    I don’t want to face another four seasons with this pain and more importantly… decreased quality of everyday life, so….. I’ve decided to go private. I’ve got a meeting with the Doc (same specialist I saw on NHS last Thursday) next Monday 5th June at Cheltenham with an estimated
    August date for the operation. That’s only nine or ten weeks away
    Yes same specialists, going private just jumps the que really. Hope you get it sorted real soon Paul

    It does grate having to pay for it having paid NI for over 40 years and ‘jumping the queue’ in front of others who can ill-afford it but I’m only going to get worse over time if I wait and I’ve been in pain for eight months already. My other hip is deteriorating too so I’d best start saving up for that one too now .

    You should ask BUPA if they do a BOGOF deal on hips, Pauly.

    That would be handy Mick and if they did both at the same time I could get leg extensions

    It’s probably having short legs that’s worn your hips out —- you’ve been taking two paces where everyone else takes one.

    You don't want leg extensions, as you pay a fortune for trousers, if you can find any that fit

    I wasn't offering him mine, depends on how long he wanted to have them lengthened, I have a 36 inch inside leg, not easy getting trousers in that length, jeans ain't to bad.
