Ooh! Look at Google - click the arrow.

My Bun came to visit at the weekend. Boy declined, apparently on the grounds that he doesn't like long car journeys. Hah. But Bun brought excellent birthday presents with her - a lovely flower basket plus a basket of edibles (cheese, macaroons) and interesting teas. I shall perhaps bring the teas to Camp for you to try. How nice it is to have produced a Grown-Up Person!

I had a real treat in the middle of the night (or, at half past four this morning) — after too long being unable to go to sleep I thought I would get up and read, but when I tried to turn over my back *screamed* at me, and I had to wake Beast up to beg for ibuprofen. Most unpleasant. It's all right now, at least, there is a niggling pain but I can move around perfectly well. And my right leg is resonating with the back pain.

I do not wish to participate in this 'getting old' lark. I wish to remain a fortysomething. Why is this not happening?

Happy belated birthday!

That's an excellent gift. But ouch at your back.

[turlough]

Ouch! I hope it was a one-time occurrence and that your back will behave itself in the future.

Thank you! Most irritatingly, I went to the doctor a few days ago, at which point my back had stopped its three-week-long niggling. But she took a look, and it does seem that the pain is muscular rather than Something Nasty Going On.

I seem to have back muscle spasms every so often. Not usually quite so dramatic!

ouch - sudden attack pain is no fun at all!

[pensnest]

It was very tiresome!
