Afternoon :-))

12D Widely cultivated plant; the leaves can be cooked and eaten as a vegetable? B**T Surely this must be BEET although I have never eaten the leaves only the bulb!

[Lie-in King]

'Beet' it is!

How the devil are you - well, I hope? :-)

[paross]

Thanks babe. I feel as if I have SUDDENLY got old - having a lot of pain in my joints - hurts to get out of bed in the morning as nothing wants to bend! Feet, ankles, knees, fingers etc. Going to GP on Tuesday to get results of blood tests. It seems as if I cannot get an injection for my coccyx down here unless I go private (200). Can't believe it, my old GP did it himself but they are scared shitless down here of being sued if something goes wrong!! Hope you are fitter than me. Another thing I wasn't expecting in Cornwall was bloody rain nearly every day - it's doing it now! X

Get well soon Paross !
Maybe it's Rust in the Joints after all the Rain down in Cornwall.
Have they got good Vets down there ?? lol

[paross]

As for Vets, I think a dose of ketamine? might do me good! LOL

[Lie-in King]

Sorry, missed your reply...

See - that's what living in a cave'll get you! Seriously, I hope you manage to get sorted soon. :-))

Thanks, I'm not too bad, if tired. Still getting back to normal after upheaval of renovations to flat...

[redman41]

Take care, hope all goes well for you regarding the Blood Tests

[paross]

What have you had done to your flat then?

[Lie-in King]

New kitchen & bathroom - trouble is, there's more work needs doing now than before they started! :-(

[paross]

Is the flat yours and have YOU got to decorate etc?

[Lie-in King]

Council place & I've to do what they won't pay for - fair enough, really
