Best wishes for a speedy recovery from me also sir. Having battled with back issues when I was a younger man (due to a young man's stupidity and stubbornness), I am more than aware of just how debilitating it can be when something like this strikes. Give it time and let it heal thoroughly so you don't get a repeat "performance". vossiewulf and Keith Black 2 Mark On the table: Endeavour 1934 - J Class Racing Yacht - 1:80 Next up: Lynx, Baltimore Clipper Schooner - MANTUA - 1:62 Awaiting shipyard clearance: HMS Endurance - OcCre - 1:70 Wishlist: 1939 Chris Craft Runabout - Garrett Wade - 1:8 Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen
vossiewulf Posted February 10 Author #693 Posted February 10 FYI the orthopedics people say I managed to fracture the last thoracic vertebrae, which explains the pain. They've put me in a back brace for four weeks, not sure how much I am going to get done as the pain is still pretty bad when I bend over or twist. On the good side, with someone else doing the heavy lifting I have my new lathe repaired and operational so it's ready to go when I am.

Keith Black Posted February 10 #694 Posted February 10 What a drag, Vossie. At least you know the reason for the pain and you're getting treatment. I can recommend some binge worthy TV shows/series if needed.

I too wish you a speedy recovery. One TV series that we did enjoy was the Day of the Jackal (we watched it on Peacock). If you haven't seen it and can get Peacock I can highly recommend it.
