Default Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

Signed up to Future Health R1ff nothing to lose. You do well to use an exercise bike doing that amount, I think its about as interesting as watching paint dry! I have a set of semi professional rollers - now using those is interesting, one breaths a sigh of relief at the end of a session if I avoid falling off! Not tried using them since the 'event' - perhaps I never will now we shall see . I had a PSA test recently, my Dad had terrible prostate problems which I want to avoid, but it was not an easy process to get approved. Its not foolproof but its all thats available at present.

GPs do seem to dislike doing PSAs, yet it is an important diagnostic indicator that's used all the time by actual oncology specialists for monitoring the progress of patients with prostate cancer. In other words, GPs aren't always right!

(PS: I can't stand Henry Cole either)

I think you have to ask them for your results as it's part of a survey system. I think I got a letter through the post a while later. I'll check on Monday when I go. I'll takes owt that's free

On the exercise bike I find I like it in silence and it becomes meditative

Well done. When we cycled the C to C the second time we did use the exercise bike to try and lift our fitness a bit.

Got to agree re Cole - his patronising voice really does me - signed Grumpy old man.

The main incentive for me losing weight was the that I refused to buy 40" pants when my 38" ones got tight <grin> :O

I've dropped several notches on the old belt now plus of course the health and wellbeing are improved.

Also if I can succeed on getting down close to 12 stone from the 16 Stone I will I lose this unwanted pillion passenger !!!!

I keep this picture in mind to keep me going
