Where is our Pirate? The master of Plastic

Aches, pains it all around us..... Scans have showed I do have the dreaded
Arthur-itis in my aching back. Explains why I have a Silly Walk and cannot stand for long.
A couple of good old fashioned falls have proved not so good for my shoulders.

Hands are at 81.5 years are shaking a bit, eyes get very tired and this does no good for my
more than challenging builds.

Cheers,
the Plastic Pirate!!!!!!

I'm only 62, but Uncle Arthur has been resident in my big toes & thumbs for 15 years or so - and scans show starting to mess with lower back.

Which has other problems - a vertebra that likes to shift position as I move, bruising the spinal cord... and a bulging disk which throttles (hands on neck type) said spinal cord - fusion surgery to fix both is scheduled for 5 March this year (FINALLY - they diagnosed "surgery required" 7 months ago!)

Fortunately my eyes are good (again, cataract surgery last September in both eyes), so I can finally see clearly again (my shooting eye was the worst, I've several old lever-action rifles/carbines & revolvers I bought in the last 3 years I have yet to shoot... the urge is strong). ;)
 
Nice one mods.
