    I miss being able to work properly a lot. There are days I even miss being stuck in a traffic jam on the m25 at 8am and running late for the client. I am not joking.

The sciatica makes it difficult to sit and the plantar facilitis makes it difficult to stand! I'm like a fecking jack-in-the-box!

    No rush but do let see the logo if you get round to it please.
    Thats not good and cocodamol is good, especially 30/500 but without Tramadol and a few other things I would be totally screwed. Next stop for me is
    Morphine

    Arthritis is now in hips and everywhere south of there Dial in heart failure and a few other things and it's a delightful mix!

    If I couldn't take NSAID's I would be *****d.

    There is no logo for the TradeHouse replacement yet. On further thought, it probably won't be called The Tradehouse if it does go ahead because that brand was retired 2 years ago. I'm not the biggest fan of bringing brands "back from the dead" as I don't think it works very well as either a tactic or strategy. The website is ok so far but any security or data protection guy on here would probably have serious concerns as it stands for example. I think it's a case of "lets see what happens". It's certainly a nice start and it helped with the pain.

Nothing official yet but the TradeHouse might make a reappearance next year based on last nights work. I will hapilly put that logo on the side. Please note there is an awful lot of work left to do before this can happen!

    Although it's a neat way of getting through those low traffic neighbourhoods. I might get one myself, soon it will be the only way of moving around London, while also staying dry...
    It doesn't rain that much in London.

    The problem is the rain happens in one period.
