Brrrrrrrrr,Grandmoon. I just got back from the beach on the NSW mid coast. Mind you, we have had an awful winter like everyone else.
Darki....my bestie has arthritis in her spine...suffers terribly. Her chiro recommended that she get one of those pump up exercise balls from K-mart. She thought the idea was silly. However, she got one....used it per instructions....very sore the first 48 hrs...THEN a vast improvement in mobility and pain control with no drugs. She now swears by it. Just thought I would mention it. She paid $17 for the ball and the pump..

morning all♥
still breathing...
No darki it wasn't an ambulance just a small sedan, driven by a 60ish man....OH reckons he was older than him:O.....they have various cars and drivers, so you never get the same one twice....well haven't yet. It's not free....$20 for this trip which is quite a way away to a hospital diabetic clinic to visit the podiatrist for his toe ulcer.... it costs that much in petrol for us to do it, and then we can NEVER find a parking spot at the hospital. I either park illegally or just drive round and round for half an hour. Car park is always full. Much easier all round. Well it was except for this old speedster. Puts me off a bit...not safe at all.
Well a brilliant idea gil, but no not with a speedster.. that is a worry... report him?

We didn't call them City Mobbers....more like 'Westies" think my kids did the same.
Ha Gilly. We surfers weren't discriminatory....city mobbers were anybody who had to cross the bridge to get to Manly, including those from the eastern suburbs.
I hope all you out there are OK. Beautiful day here. After I have done a load of washI am going to the beach to catch some Vitamin D. I was getting cabin fever with all the weather we have been having.
... or come over by ferry :^O
I must get outside today for some Vit D too

I think they can be a good idea but I used one last year in the gym and came off it rather badly.. have wondered if it was the last straw for my back. I also have a curvature of the lumbar spine and a missing disc so I suppose you could say I'm behind the 8 ball :^O
I did go to remedial massage the other day and that helped a great deal, she also mentioned that one way to keep pain under control is to put a pinch of bi-carb in your drinking water.
It's alkaline and so reduces the acid build up that is caused by the pain... that works well too 🙂

Very cold moon... we have had snow on Mount Wellington and so it's been sort of icy down here, but not over the past few days, which have been a wonderful 15˚... back outside for me 🙂
