    Sciatica

    I've just remembered the time that I was in hospital with a broken neck( it was only a cracked vertebrae). I'd been given morphine and something else , and was taken for a scan in a wheelchair. I was sitting in the chair minding my own business , when someone walking past asked me if I was OK. It turned out to be a stunning blonde nurse . She lifted my head up , and said is it just the medication love? , all I could do was sort of grunt , but as this stunning nurse looked at me , I could feel the dribble running over my bottom lip , and down my chin .

    It took me by surprise when I had the scan . I forgot to add broken neck to the list as well .

    Sciatica

    The last time that I had a really bad episode with my back , I was given gabapentin and Co codamol . I lost about 6 weeks . I'm not one for getting stoned and I really didn't enjoy the experience. Several things that I do remember, are the amazingly beautiful colours of the goldfish , that were living in my toilet bowl , and being able to understand what the birds were saying , as I sat outside the caravan in my woodland. My Mrs reckons that I was listening to them for 4 hours before I snapped back to reality. My back was still agony , I just didn't care .

    I should have added . I wouldn't swim in the sea if I lived in Blackpool. I'd rather keep the bad back .
  5. My mate had a huge terrapin in his koi pond for years . If he ever needed to do anything that involved putting his hands in the water , he'd have to drain it until he could find the terrapin , then remove it while he did the work , because it used to try to bite him . He was scared to death of the thing .

    I only tried the swimming baths. To be honest , if I lived by the sea , I'd swim every day . I love swimming in , the sea , rivers , lakes , but I really can't get excited about swimming pools.
  7. Fair play to him , we all need to make a living .

    Sciatica

    I tried swimming, but it didn't work for me. I'd guess that everyone is slightly different, and the pressure is in a slightly different place. I didn't honestly think that walking would help much , but it's turned out to be a life saver.

    Sciatica

    My back is agony no matter if I'm in a thin phase or a fat phase. The full list is. Arthritis Osteoarthritis 5 bulging discs 1 collapsed disc Major sciatica on the left Minor sciatica on the right It's fecked for plenty of reason Too fat sometimes , lifting weights that are stupidly heavy ( I used to be able to lift the back of most cars to get axle stands underneath) , working as a mechanic for years( and lifting engines in and out on my own) , working as a lorry driver for years , and a knife straight through my leg. Whenever I walk , I ha

    Sciatica

    My back is shot to pieces . I have major permanent sciatica on the left hand side, and I haven’t really been able to feel my left foot for years . The only thing that has ever held it at bay is walking . I walk every day if possible, even if its only half a mile . If I can't walk for any reason, it starts to get rapidly worse within a couple of days.
  12. I'd never heard of galgos until I looked at this thread . Why do they treat them so badly ?.
  13. Snap. I'm on easy street financially, but I've been dirt poor and didn't like it. I never spend money on myself , I keep hold of it , just incase.
  14. Mmmmm. That looks spot on .

    Pet hates.

    Whenever I've had the computer scam , I've managed to string them along for about an hour before I go " oh , you mean I have to turn the computer on ".

    Pet hates.

    I've had them on for several hours . I'd tell them that I'm taking the call on the toilet , and tell them that I'm constipated and make straining noises , and I've even told them that I'm laying in the bath, and I'm touching myself. They're so desperate to scam you out of money , that they'll just keep talking to you. I used to get really fed up of them , until I joined the 419baiters site , and learned how to play them . The way I look at it is , it's great entertainment, and it's free , and while they're making me chuckle , they aren't scamming an old person out of their life s

    Pet hates.

    Noooooo, be nice to them. It's great fun. I had the first one for ages this morning. I managed to string him along for about half an hour before I told him that I'd died in the crash that they wanted to help me claim for . Apparently I'm a "bloody barsteward "
  18. Yes but they didn't have feathers and a beak
  19. I'll have a go at most things, but feck that for a game .
  20. I've saved you a very special one ( it's actually a giant otter ).
  21. Thankyou for the eeeerrrr plug . Fresh Christmas hamsters ( ready oiled with tincture of ginger) , will be on sale in all good pet stores from the 17th .
  22. You must be joking , he's the richest man in Norfolk. He owns , three turnips, a goat , a Morris minor , and a january 1968 edition of razzle ( the one with May West and the pop up boobies).

    I used to have a ball as well. I've used allsorts over the years . I've no idea why , because it's never actually frozen .

    I'm guessing that would be very difficult to do . Just bolt them together with a large plastic flange in each ibc , and cut the hole out . That's another one to add to the project list.
