So I'm looking at March before I can get this monkey off my back.
The important thing is that you will get the monkey off your back. The bad news is that you'll get rid of the monkey just in time to do a whole month of home-based daily exercises to get fit before the spring comes in April.

And best wished to all my pals here.
Good news for me ( very ) and not so good news.
Good news: my surgeon called a few days before Xmas and gave us the good news that the cancer hadn't spread. Biopsy was clear. All tests & results looked good.
Not so good news: my oncologist has recommended a second round of chemo starting in 2+ weeks. It will be the same as before: 4 doses every 2 weeks. So I'm looking at March before I can get this monkey off my back.
Cheers from Aberdeen
Matt
And sincere thanks to all those who have contacted me. You'll never know how much your words and thoughts have meant to me.

I use the pimple gloves that are made for horse riders if it's cold and wet . I've also found I can slide a soft handle bar grip down over the twister. Once on I cut it to the correct length. The added diameter and rougher surface help to give me a better grip. Once it gets worn very smooth so my grip suffers, I can cut it off and replace it.
