(but not giving up!) A year ago I had lofty plans to set sail around the UK and then conquer the world! A mixture of ill health and ill fortune has created setback after setback. Then all my savings were depleted by a mixture of living costs and ongoing refurbishment and repair costs, so not […]
For a while now, I have been experiencing excruciating pain in areas of the male anatomy that should not feel pain under any circumstances. It comes and goes, it isn’t a hernia, it isn’t an STD, it doesn’t seem to be cancer (thank God!), the quacks have poked and prodded a great deal and have […]
