    bit uncomfortable beanie for some of them going in. The one in my right hand made my hand 'jerk' like a deep electric shock when it went in and was like a painful injection with the one in my right shoulder and that hurt coming out again. The others (hand/back/knees/feet) were all fine.

    She wants to do 1 more session of acupuncture on Thursday and then do some sessions of manipulation.

    Don't know if it doing anything or not to be honest but willing to try anything really.

    _wave__by_elicoronel16.gif To everyone, especially Bunster

    Sal, I agree with everyone else netbooks are pants :rotfl: When they came out I became a sheep and got one. They are ok if you need to pop online or want to be wireless in my case however there are many cons... 1) Too small screen/keyboard 2) Has a small memory 3) No cd drive so no dvd's on the move 4) Doesn't hold its charge well 5) Doesn't hold its value (although what pc/lappy does). If I know now I would never have got it... However I do still love it and watching iplayer in bed is fabby :D

    If you can I would urge you to save/buy a full size lappy it will repay you. If I now only had my netbook I would be out buying a new one/saving really fast as more than 2 hours typing on that thing and my eyes hurt and my brain aches :rotfl:

    Pap, could you get a cheap keyboard to plug into it to make it easier to type?
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
