crutches already.
Cheers,

Good job - well done :-)

My brother-in-law had his left knee done, went fine but now he needs his right knee doing. Too much rugby when he was younger.
Was yours housemaid's knee? i.e too much kneeling?

Glad to hear the NHS got round to helping you Dave.
Take the exercises gently and you'll be fine.
Get out and take some of that bracing Essex air.

My wife would say I'd make a very bad House Maid Len! No - early
football injuries and playing all types of sport till I was sixty. Not
good for joints but at least my BP is 120/70 !
NHS was great - had to smile ironically when I had a white British
surgeon from Wolverhampton ! But this was followed by brilliant
multinational multi-ethnic nurses, doctors and technicians all who spoke
perfect English although there was one rather attractive Irish nurse
whose accent I struggled with slightly :-). We will be finished without
them.

Couldn't resist a political swipe eh?
Football injuries probably didn't help, it's good to be active though and
sixty is not old!

I hope my wife doesn't see this. She will say no excuse now for not
starting doing the housework, Will !

PS Why would anyone attempt to drive you out of this group?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
No one is attempting to but that one person (Jumper) who spoils the
Group more than any other goes beyond a pain sometimes making me less
inclined to be part of it, but as I said I won't leave because the good
people are vastly in the majority.

Thanks everyone, most kind, as you all are. Especially Lawrence with

Like I said before, I won't bow down and appease the likes of Jumper on
here or elsewhere and the irony was striking although in fact it was
mainly a thank you to the NHS.

But don't you see, you are part of the problem by not ignoring "Jumper"?
Every time you reply it feeds his ego and fires him up even more. If you
cannot killfile him then at least ignore him like most of us do. Ignoring is
not bowing down or appeasing.

It is when you've got a racist. Never appease. Dave's right. Just tell him he's a racist, but say no more. It's enough that he knows that you know. Don't say anything and you are effectively supporting him and his foul kind. Stand up and be counted, instead of being a coward and saying nothing. Remember Pastor Martin Niemöller's words; they ring very true here.

'First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.'

Have the courage to speak up against the racists, wherever you find them: don't stay silent.
