Have you done your back in?
Yep - pelvis and L5 have decided that they wanted a closer relationship and they are not showing any signs of giving each other up.
The chiro couldnāt shift it on account of all the muscles being complicit in this coupling
āTis a nightmare
Cross me palm with silver luvā¦I do a nice line in Faith Healing. Strip to your face mask luvā¦Iāll give you a right pummelling. 
Not pleasant, i donāt envy you that. I have suffered from sciatica occasionally over the years, it really is excruciating and leaves me absolutely helpless when it flares up. I can go years without any sign of it, then it just reoccurs out of the blue for no apparent reason. The last time was a couple of years ago, a particularly bad bout, i couldnāt put my socks on for ten days.

Ah Sciatica.
Bane of my 20ās after wrecking ligaments in my back playing cricket.
Strangely solved byaChinese lady in Shenzen whodid one of those movie neck break moves on my neck complete with the snap sound while on a DTI outbound Trade Mission.
Most rewarding and happy ending ever, not a single twinge since.
Every other part of my body is fucked, but not my sciatic nerve

Do you eat meat?
A wood pigeon fell down my chimney and couldnāt get out again. As the house has a coal-effect gas fire thing (that weāve never used, and which I dislike) I had to remove that, leaving a large hole. The pigeon itself wasnāt on the floor, but perched on a sloping shelf a couple of feet up the chimney.
So I had to try to reach up to get said pigeon. Needless to say, it wasnāt too keen on this activity, and flapped around like hell whenever I tried to grab it. As I didnāt want to damage it, this proved to be problematic. fortunately, at my third or fourth attempt to get hold of it, its mad flapping resulted in it falling from its perch to the floor. At which point I was able to grab it safely, holding its wings against its sides, then get it out through the patio doors. I put it on top of the fence and off it flew.
Then I had to reassemble and refix the wanky gas fire thing (the gas supply to it is switched off and will stay that way), and there was a load of cleaning up to do.
How the fuck does a pigeon fall down a chimney anyway? Stupid fucking creatures.

I had that back in the '80sā¦I phoned the gas emergency line and they asked if it was a threat to life? I said yes it is for the pigeon.
They sent a man round about 30 minutes laterā¦no charge.
