| Re: Sea sickness Worst fear when you get on a boat is being sick? Wish it was. I have to say I mentally see the sinking scenes of Titanic but I do have a very strong irrational fear. Yes I can swim but it's open water and what is in it(or what I can imagine is in it) that I'm scared of. Anyway sea sickness, aye, I get sick walking up a gangplank and apparently it's an imbalance problem for me. I got 24 hour morning sickness right through both of my pregnancies. The one boat trip I went on with hubby I spewed for 6 hours and yes I was considering throwing myself in. I threw up the last time I was coming back on the Dunoon western ferry coz it was a little rough and I was crying I was so scared we were gonna die. My trainer at the gym will not put me on a cross trainer ever again after he forced me to do 10 minutes and I cried the whole time before I brought up the water I had had to drink. I don't think it helps at sea that I am a total feartie. If you ever see a woman sitting crying on the lower dartmouth ferry it's me by the way. Tablets work for occasional spewers, wristbands too( it's all down to acupressure points) but as someone said already if your'e as bad as me sit under a tree or stick to huge boats with stabilisers! __________________ Sometimes it's just not worth chewing through the restraints.

| Re: Sea sickness A pot noodle on the boat always helps, thats an old salty sea dog remedy (my dad). Always remember to eat a greasy fried egg sandwich when mopping up sick and offer it to the person who has just been sick  . I see you like david brent fishin' widow!! |

| Re: Sea sickness Yip. A true office god. Love it when my staff don't realise when I'm takin the rip! The skipper on the boat trip from hell I was on said I should drink a cup of sea water and then I'd be fine. I told him to go away. __________________ Sometimes it's just not worth chewing through the restraints. Visit www.yourscotsroots.com and find out Furry Boots Yir Fae |
