I am 24 and I have no idea. I think it has been down to food poisoning more than anything. I remember for my 9th birthday my parents took me to Butlins and the kitchen turned out to be in a right state when we arrived. We didn't each much in the little apartment but I did catch something and spent days v*ing everything straight back up. We ended up cutting the holiday short. I spent the entire trip from the West Coast of Scotland to The North East being ill, I remember we had to make a very quick stop on the side of a dual carriage way because I had to get out of the car. Never been able to face going back to a place like it again.
