Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

It,

Not in your case.

Its fairly straight forward Hilary. One or two nights in hospital. Normally you can stand on it, with a frame or crutch, after about 2 - 3 hrs. 3 weeks and it should be a distant memory.

Live in hope!

You'll be playing for Burnley before you know it It :-)

That doesn't sound too bad, Iturama. It's the rehab that puts me off (not that I need a new knee, but I did put off an ACL reconstruction at the 11th hour a few years back because of the long rehab).

skiing?

Yes, cyners - about 15 years ago.

At the time, the operation wasn't as technologically advanced as it is now and the success rates weren't so great, so I opted to manage it through working on my quads and using a hinged knee brace for sports to do the job of the ligament. That's fine, but it gets a bit sweaty after a 10km run. I also found myself falling over unexpectedly a couple of times a year, which was a bit embarassing when it was at the Tesco wine counter. :o)

So, when the procedure got better a few years back, I decided to have the reconstruction, but then cancelled it after they said the rehab was 6 to 9 months.

cripes! .... just looked it up, and full recovery can be up to a year
surely running won't do it much good either, especially if on hard surface

think i'll stick to weight training twice a week (most weeks) and playing golf carrying a full set ...... i do a bit of fair weather cycling too; that would suit your knee fine too i suspect

cyn, there was a two-page spread on Dubai and the property market there
in the Home section of the latest Sunday Times. Might interest you.
Perhaps you've seen it already!

I`ll stick to glass lifting, hopefully avoiding such damage as described above.:-)

no one with any sense would ever buy a property in dubai as an investment

personally, i wouldn't want to go there on holiday either - i go 2/3 times a year on biz - and assuredly not to live

Might as well go back to ADVFN

But you rarely post on here now so what are you worrying about?

I do look in here sometimes. I also post on ADVFN.

Only brief viewings of ADVFN BB, but prefer Moneyam's.

Sometimes, however, I do get worried about the company I keep.

You'll miss us when we're gone Fred.
