    Spirit, PPRs in my (second-hand!) experience do have a return date, or, at least, they are for a set period of time.

    Feeling a bit bleurgh.

    :(

    The weather probably doesn't help much either; it's not something you can rely on and make plans around, or even enjoy "sitting outside" in.

    Too bl00dy windy today by far. If you did try to take the small dog out for a walk it'd look like you were carrying a balloon on a string!

    A number of factors;
    my fall last week- taking a while to get movement back to pre fall levels, back of head still tender, more tired than usual, motivation for everything is missing, brain definitely working more slowly.


    It sounds like a really, really nasty fall. Don't be too hard on yourself. :)
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Was that when you were pulled over by the dog? :(

    Could I possibly advise you to see a doctor? :A
    Given it's several days afterwards and your head is still sore, it might be advisable to get it checked out, just in case the skull is bruised or worse. The more so, since you have those other symptoms, which might, just might, be a form of concussion.
    If you can't get an appointment with your GP, even as an 'emergency'-type thing, you could always just go to A&E.

    Or, ring 111 or whatever NHS Direct (or whatever it's called) is, and ask their advice.

    I am also frustreted by Generali's enforced absence. Time out in the sin bin should include a return date. Natural justice would require an appeal or review process. I not only resent the inability to have been supportive when his health was a worry, I miss his perspective and informative posts about financial markets reactions to political moves.

    You never know, he might pop in sometime next week? ;)

    I miss NP friends and the interaction with them, their news and stories, sharing their knowledge, experience and life wisdom. I know it is choice on the part of some, but I feel a bit like I have been dumped without knowing what I have done wrong. It seems counter to the genuine NP friends belief that has built up. I am also frustreted by Generali's enforced absence. Time out in the sin bin should include a return date. Natural justice would require an appeal or review process. I not only resent the inability to have been supportive when his health was a worry, I miss his perspective and informative posts about financial markets reactions to political moves. It draws like minded occassional posters and adds to the spread of experiences shared, such as chewie and hamish.

    I even miss all the scientific posts amongst NP scientists.

    And I have developed a serious coffee and cake habit, that is contrary to my diet and limited caffiene life

    We all have the blues at some point, don't be too hard on yourself.

    I've also been feeling off due to a bad situation with one person. Am very annoyed with myself that I'm allowing it to get to me.

    In this case, the numbers add up, and it probably wouldn't be happening if it was self-risked.

    Hmm.

    Do you get better loan rates if the project is guaranteed?

    It may be that the required financing is not available without the guarantees - or are you volunteering to be an angel investor.....

    Sadly the answer has to be no, for at least 42 reasons.

    Spirit I second what Pyxis said. You really don't sound very well. I agree though that sometimes cake and caffeine are must-haves, although not an adequate substitute for the NPs you, and we, are missing. Sending you very gentle (((HUGS)))
