We have a neck pain expert here. He may be along soon to offer good, effective advice. The rest of us can only make sympathetic noises.

Are you there, GOG? Allanv needs your words of comfort.

Morning people, this bloody tablet decided to log me out of here yesterday and every other site I frequent, I need a laptop again.

Ear wax is the bain of my life at the moment, every morning wake up deaf in my left ear ,which has its advantages I spoz.

She's off Christmas shopping to Cardiff today so the whole day vegging out in front of the telly watching box sets.

Orange is good on any car.

Waiting for bore fest to begin.

More later....

[Iva Barchetta]

Tea break.

2nd of the morning.

This isn't hard work.

It's in Reception.



You're either so used to it you don't see it any more or you're only using the Tradesman's Entrance to get to the bar.

My aunt even had a matching refrigerator.

TBH I've been using a window round the back to gain access.

You appreciate Battert closes "the open window" at the end of November until the beginning of March?

If you continue, you'll either be locked in the bar or locked out of the bar. Or be forced to develop an alternative method of entry.

It's December soon. Won't be long before Iva does his "drop in via the chimney" thing and that window can be painted shut for a while.

[Iva Barchetta]

I might have lost weight so access via the chimney will be easier and won't require use of force.

[sploosh]

I have spent all day removing my car's engine to find out what was wrong...... this.

Good idea. Draught exclusion has always been a problem at The Towers.



Mind you, the new Tower was so much better than the old one.



I simply don't remember how we coped. It must have been beastly.

And I don't know if anyone remembers the original tower, which is on the far side of the airfield and was only used in that first summer and consequently doesn't feature in the iconic TT badge, where we got down by tying vines to our legs and diving off to impress the local gals.

I say, chaps, sploosh has only disembowelled the Merlin!

The memo must have missed me.

6.30 am I was enjoying the joys of the M62/m60 on my to Macclesfield.

Neck pain is a literal pain in the neck, the only thing that touches it for me is gabapentin, have a chat with your GP and see if it is suitable.

[Iva Barchetta]

I'm going to plump for a broken ring on Splooshes piston...

Was it a tad Smokey ?

Gabapentin sent me on the road to nuttersville so ditched that and tramadol a long time ago via cold turkey.

I take co-codamol and Meloxicam now and this allows me to keep working.
But this morning was very hard and sore so woke early, very damn early...

Thanks for your thoughts though, much appreciated.

The neuro surgeon was quite surprised that I was completely functional on the dose of gabapentin I am on, I get the impression that I should be completely wasted, but I am fine
