Hi, @Dibbles1 .Was a new tyre really necessary.Cost us £135 in Salisbury the other day for a new tyre, after we picked up a screw in the tread on the way to town... Should have been £200 but the guy took pity on us along with the '0' vat.
Still costly after xmas though.
So you'll save the money for the lesson with the cop![]()
@Dibbles1 , I thought it would be worse than just the dam nail. Well done RACNah, thanks though @izzzi
It had broken down the inside of the side wall by the time we managed to stop safely somewhere. Sort of cracked inside all the way round, leaving a line all round on the outer tyre wall?
The screw had caused the puncture but, I think because I have a heavy 135kg wheelchair right above it in back, next to 40kg Malamute in his cageit had gone down rather quickly. So had broken down the inside of the side wall.
Not bad enough that it was dangerous to drive to tyre centre. Which was where the RAC man took us after gingerly pumping it back up again. But too far gone to repair unfortunately.
I know what you mean though, we had a couple repairs a few years ago on our old car, where we caught it in time.
The hub was very nervous and cautious of the RAC man pumping too much air in to a normal 35psi pressure, worried it might go, with the chap's face so close. Kept telling him not to risk his safety on our account. Love that man!![]()
He was fab. So were the chaps in the tyre centre. x![]()
Sorry... My posting.. Allowed to stray-lolHas anyone watched the second part ?
We seem to have gone off topic.![]()
90% of The recipes on the BBC site for the "constant cravers" are carb-free!!! I shall be making most of them!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/collections/intermittent_dieting_recipes
They are called intermittent dieting recipes, and thre is a warning to only eat them a couple of times a week
Still, it is a step in the right direction.
Am I right to assume that none of the group members were diabetic. ( I know never assume )
Hi gracol nice to see your post , how are you ? Whats your journey been ?Some fat carbohydrates and plenty of calcium !!!
That was one of the first things that entered my head. I'm assuming not because hopefully they would have had a much better handle on eating and what they were eating. I've stopped thinking about how anyone can eat 14 - 19 bowls of sushi at 150 calories a bowl, again, first thing I thought, how many calories in those bowls. That is a pretty serious eating problem.Am I right to assume that none of the group members were diabetic. ( I know never assume )

I didn't really think that anyone who has ever considered what they were eating could even believe that a slice of that cake was only 150 calories (in my dreams LOL).
There were definitely some interesting bits, but I felt it was all a bit contrived, well of course it was, there was a selection process. If they had started with a random bunch of overweight people, they would definitely of had some diabetics and like me who answered the online questionnaire, didn't fit into one of their three categories.
Going well and thanks for asking. Can now bend knee to 110 degrees, can almost do a complete revolution on the static bike at the gym. I have to continue strengthening the quads which I now realise is a group of 4 muscles (I think quad should have been a give away LOL). The surgeon is happy to do the other one but I'm thinking of delaying by 6 months so that my operated leg is stronger than it ever was and I can walk up stairs leading with the operated leg which is still pretty uncomfortable. It could give me time to improve the right leg more, now I know a bit more about what goes on and with advice from surgeon and physio.(How's the knee coming along @graj0?).
