I went to see Dave Grohl's one man show in London last September. It was in the Savoy Theatre. Small theatre, small seats. I spent the couple of hours there hunched over because I couldn't quite fit.

 

Since then my back has been absolutely fucked. I've got issues at the very bottom of my spine that my chiropractor can't seem to solve. I'm necking co-codomol on a regular basis now.

 

All this because I was leaning forward in a seat

Going full, "Yer Da," on holiday by wearing a T-shirt in the sea the last few days. It's so hot and the sun very intense so I'm not risking sunburn on my shoulders and back. MrsD and KidD are blessed with Mediterranean skin which tans rather than blisters like mine 

I wear kids factor 50, I'd sooner be super pale than suffer even one night of sunburn. Fuck that.

I went to the unmentionable on Saturday and now I can barely walk. My calves and shoulders are fucking screaming every time I move. I didn’t even walk very far, relatively speaking. 
 

The multiple sclerosis might have something to do with it but I’m definitely feeling like an old man. 

 

Do I need to get cracking on names I want added to the list in case you start degenerating quickly?
