        Tried leading with the left - just doesn't feel right though. I do attend a gym and do low impact CV work (bike, cross trainer, etc.) although I haven't been since the arrival of No.4. My diet has also slipped a bit, I think given the recent upheaval I've been skipping breakfast and then snacking at work. I'm also working a lot in the evenings, and I tend to snack a lot then.

        My plan is to shift my current workload, and then get back to the gym and a proper healthy routine. But I still need to get my knee checked out - something definitely isn't right in there.
        Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

          Chinese for dinner

          After the disappointment caused by the efforts of the new managament at the once-excellent place, I'm trying the one a bit further up the road. It also has a smiley face from the Council's food hygiene people; all that remains is to see if the food is any good

          Now starting to guzzle; update later...

            "Tried leading with the left - just doesn't feel right though." - boom boom! I have to lead with left at moment - good to increase muscles in left leg.

            wii balance games might help.

            try slimming world.

            my knee was bunched up cartilidge - if you twist it it never gets better. but can be many other things. I paid £600 for x-ray then £500 gor mri - but only opening up explains it fully. I was told initialially I would need full reconstruction surgery - but at the end that the op I just had should correct just about everything.

            always difficult with young children - always something to do!

            good luck and keep us informed!

                  Mmmmm

                  Chicken & sweetcorn soup: excellent! Very thick consistency, good quantity of little chunks of chicken, seasoning nicely balanced

                  Crispy duck: very crispy indeed, good quality pancakes, plum sauce of a very thick consistency with a full, rich flavour

                  Now having a bit of a rest before tackling the beef chow mein. Initial appraisal indicates that they use fine noodles rather than medium, but that isn't necessarily an issue...

                    Tried a few of those - not sure that they do anything for this particular problem though. I don't seem to have any trouble with most knee movements, and I can play sports like badminton (with all its twisting) without any problem. Well, only the problem that I lack any real skill.

                    What I like about Wii Fit is that it allows you to monitor the progress of a fitness regime, and allows you to set goals. Unfortunately our Wii is still away being repaired.

                    Amen to that.

                      Beef chow mein: rich but well-balanced flavour, good tender beef, appropriate degree of crunchiness to beansprouts and onions

                      All in all, I'd say the slightly-further-away place gets my seal of approval. The old place was very slightly better, predominantly by dint of using medium thickness noodles and one or two other small touches in the chow mein - but there's really very little to choose between them
