      I was 39 (again) last year.

  2. Bent double, like old beggars under sacks, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs And towards our distant rest began to trudge. Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind; Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.

      English would have become their first language in a place like Bath. It was either that or Latin.

      After a "walk" (Black Sheep, Bee Hive, Farmhouse, Belvedere - I can't 'remember' the others) up Lansdown Hill, I was most probably spouting 'Latin' of some sort...

      I've been very good and refused all refreshments offered and only bought two books... although there's always another day.

      Captain, tea / coffee were offered instantly after the handshake (no secret).

       

      I declined, not being used to the water in the Hall of Larks.

      Hope it works for you. The best relief I had for sciatica, 40 years ago in outpatient physio, was 8 weeks of traction treatment, strapped to a metal bed and gently pulled, while the leather straps creaked ooh nurse!! It really worked.

      Tim Dubya

      rembrow, sorry to hear that, I'm on about my 7th outpatient physio with the lovely Lucy ;)

      The orthopaedic team are making the decision about whether to refer me for an MRI at the moment, as I should have improved by now :(

      Things aren't too bad as I only wqork 6 hours a day for three days, so I'm 'walking wounded'

      RAID1 is not a true backup as any file problems will be replicated

      Cheers all. I will be building a NAS box for backup, just going for belt and braces approach to mitigate any hardware failures.
