School week 2

Had to send Hal off with a travel pill today. Someone gave him chocci biccis Friday afternoon with unfortunate results on the way home. I don't want to have to keep doping him up for the journey so I went down to the pharmacy after he left and had a chat. They've suggested Sea Bands acupressure wrist bands. http://www.sea-band.com/UK/uk_seaband.htm I've picked a pair up but is there anyone out there got any experience of how well these work?

Not sure if I could get him to eat crystalized ginger, maybe the biscuits that Mike suggests will work. At least he will eat them.

Shamenka suggests liquorice root - advantage is it's naturally sweet and tastes like a sweetie anyway.

She also suggests trying to get him on a gluten free diet. (you know what she's like about her gluten free diet - according to her half the ills of the Western World are due to gluten in the diet)

She also suggests trying to get him onto a gluten free - you know how she is about her gluten free diet. She's had Scott on it for years and swears it helps with his ADHD and other behavioural symtoms (at one point one of his guidance counsellors suggested he might be Aspbergers) and now she's got Derek on it too.
