Nai - brilliant advice. I planned to not let him have dairy that day but I wouldn't have thought of bananas, I also will buy some ginger ale. and yeah the spew in the car was such a good feeling for me LOL

kawazuki - sitting him in the middle is a great idea, unfortunately I havea little hatch back so cant do this. I hope both our journeys are spew free!

daydream believer - I had heard of the wrist bands, i might buy a couple of them and water crackers are a good idea too

dee - fruit kool mints, check (this trip is gonna cost me a fortune!)

avas mum - he love ginger bikkies, great one!

marlene - i love you!!!!! I am going to the chemist straight away to buy some!

bjrose - yep, DS is always asking me to stop going round corners and over bumps LOL

thanks so much guys, I am confident we shall have a good clean trip
