Felt ill for most of today.

Had a headache, felt shaky, kept losing concentration. I also went to the toilet a lot. As we were studying hygiene and food preparation, it occurred to me that I had Gastroenteritis. It didn't help that we had almost on long session from 9am to 2pm. There was a break at 11am, and the trainer was keen to go all the way until 2, but I was really flaking out, pining for lunch. Had a bagel and that kept me going until 2pm. I didn't feel better until I had another bagel, an orange and apple, and a couple of panadol (oh, and a giant choc muffin at the hospital helped too). I think too that air conditioning didn't help much either.

After the course I visited Jenn in hospital. She seemed happier, but being doped up on morphine and a nicotine patch may have helped. Seems it was a virus that knocked her down, and she may be going to rehab as an out patient to exercise her limbs. I told her about Bobby and she seemed optimistic that she'd be returning to her flat.

Did a little shopping for colour coded anti-bacteriological chopping boards on the way home, and bought chips, fish and burgers for Kevin (who had the same symptoms) and myself.

Long day.
