    Remember to be considerate to your pets this bonfire night... I'll be letting our dogs set off a couple of small rockets and maybe hold a sparkler ��

    Thank you all for your kind comments :A

    TS :A you are so very kind and I have sent you a PM.

    I have been using a wheat-filled microwave bag and have an electric heat pad, but these only give a bit of comfort rather than any pain relief. I'm on morphine and taking OxyNorm, but they knock me out, and the hallucinations are getting scary. Earlier, a crazy man drove a fork-lift truck through my bedroom wall, and I had to hold onto my bed as he shoved it across the bedroom to the other wall :eek:
