hrs to hit depending on severity. I think I was getting it 3hrs after consumption.

The mrs got it from rice. It took 20 minutes, and Then it was quite spectacular, from a spectators point of view. Luckily I had opted for nan bread instead of rice.

Get well soon.

No chance the hotel will admit anything.

minstrels ... That was a Freudian slip, I can destroy a family bag and still go some !

I am starving, the wife made a cooked breakfast for my parents and has just eaten lasagne ... Tomorrow breakfast will be my first meal, and if that stays goddam house will be stripped of all goodies.

Food poisoning from mass catered prawns, eh? Who would have thought that would ever happen.

You should report it to the local environmental health department. There could be a food storage/hand washing issue.

This. I had a bout a few years ago after eating at a local pub. The Dr informed environmental health himself, said they have to report every case that has been contracted from a public eating place.
