Oh, it's a hot summer night….
Well, it should be, but it’s 11ºC just after 11pm. Not much of a summer.
A dozen, a gross, and a score
Plus three times the square root of four
Divided by seven
Plus five times eleven
Is nine squared and not a bit more.
@variablepulserate The reflected pain from my lower back that shoots up beside my right shin from the ankle almost to the knee. Can't find any medication to help. Seeing a physiotherapist later in feb.
@sumudu That's part of the problem. Between 6 and 11% of the Caucasian population cannot metabolise codeine into a morphine variant. I belong to that subgroup. Doctors love to prescribe medication containing codeine but it has zero painkilling effect on me.
I'm not in a good place, mentally and physically. The former is constrained by the latter in the form of chronic pain in knee, back and leg leading to limited mobility and very poor sleep. This in turn leads to grumpiness and anger management difficulties.
Had a wonderful plan to get out the mountain bike, bung some air in the tyres and go for a short ride. But an outbreak of gout in one ankle curtailed that plan.
@variablepulserate I use and recommend Yorkshire Tea in the Proper Strong variation.

Going to try something radical (for me, at least) later today. Pump up the tyres of my mountain bike, find my helmet and go for a ride.
There are extensive cycle/walking tracks along a creek a few hundred metres away.
