Bad news and more bad news

[laidback]

Haven't been around much so at least haven't upset too many ppl lately but just wanted to let you know what's happening.

Went for a afternoon ride a while ago and when I got back I was as sore as. The last 2-3 weeks have been hell as I have also stepped into a hole.

Back and hip have been crook(er) since and it now seems like my riding days are about over and surgeon says aftermarket hip now needs replacing and RH also needs doing and arthritis in lower back is getting worse. Even riding the Bronc is no longer fun.

No way am I going to have this op again after the trouble this one has given me so am going to have a rest for a while and see if I can get the pain under control. I know how to di it but this results in massive hangovers and then I get (more) grouchy.

Will be popping in from time to time to keep up with gossip.
