    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I've watched so many of the A & E etc programs on TV that I know how nervous and even hysterical so many get about having a jab, even to the point of refusal. The notion of any skin piercing is enough to trigger those responses. The idea that many would self administer is a non starter, and...

    Exactly, a well known paper routine every 4 years for lifetimes, it's called practice makes perfect. Covid vaccination is an entirely different thing involving a national distribution of vaccines, supplied for phased age bands, combined with the provision of special ultra low temperature...

    Nothing fancy at all, just plenty to drink and lots of exercise for 25 years, then helped over the remaining ten years by the Tamsulosin capsules which dilate and relax the urethra. Apart from vitamin D I dont use any supplements but do have a healthy wide ranging diet which includes meat in...

    Best wishes for your forthcoming operation and for an optimal outcome, sorry I can't help with saddle advice.
