    Tough luck there Rob. Hope you're fit soon!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Bad news Rob. I was in a similar situation years ago with a busted knee. Laid up and no money coming in. Not an easy time.

    Anyway look forward to hearing about what you've been up to.

    Hello Walpurgis & Macca,

    Thanks for your concern.

    I’m just about off my addiction to Ibuprofen and moving around reasonably normally again and still asking the question “why me?”. It’s not as if I’ve just attempted to climb the north face of the Eiger where these dangers are regarded as occupational hazards.

    All I did was go for a jog, do a spot of gardening and then ended up hospitalised for my troubles.

    Oh hell I’m grumbling again, I'll move on!
