Cos I'm having me knee done today - arthroscopy - on the right leg.
Had t'other done a few years ago, so hopefully all should be ok in a few days.And no, I don't want to practice on your T500 Richard with its left side kicker, thank you very much!!

There goes yer tap dancing career.

[Alan H]

No tap dancing for a bit - unless it's in the bath!!
Anyway, they did what they needed to - I asked if they could just fit a grease nipple to the knee somewhere so I could give it a pump when the bearing sounded rough, but they said not for some reason. The arroe on me leg was so they knew which one to do - I also wrote 'not this one' on t'other just in case.
They also painted my leg with some red stuff - similar to Suzuki Candy colour, but more wrinkled - for disinfectance reasons.
And also a pic of a Canaletto, or Canneloni/Cannacan'ta or summat in me hand.

A free pot of coffee and a very nice sarnie (also free) - so I really did enjoy those, lots of pretty nurses pandering to my whims - under the supervision of Lynn unfortunately, so I couldn't find out how good personal service in BUPA was.
Now just got to limp about for a few days until it stops hurting like a barsteward.
Oh well, I'll just have to spend more time on ebay ordering 'stuff'.

BUPA, in Yorkshire? I would have thought it would have been a hammer and chisel job int' back yard Hope it all goes good for you mate. Get well soon. Kev

Oo, proper medicine, there! I like the inspection hatch thingy. Can you keep it?
Get well soon,
Mike
ps: got to watch the cover on BUPA. Apparently, something as commonplace as accidentally getting a superhero stuck in your backside, they don't want to know. Down to A&E for a 4h wait for that, cheeky second-rate swines.

It's a pump up crushed ice cooly thing for wrapping round poorly knees - and it'll get some serious use!
I had the left knee done a few years ago without any problems, but this (right) one hurts like buggery and it's stopping me getting in the garage.
So I've got anti-inflammatory and different painkiller tablets, which I'm trying to avoid as I hate tablets.

Must get some islambiotic bacon to stop me turning into a terrorist.

Ha,thought you Yorkie's were tough,,,,"when I we'rt a lad ha to crawl 20 miles every day,on me belly t' use t' loo,which were a hole in bottom o'"
well you get the idea,,,,,

Joking aside,hope it all go's well for you,know what a bad knee is like,waiting for a new one myself.As long as you can still throw your leg over,the bike that is, ,when it all heals.Then again I suppose that Lynn will be hoping it's not just the bike Slap my wrists,
See you in July,
Cheers,John.
