A few days into it, a pattern started to emerge where between about 11.00 am and 7.00pm it would clear a good bit. Then killed like mad from the evening. Late August / early September I was working at MotoGP at Silverstone on the Ducati stand. At the end of the Sunday we were busy pushing lots of bikes and loading them onto the trucks. I thought to myself, "you're going to pay for this".......next morning the pain had gone and it stayed away for a good while. How weird was that? Obviously a disc or whatever had got tweaked back by the work and sorted the issue.

Good luck with the spring transplant and project Airsporter. I have here a Japanese made BSA scope (1970s). Think it's a 4x40 and, obviously non-AO. Let me ponder if I want to let it go or not. Very nice optics and would suit the Airsporter nicely.......
It sounds very similar to my back problem mate. When it goes its horrendous for a few days but once i can get moving, if i go for a few walks over the hills i can generally get the spasm to release!!!

Look at us, we've turned the bash thread into to a 'woe is me' agony aunt column!!!! Awesome!!!
