Not for those with weak stomachs (explicit content warning!)

So there we were floating along, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Laos and to be honest it had to hit!!! As one fellow traveller described it "pissing out your ass". So true! Dehli Belly, Khatmandu Quickstep, Montezumas Revenge, whatever you want to call it every traveller has had it or is just about to get it... What caused it? Was it street stall mango sticky rice, pizza, noodles, or the random meat on a stick from the woman waving away the flies with her spare hand (we weren't that stupid!)???? To be honest we're still lucky even if our backsides have been well acquainted with the toilet seat (or not if you squat), cos neither of us have had it too bad though it's still awkward. I'm currently sitting it out (pardon the pun) today while the rest of them go off floating down the river on a tractor inner tube, bah humbug! Anyway.
You actually feel fine, then your stomach just calmly says "you have 20 seconds to get to a toilet, thank you, 19, 18, 17,.....RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
It's all good fun. Oh crap, gotta go........
