Out of the Games Cupboard. A random assortment of reflections, musings and a running commentary on life. Sunday, September 24, 2006. I might have broken my vestigial tail! On Friday I returned to the doctors to have my bottom felt! If it isn't broken then I will probably need to continue with pain relief and bottom-exercises until it goes away. The part of this I find really frustrating is that I don't know how I injured it in the first place! I haven't fallen on my bottom for years (honest! I thought wh...

I apologise for the long break but.my mind has been on other things. More precisely my mind has not been working at all well.

At present I cannot drive, operate machinery, go to the gym, go up ladders, carry Ellie on the stairs or make decisions involving legal responsibility. Needless to say I...
