Don't beat yourself up, these things happen. At the end of the day, nobody was hurt, and if you still have the content, you can always re-upload, or even remake if not.

The main thing is that you take care of you first and foremost.

Take care

Jon

Thanks Jon appreciate it.

I saw a post about the Internet i have a few things to say about when I get back.

Don't rush if it will compromise your health.

Yeah, that's why I've just done nothing.

Even changed my mobile number in the blowout.

That's not so good, but I can understand how your travel troubles may have been a trigger.

Rest up and be well.

I'm now calling it Trauma Travel.

...

My gilfriend is the same. She doesn't like sitting next to people on the bus so puts her bags next to her. Then people shake their heads tutting at her her as she's taken 2 seats. Same problem with people, they can't process more than the thought of "she's in the way". They don't consider she has mental health issues and even being on the bus is a big deal for her.

I totally get that. It's more common for women to be like me. I get it from my mother.

I don't like sitting next to people. Unless its a hot chick, then that's OK :lol:

I must admit, on the rare occasion that I have had to use the train, it's always felt like a caged chicken farm.

On one occasion, I couldn't even move my arms at all, as there was physically no free space.

I always think to myself 'why do people put up with this nightmare?' and 'isn't this illegal/some sort of fire hazard?'

I guessed that other people didn't mind it and it was just me.

So I TOTALLY get where you are coming from. Same with buses and planes.

I don't even enjoy going into town to a restaurant anymore, as you are invariably sat under someone else's armpit because the tables are so goddam close.

The worst are those 'food factory' or all-you-can-eat buffet places.

The one in Southampton...'World Cuisine' I think?? There was lots of choice, but seating was VERY cosy. I managed to get through the meal, then chose a pudding and came back to my seat.

I was about to tuck into some nice looking eclairs/cream cake, when the woman sat next to me (closer than I would even feel comfortable with on a first date with someone. It was literally, smell my sweat closeness) slaps down a plate of seafood. I was almost sick.

Suffice to say, I left the pudding and walked out in a mix of disgust and feeling green and ready to barf.

That sux :( I only get as far as mcds drive through these days. Everywhere just cramped. People just in the way. Tables not cleared or cleaned. Normally kids and pushchairs all over the place. Normally screaming.

Years ago I used to like going to places. Sometimes go out with a guy from work when it was quiet. Though one place I used to goto with my ex was nice, until it changed hands and they buggered the layout up making it hard to get to your table. Also tried to make it more posh by making an appointment , to which nobody was ever about to show you to your table. Gave up in the end.

Pizzahut was nice at times. But all you can eat was just kids in the way all the time.then people keep pestering you as they were sucking up for tips all the time. Just had enough in the end .

Was a span of supermarket restaurants. Just was expensive for what food you got. Thing is, its where they offloaded all the out of date food to and charged 5x more for it!! Unbelievable.

Now I want a gammon with egg, fries and pineapple :lol:
