I want to be a fairy!

Ouch... I had a really unpleasant end to a lovely day last night. Just as I was getting into bed, I had crippling stomach pains that doubled me up and caught me off guard.
I thought it was wind at first, but as I got caught out like that a week ago, I wasn't going risk having to wash every bit of bedding again, but I went to the toilet straight away and just sat there groaning.
I had broken out in this cold sweat all over my body and I was still doubled over, as no wind or anything. I had to try and remove my clothes as I sat there, as I really felt ill where I was so hot and I thought I was going to pass out.
I honestly thought that I would be pooing through the eye of a needle once it all kicked in, but no that wasn't the case. Yes I did go a hell of a lot once I started, but it was all normal.
So what brought that on?
The only thing I could think of, was that the doctor on Monday at Papworth, was poking my tummy about and maybe it shifted things that hadn't been shifted for a while?!

Thankfully I slept wonderfully well again, which was just as well as I needed all the energy that I could muster today.
Reni, the twins, plus one friend and myself set off to 'Tropical Wings' today.
What a fab place!
When we went into the butterfly sanctuary, it was absolutely spell binding, almost like walking into a dreamworld or film set about secret gardens. You half expected fairies to be hiding in the undergrowth, it was so magical. Well ok, maybe it's just me in my strange and muddled head that expects to see fairies!
Honestly though, I have never seen butterflies so big. There were these large blue butterflies, that you half expected to hear tinkling music as they flew past you. Then there were even larger white lacy ones flitting around and lots of cute red and black ones that flew about in mini packs.
Actually did you know that a 'pack' of butterflies is called a 'kaleidoscope'... what an accurate description for something so picturesque!
Where I was wearing a brightly coloured top, I was quite popular until they realised that I wasn't a walking plant and they would fly away from me. I loved it there.
Then we went on to feed the wallabies, watch the bird display, talk to the parrots and go 'ahhh' at the meerkets who were playing in the sunshine. And they really do sit like the toy ones on that famous TV advert!
I want to go again please.
I came back knackered and that was with Reni pushing me in the wheelchair for a lot of the time, as my oxygen ran out.

After a rest, I went out with my sister and her husband for the evening to buy them a meal as a thank you for him putting my shed up for me and getting heat stroke too boot.
We went to Baumann's Brasserie in Coggeshall, as I had picked up a discount voucher at the 'Essex Food and Drink festival', otherwise it would have been a meal at the local Chinese!
Very fab food.
So I now feel like a little stuffed piggie. Just glad I had only eaten a child's size hot dog at 'Tropical Wings' and that was it all day, as the food was really rich and gorgeous so I just had to clear my plate. No pudding though, but I still found room for the dark chocolate truffles that came with my coffee... Bye bye diet!
As Ed said though, it was my last supper before going to the diet club on Monday.

Lots of love Debbie x
