Day 10 – Two Bob Bits

Seemingly some of the delicious things yesterday did not agree with me.

I was reminded of two things today. One was a poetry session years ago, hosted by Giovanni “Spoz” Esposito. He recited a poem of his own devising in which the protagonist experiences a bout of illness. He describes his bum like a boxer; battered around the ring 😂

Thanks to Rachel for this pic ☺️

Secondly I was reminded of the sketch by the comedian Micky Flanagan where he experiences a bout of digestive distress when on holiday. Farts being extremely risky and “it coming out like emptying a radiator” were relevant phrases 😂

I was also listening to some of the audiobook of Lords and Ladies by Terry Pratchett, and he has a line of “goes like turpentine through a donkey” 😂

So today has not been the expected day. No exploring of Ålesund. Just waiting for stomach cramps, and related symptoms to subside. At least the view from the apartment was nice ☺️

Luckily I don’t have 250 miles to ride tomorrow. Oh wait….. 😂

Thanks for reading Day 10. Let’s hope tomorrow is better!
