We very rarely eat out and have not done for quite a while.

We were out on shopping and DH always pushes the trolley so I think it must
have come from that!

He became ill on Saturday but I didn't until Tuesday, so I caught it from
him I have some antiseptic wipes in the car to clean those handles. I
always used to so don't know why we stopped

But did I suspect a stomach bug

OH it was a stomach bug really. In face we both had gastro enteritis with
all that entails

Restaurant salad bars are also a risk, they are about the

Thank you. We haven't been able to eat all week and today was the first
time we wanted anything.
I am definitely on the mend but he is still having a few problems. Hopefully
that will pass and he will be very careful about using the gel and wipes
