I'm taking a break, but not by choice. Been bothered by sciatica for months, except on the bike, but had to stop that as well when I hit the deck three weeks ago on black ice. Been like v.p****d off, having to drive or take lifts. Spent today in hospital having epidurals in two prolapsed lumbar bits, so am now hobbling on stick. Boy 1 has pinched my ice bike to do his paper round, along with all my best stuff, the parasite.
The upside is that Codeine seems to go very well with Old Speckled Hen (and it doesnt say that on either label).
Lord knows when I'll be riding again - Monday is MY target.
