  1. Ok, point taken, I hope he meets the expectations that have been set for him.
  2. Completely disagree with that i'm afraid Mark, Tuillagi and Burrell/Eastmond/Twelvetrees. Burgess is good but over hyped by all and sundry so far, it's too early for him to play 1st class international RU, see here:- http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/31045244
  3. I hope your're right George, I was in Cardiff 2 years ago and England were embarassing. Got tickets for next week but I'm a tad apprehensive to be honest.
  4. I'm surprised it lasted until today to be quite honest Nice pix
  5. Maybe time to consider an in car camera?

  7. Update:- All those that have paid and live in the UK have had their calendars posted today.
  8. Thank you Graham It wasn't just me though Martinmac and Doogyrev did the sorting out I just do as I'm told
  9. Got a head up from Adrianí ½í±. To answer all your questions would require confirming that you actually have a hernia indeed in the first instance. Most times the diagnosis is obvious on clinical examination. Sometimes you may need an ultrasound or radiologic modalities. Treatment is often elective(planned) but if you develope a complication like strangulation then you will require emergency surgery. Typically for an inguinal hernia the gold standard repair is the Lichtenstein technique (mesh overlay repair) and it's usually a daycase procedure. Endoscopic (keyhole) repair is also possible but usually employed for a simple inguinal hernia. So if all you have is a lump in the groin which comes up when you strain, stand etc and that reduces easily when you apply gently pressure to it, lie down or wear even a corset. Typically you may experience a heaviness, dragging sensation or mild discomfort when it's popped out but this goes away when back in. If the lump becomes very painful, red/hot, unable to reduce, or you start to vomit or experience a distending tummy then these may suggest a serious complication requiring emergency surgery. You can reduce the chance of the hernia symptoms worsening or complicating by avoiding strainous activities, avoid constipation, treating persistent cough etc. I'm quite happy for you to contact me by pm or phone so we can discuss things of a more personal nature and I can try to advice appropriately. That's what I said Bennet
  10. I had this op a couple of years ago, it's all in the luck of the draw as to how painful/serious it is, it can cause bowel stangulation or blockages which is very serious. Others can go on for years with no pain/problems. As others have said, if you haven't done so alreafy go and see the quack and see what he advises. I had key hole surgery, up and about in a couple of days, one night in hospital. Good luck with it all mate
  11. I tried that last year, they gave me 2 sacks and the stamps and I took them home
  12. The Smurf workers have stuffed calendars into envelopes, I hope to get these in the post tomorrow (Gemma at the PO will NOT be pleased!!!)
