Thanks very much.
I should have had this treatment a year ago, but the Covid thing delayed all treatment until now.
It's still early days, as it can take between a few days and a week or two before it becomes fully effective, but I'm already feeling some benefit, having had a pain-free, full night's sleep, and waking up without any stiff muscles or aching joints. Standing and walking is much easier too, although not yet up to marathon standard !
I'm hoping that, within a day or two, I can get back to the modelling bench - my hands and fingers already have better articulation, but I don't want to risk stressing anything too soon.
 
Happiness is power and heat, along with a hot shower. Power has been out since Sunday night. House got down to 38F.... Probably could have opened the refrigerator for a little heat...:rolleyes: Still have potential for losing power due to rolling blackouts, but that should be gone by Friday sometime. The wife now wants some method for us to make our own power to keep the house going when the grid goes down like this. Hmm...might mean that I get another new welder!
 
Hope you get sorted soon - I lost my central heating from Saturday to Monday, and it wasn't pleasant !
It was warmer outside ( minus 4C ) than inside the house ( minus 5C ) !!!
 
My bird is 75 years old today. I did some polishing but it still needs some and I'd like to point out that I give polishing classes and charge very reasonable rates.

And it will be 85F here today.

Nice !
There used to be one of these at my aero club, back in the mid 1980's to early 1990's (don't know what happened to it after that ), and although it was nice, it was painted dark purple / blue colour, which I never thought really suited the shape of the aircraft. Another used to visit now nd then, and looked great in an overall "cream" finish, with gold cheat lines.
 
In the 70s, at Lakefront airport New Orleans, there was a very pretty, well cared for Ercoupe. One day my friend and I stopped to talk to the owner and discovered he was a student pilot with 121 hours. His explanation was that he was not interested in flying cross country or giving rides but just flying on perfect flying days. Sort of going fishing on a nice day, only for an aviation nut. Since my friend was a CFI, he asked if they could go up as he had never been in an Ercoupe. Afterward, I asked how was the man as a pilot and my friend said he was a competent VFR pilot.
 
Got new shelves fitted to my existing unit.
small issue is they sent wrong colour but not worth sending it back,
I bought a matching flat pack book case to use as extra shelves as i dont have space for another one and actually ended up costing less than just buying new shelves to fit !

My oldest son, my wife and me all scored negative on the Covid test. And with the first symptoms a seen 7 days ago an being symptoms free for more than 24 hours, my youngest son is allowed to come out of isolation. And the weather is still good, so we're going to enjoy some sun now.

very proud of my youngest son, taking his symptoms seriously, asking for the test himself, volunteering to go in isolation immediately and keeping that up for a week. Quite impressive for a 12 year old and he protected us from getting Covid.
