His foot work leaves a lot to be desired

Hubby put his back out in 2005 when we were in England. He'd had muscle spasms for a few years and after much nagging, I got him to a chiro in England. 3 visits in 3 days (first was the day of the bombings in London when we were supposed to be in town, so probably lucky there, eh? ) and some extremely strong painkillers from a very nice GP from Barbados the day of our flight back, and he's pretty much been right as rain ever since.

His quack of a doctor in the US always wanted him to go and have physical therapy. Sod.

Anyway, let me know if you want me to drop off the yoga DVDs.



Not working tomorrow then, eh?

However if nothing else comes up I might have to actually do some research on it rather than giving it my impulsive comments, so dont go using the discs as frisbies/coasters just yet

as I say, child's pose, one of the most basic yoga positions is great for stretching out the lower back and could well help with your referred pain.......the one in the ass.........did my syatic pain no end of good

though I suppose the naked female instructor did take my mind off it!

Ian, you talking to me about Pilates? If not, don't worry. Well versed in it. If so... do carry on, this could be amusing.

I'm back into karate, having just spent my first year training and doing kumite since I was 10 or so......my son enjoys it and graded a couple of weeks ago.
