Yes, Iām surprised I have got away without having my knee joint....on the crash leg .... replaced yet ......old age sucks
it isn't old age related though, it's trauma ..I could accept the old age bit, but the fact that a kamikaze nurse decided to take me out annoys me a tad 
I can't even do a pirouette now, saying that I was about seven when I last did one

ok rant...
If they stopped fecking mucking about on Masterchef and get all the semi-finalists to cook over two days and then vote on the last two to go. No, we have to have split groups and days wasted in poncy restaurants and then good chefs go and others get through, saying that Matt took too many risks but overall he's been fantastic

I know Baz, none of it was our fault, I could accept the wear and tear bit, but when it was no fault of ours and continue to suffer...and a piddling insurance claim for 18 months on crutches and 12 and 1/2 year of pain since

Good rant, but it pales in to insignificance with my rant in King Street when I came out of work tonight

Mine was 7 grand but 14 years ago and that included other injuries, if I had broken it the starting claim would have been 15 grand. I wish I had, it would have been 6 weeks on crutches instead of 18 months and 9 months of physio and acupuncture and that was a ucking painful waste of time

exactly, glasses or none it would have made not a jot of difference. Nowadays claimanything.com would have sorted you out Sometimes I hate these firms for claiming for petty things, but if you can't afford a lawyer and have good cause everyone should use them The garage company put me in touch with a firm, they charged me minimal and lump sum of the charges was paid by her insurance that also happened to be mine
