Today I am mainly practicing my old man walk. I can't quite shift the nagging back and although it comes and goes, there are times when I find myself creeping along most gingerly.

By and large it seems that once the muscles warm up, the pain reduces. Unfortunately sitting at a desk hacking away means that the muscles need warming up again every time I stand up, and standing at the keyboard is counter productive on the old lumbar and coccyx. I know; I tried for a while.

Time soon, to go out and get the lunchtime sarnies. I suspect I'd be best advised to allow a few minutes longer than usual for the trip so that I can move more with a slow dignity and less like Patsy and Eddie after a binge. Amusing to watch, less so to do.

That mercury idea is sounding more and more tempting if only it would work....

Can I suggest some Deep Heat, old boy? Warm and indolence in one easy package...
