    I am so pleased you have had such a good result. Bet you will enjoy the R&R.
    OH parents have a restaurant and houses in Mojacar probably about an hour and a half away from you. We take 2 hours from Alicante airport on those lovely fast,empty roads(mind you the M1 was great this weekend)!They all want to go for Christmas but I am not sure I want a Christmas in Spain.

    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.
