Well my wife just brought me home some Jelly babies to help thicken things up a bit.
Trouble is I haven’t had any since I was a youngster and I just love the taste and will probably eat the lot in a few minutes.
Lovely jubbly as dell boy would have said.

Update, plenty of Jelly babies eaten and no such luck with the very loose bowel movements so far.

You'd need to check this out, but there was an old-fashioned remedy using kaolin - which is chalk-based - to firm things up. I can remember my grand-dad using this and - the vet gave it to our cat who had the same issues. Worth enquiring at the pharmacy I'd say. Eggs are also notorious of course. Rainie x

Rainieday, I remember the bottles of kaolin and morphine, it used to separate and you had to vigorously shake the bottle. Hard boiled eggs and rice both can bind the bowels. A nice plate of kedgeree would be good. Kind regards Frank.

I prefer Jelly Beans myself, great with a cup of tea.

Take care, Tom.
