First, the advice.
I'm 67 and have suffered with intense hip pain for years. I never let it stop my pursuits, detecting, fishing etc. About 6 months ago I was hunting a permission and the old guy came out and said, "you gotta bad hip", it was that noticeable I guess. He had his hip joints replaced a few years back. I quote, "The only thing I regret about it is that I suffered sooo long and didn't address it years ago. Long story short, I took his advice. When the surgeon saw my Xray, he said he was suprised I could even walk. 7 weeks now since my replacement and he was right. One of the best things I ever do. I'm in the recovery phase where I'm constantly saying," hey, that used to kill me". Don't put it off any longer if you have the issue. Sure it's uncomfortable for the first two or three weeks, now, it's a joy.
Now for the help, there was a thread on here a while back. Last days that Hitler was alive. It was the bunker scene and some computer wizard had made a parody about metal detecting. Substituting english for Hitlers voice as he freaked out at his generals. About someone gave him a crappy detector. It was excellent. I have someone that would love to see it. Anyone know the link ?
Thanks guys.
