Have pics of the OH's flat before she moved out here. Solitary PC on floor with cushion next to it.

Just think, 24 hours in aircraft seat and the pain will go away.
Why not treat yourself at a motel for couple of nights before leaving?

Trick is being able to lie flat on the floor and type while on your stomach! Easier on the knees

Hi Sandra, I keep popping in and out of forum as I have so much housework to help the OH with. Ha ha. There's nothing to clean apart from dishes as we gave most of them away we keep washing the same ones to use again. The patterns disappeared from them. Glasgow to Mackay via Singapore, Qantas, 2 adults and 3 kids 2937.50 quid (pound sign knackered). I thought this was no bad. The laptop is bought from Comet warehouse in Possil where my mates brother works, so got huge discount. Its a toshiba but thats all I can remember as they put it away for me. Meant to pick it up tomorrow but I'm struggling so I'll pull a rabbit out the hat. To the bloke and wintersgill, cheers for the advice as I know we're doing the right thing but right now I'VE HAD BETTER TIMES WITH THE FUC***G MUMPS

Pollyanna, cheers for advice but if I lie on belly my bad back kicks in and I'm jiggered for ages. When you put your 44 y-old body through the torture I've put mine through it tends to remind you that even though I think I'm still 20 and still act like it in most cases, I'm not. I'm old, grey and decrepit but only on the outside. On the inside I'm Brad Pitt and Olympic athlete
My OH looks at Mel Gibson and says he's better looking than me and older. I don't know what picture of Mel she's looking at. There;s no competition
