I swear byu Voltarol, I used it daily for a week after painting and it did the job fine. Does anyone on here use Flax seed? It is a marvelous thing to have in, It has so many benefits bringing down cholesterol and keeping your bowels open without any side effects.

I am still feeling well.I am relentlessly cheerful and full of myself. I expect I am getting unbearable for my nearest and dearest.

The idea of Buddhism appeals to me, I would like to think I will be reincarnated - hopefully as a cat. But unsure that I could cope with all that chanting in this life

Our society should start revering their "olds" as Asian families do I think older folks these days are much better educated and travelled, and very interesting company

I meant that my cheerfulness is getting unbearable,Jimmy. You are right about us oldies,we're interesting and experienced and extremely modest.

What I hate most about the creaky things is the equal and opposite reaction.
A few years ago I had surgery on my right knee - not the full monty; just an arthroscopic scrape-out, but I was on crutches for a few weeks and not fully mobile for a couple of months. During which time my left knee got cranky at having to do all the work and started to go the same way. A bit of hard work with the physio, including knee exercises - on both knees - which I still do faithfully every day, seems to have sorted that one out for now.
Then a couple of weeks ago I came a cropper in the local fruit 'n' veg shop, and landed on my left shoulder against a shelf. Bloody painful and can still hardly move the bugger. Consequently I'm doing everything with my right arm, which is now having a sooky fit about having to do all the work. Also because I usually get around with a backpack, and now have to carry it only over my right shoulder, my right lower back and leg muscles are getting cross an'all.
To save the blushes of the gentlemen I won't go into too much detail about the hot flushes at night causing me to throw all the blankets off and turn the fan on, and the resultant leg cramps from the cold air.
Sorry to hear about your missus, Arena. I hope she's going okay.

Prue, an interesting post especially as my wife is going through the knee pain with arthritis right now. We used to have to change the bedding every day as when my wife went to bed she sweat that much.

I think most of us here can relate to your post,Prue. Hot flushes are far behind me now,but the creaky joints are very much part of my life. I have been lucky lately,I haven't had a flare up of arthritis for a couple of months,fingers crossed. The warm weather will help a bit.

I recently ordered a new rail for our blinds, and ordered it in mms rather than cms. The guy called me and asked if it was correct as it would only have been 10 ins long

The decimal point is in the right place , Jimmy.
It's a new treatment that boosts the immune system.
