There's something like a 50/50 chance of you getting some kind of food poisoning from eating oysters

The sell them in Folkestone harbour, I always wondered why it's limited to 49 per customer.

There's about a 50/50 chance of you talking out of your arse.

(I helped save b3ta! Kroney, Tue 24 Jun 2014, 14:57, Reply)
There must be a much higher chance of that

Especially if you eat a couple of those oysters.

All those people living two and a half years ago must be terrified.

Still relevant and terrifying only three months ago, when the FSA put out a research call about it

Maybe Gormo should put forward his 'put them in fresh water for a bit' method?

Yeah, the original article did say that there wasn't any increased risk from eating raw oysters.
So it's basically saying "the situation is as it always has been, sometimes a raw oyster will give you the shits".

I heard about 50% of the time

(I helped save b3ta! tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 24 Jun 2014, 15:16, Reply)
So if you eat 2 oysters, you'll definitely get noro?

They're professionally treated.
But that's essentially what the treatment consists of.

How often do you swim about just shoving things in your mouth?

Probably not more than once a week

I like those Mars Bars they float in the pool
Keep me going during the long swims

Ooo, I've suddenly got a craving for a bounty.

As I've missed the boat for acceptability of doing a dirt in a pool as an infant (did the bath once, lol) at what age does it become acceptable again?

(I helped save b3ta! Slippery Mick ‏, Tue 24 Jun 2014, 15:35, Reply)
i did it in the sea once
it floated, violently

I dug a hole and shat in it at the beach once.
Wonder if anyone ever found it.

Isn't this the sort of thing I have to give up on doing as an adult?

(I helped save b3ta! Slippery Mick ‏, Tue 24 Jun 2014, 15:50, Reply)
Out the sea, maybe.
They swallow up all the shit in the sea so you need to put them in fresh water for a while so all the grot osmosisies out of them.
