wrote to council numerous times with clogged up gutters asking them to put up netting etc.. and all you get from them is “if you lived in a council house = we wud be able to help you , if you own your own house then sorry goodbye… 👿

any ratings on Gore bike wear (summer fingerless gloves-just that it says gel padding on heal of hand…. yeah i guess its best to try a few…thanx… 😉

ive had heel pain for quite a few months now..hurts when i walk but not when i riding which is good thing….. i massage the area a few times a day and also ‘kneed’ my thumb into the sore area and massarge. ive also done the heels pads thing inserts in shoes etc but still no joy…im wearing decent training shoes as well with great padding and shoe inserts so im doing everything right but apparently it can take up to 18 months ive read for the symptoms to disapear… theres no real treatment apart from massarging a few times a day…its one of those “time situations where you have to wait for it to go….ruddy pain it is 👿
ive heard you can strap your foot at nite with special tape….

….you will have fun on your return journey ,,,the link path has random placed boulders for you to jump off whilst flying back down the link path… 😉

as suggested above….if you are after low maintenance…a nice Rockery with small shrubs/bushy plants/heather/lavender….oh and Hydrangea always look nice in a garden.
