BigTone Posted October 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 The knee treatment is worth investigating. They take some stem cells from your hip, mix with collagen and inject it through the knee-cap. A pal of mine had it done and he is like a spring lamb now. It has been pioneered by a guy here in Kent - a Professor Anan Shetty who operates from the Alexandria Hospital near Gillingham. Privately the cost is around £4,000 per knee but there is a long waiting list for NHS. The downside is that you cannot stand on the treated knee for about two months. Two years ago I was examined by Shetty who said I was not bad enough but I hope to see him again soon as my knees are deteriorating. If you google "Anan Shetty" you will find more info. Good luck.Cheers, I shall have a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTone Posted November 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Problem solved. After punching all the neighbours and eyeing up their livestock I have decided to get another dog so it can eat their cats and piss on their gardens.

Nearest city is Angouleme. Not far from Mansle then? Spent 10 days there on holiday in a rented house a few years back. Very rustic and enjoyable. It was during Coppell's rein. Yes that 5 minutes. Anyway all the best fellow OTIB user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTone Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Thanks all. Will try and get on every now and then but just really not the Mae West at the moment. Shit result today. Mansle (pronounced Mahle) is about 10 mins away. Nice little restaurant called Le Marmite is great for lunch. Sorry Dolls no details but just love sick.

I can't remember the last time I bought any veg or eggs when I am here because my farmer neighbours keep hanging bags of them on my gate. I can honestly say that did not happen in Costa Coffee in St Pancras !! You may risk to stumble on the quaint French custom of sending the boys round to recover the money owed for groceries , very shortly . Hope you're feeling better .

PHILINFRANCE Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 @BigTone Where are you? Dolly wants some cheese, and I would appreciate a joke. Seriously, you mentioned you were having to go to hospital and would be absent for a while, but we have heard nothing since. I am sure just a brief 'Hi, all is well', would be appreciated by many on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
