    Hello from me too! It's lovely to have another bloke on board and I hope you stick around. I am not in your neck of the woods (and I only share the OA part of your trouble) but this is a great place for reliable information, support and encouragement. I am waiting for new knees (just two more years to go :roll: ) but I know that many on here have had replacements and revisions. It's lovely to meet you and I hope you pop back in soon. I wish you well. DD

    PS I haven't 'heard' TTFN for years. That cheered me up no end!
