Hilly wouldn't put down gravel for that very reason.

Back from the consultant. Fortunately I have a good spine, and no degeneration that one would typically expect at my age of 46 (he was the same age and said he'd be happy if he had a back as good as mine).

He is happy with the healing and the 10 degrees of kyphosis (spine tilt) isn't 'normal' but it's within tolerances and shouldn't give me much bother when older. I will most likely still get twinges and pain for the rest of my life, but he has said I can exercise properly without worrying too much about pain being an indicator of something wrong. Pop some pain killers and don't do too much was his answer !

I have just ran out of seafood sauce. I put it on tuna, which makes it all more moist palatable.

You can get the same effect from Mayo, chopped Capers, Paprika and Vinegar.

I had a lovely piece of cod and salad for supper.

No fish sauce was involved just oil and vinegar with a squeeze of lemon.

Fruit salad for dessert

That's all encouraging news. Congratulations to your body!

He said I won't have any degenerative spinal conditions as I age as it would be showing by now (having had a range of CT, MRI and Xrays). The discs were all nice and healthy, other than the one between T12 and L1 that got squished. My injury was very like an 'old lap belt' fracture where your body bends right over. The L1 was healing well.

I've just got to build up slowly, and that also includes the return to work as I'll be very tired.

I did say, 'so I'm all-right to start more Mountain Biking then, but I'm not telling the missus as that's more dangerous'. He said he sees more MTB'ers than Roadies, especially broken clavicles.
