I let them know to expect you in Cornwall about 4pm then.

I am having to put my plans on hold. Doctors last monday.X rays on the tuesday. Disc on my L5 is playing up and I am back on the pain killers but worst is my neck. I have never experienced pain like it. It hurts to turn my neck. The orthopedics guys say scoliosis. what I know is I cannot lift my own head, never mind the weight of a lid as well.

Don't get old guys... My back was a simple stupid. I jumped out of a perfectly good aircraft and landed reasonably well. and fell down a WWII slit trench on the airfield. Next day walked in the garage and my little bro was working under a car and the jack(stupid git ,we always told him to use axle stands) started to topple and I took the front end weight whilst he got out. 2 days later age 22 I was in hospital with back pain and suffered ever since.

Morphine is a great solution to the pain. But the antics some of these doctors get up to, I would rather have the pain.

Lynne/Michelle asked today were we going and I could only give a definite maybe.

Sorry to hear you are in pain Tim. I fell out of a window fooling around at school aged 17 and as I age that moment of youthful stupidity comes back to haunt me more and more. Fingers crossed you get some relief from it soon.

If I can get out of working the weekend I'll probly trailer the bike up as I don't think my knee could stick all that way. I don't want to be stuck in the wilds on my jack.

I'm not coming now. Will see some of you at TOGMIE I guess but hope the weather stays glorious for you - in fact the chances of that happening are much improved now I'm staying away.

If anyone is looking for accommodation nearby I'm cancelling a twin room here later so this will be available. http://www.boatfarm.co.uk/ Let me know if you are interested as I'd be happy to see if she would let you take my £20 deposit off the cost if you wanted to take the room.
