  1. Posted by Eagle 899 on 08/10/2020 15:51:18: As posted in June last year, no symptoms whatsoever but prompted by this thread I requested a PSA test which happily returned ‘0.8 ug/L endorsed Normal - No Action’. In the last month or so I have developed the associated night time pee problems and quite severe constipation, my GP has arranged another PSA test for next Monday, then will arrange a DRE etc., He thinks the constipation might be associated with the suspected prostate issue. I’m nearly 73 and one of six brothers. None of the others have had any similar problems. I’ll come back with progress……………. Shep PS Keith, suggest you take the coin back out of your pocket, just in case! Good luck Shep, hope its a positive outcome shippers.

  3. Might be worth having a ride over to see Charlie Cox at Kings Lynn models gary he might be able to help or know someone with a lathe. Personally mate (Sir) I would hang fire and see how the final outcome is with the CoG and if nose weight is req'd get nut made out of appropriate material, some guys on LMA offer these services. ill send you pm tomorrow.
  4. If budget allows Gary a radial all day long, if only for the sound. As for nose weight that may be required there is always that lump of a spinner nicely turned and balanced. I was contemplated a split wing on mine if possible, what are your thoughts about that? Edited By fly-navy on 18/05/2020 23:08:12
  5. Been up and down ladders like a fiddlers elbow for two weeks now Steve, getting to old for that lark. Rewired the lights last week two hours on my knees in loft, talk about pain, just getting over it. Sorry Gary, I blame Dibley, back on topic now. What are you putting up front? Electric and I will have word with draftie and get you grounded.
  6. Way to go Gary, good to see you have extracted your digit. All the more motivation to think about mine. Decorating the spare bedroom so put my bits in the loft,reason I mention this is I'm a bit perplexed about the "Model World" bottom right, I would swear it isn't on mine,so now I need to go and have a look to put my mind at rest. Build looks grand lad, idle hands and all that
  7. You don't have to tell me, I have stood close to you often enough.
  8. Idle hands and all that , Stevo me old warrior hows life matey, hope you and the girls are all safe buddy
  9. Posted by Andy Joyce on 11/04/2020 15:40:39: Have my appointment with the consultant in just over a weeks time so fingers crossed. Out of interest are you still on the hormone injections as my doctors cancelled my monthly appointments due to the virus. Andy had phone call on Friday to say injection would be going ahead tomorrow morning, 0900, first patient in the surgery so everywhere will be cleaned down and steralised, got to go in side door at appointed time not the waiting room, got my surgical gloves ready and masks which I picked up at shows last year. Way to go Martian. John Edited By fly-navy on 27/04/2020 23:03:44
  10. Thanks guys, bottle of Pusser's has been opened wings. Andy my injections are 3 monthly ones next one is due on 23 april so can expect call about what is happening. Strange thing about all this is my bald plate is covered with hair again and no one knows why. Madam runs her fingers over it with that look in her eye.Gulp,
  11. Should have had appointment with consultant Monday to let me know how the treatment had gone. Had phone call on morning to say it was cancelled due to the virus, she would phone me at the allotted time. Said everything was all good and fine and the psa levels were undetectable, did not want to see me again (I have this effect on people ) and would refer me back to the specialist nurse later in the year to monitor me. Boy that's a load off. Stay safe guys. John (Gardens spruced up, cuttings done now to sneak into cave) Edited By fly-navy on 11/04/2020 01:16:32
  12. Posted by Wilco Wingco on 26/03/2020 22:32:47: Just received a new exhaust total cost inc postage from Japan. £20.36. + VAT £4.12 + post office handling charge £8,00 ????? Not sure why the Post Office should get the £8.00 as it only cost £6.50 postage from Japan Air Mail Pleased your sorted Mike. Very good to deal with aren't they!
  13. Thursday 5th March ladies, "Warbird workshop" 2100 on the Yesterday channel.
  14. Posted by Nigel R on 21/02/2020 12:11:31: "please don't think I'm angling g for someone on here to offer, just need heads up best place to get them printed" Various ebay sellers offer a customised sticker type service. I paid £2.30 for ten. Search for "stick on waterproof school kids identity printed name labels stickers" I figured it was cheaper than buying a printer. heers Nigel,
  15. Received my operator I D couple of days ago. Can anyone tell me please where I could get them printed on some vynal self adhesive sheet, please don't think I'm angling g for someone on here to offer, just need heads up best place to get them printed. Cheers. John
  16. I hope that you computer techies forgive me, what started off as information for helping out a windows 7 problem seems to have ended up as a quantum physic's session to me, and perhaps a couple of others. I am now at a loss what to do, my W7 is performing as before, does what I ask, lets me fiddle about with my Phoenix, and do my emails. My concern was about the security after windows said it will not be supported so I wonder if my option was to upgrade this to 10, Jon kindly pointed out it is a bit dated and would recommend a linked new laptop which was the option I was going for, then Linux reared up, I fear far too technical for me, then Kaspersky came into play, shall I put this on this laptop, decisions, decisions, decisions. I shall probably go for the new one, then possibly try the upgrade on this one. Do I have to copy everything I have on here or will it remain on here during and after the upgrade. Keep it simple please chaps, I know you are all being helpful but my eyes spin at some of the technical posts, probably born 40 years too early. Edited By fly-navy on 28/01/2020 23:48:35
  17. Tomorrow will be the 20th day since my last radiotherapy session. Treatment itself was a breeze, couple of hiccups during treatment which dragged the day out, one was dehydrated, tother was full bowel, other than that it was a walk in the park. It took a lot for me to drink 2litres of water a day and resulting toiletries which I have never had to do so often before, but small price to pay for hopefully good outcome.After effects of treatment has not been evident, took a few days for bowels to settle but feel absolutely great and positive. My personel downside is I suffer (Riddled) with rheumatoid arthritis which has been well under control with methatextrate, unfortunately this is a cancer drug they found beneficial to RA sufferers, but you have to stop it while you have RT treatment and as the radiation is still in your body after you finish I have had to wait This has caused my RA to flare up again and caused me considerable pain and I have now resumed my drug taking. I have been told my appointment to see oncologist is March and to have psa test a week before that, waiting for app.Apart from RA I feel grand, staff at Royal Wolv were brilliant, next three month hormone injection is Feb and tomorrow is another day, Kidderminster hospital for injection into my eyeball Ain't getting old wonderful. Keep positive guys, enjoy life.
  18. Pleased it went well for you David. See it still has my name on the fuselage.
  19. Righto guys all getting bit too technical for me now, sorry. Decided I will go and have a look at Curry's weekend and after five minutes they will realise I'm a pc duffer. If you could give me some idea what would be best for me long term, don't intend buying another one after this, ie, what size RAM, GB space, drives, ssd? memory etc. Willing to go to 3/400 squids. Thanks again for your help, this doesn't mean I'm getting one from Curry's just getting their speil. John
  20. Thank you for that Jon, I shall probably get the one you linked. Ahh, grandkids, we have a 4 year old great granddaughter, and her fingers fly across the keyboard, "Grumpy this is what you have to do" LOL talk about embarrassed.
  21. The reason I joined the thread is, (a) I'm an old git (b) Puters frighten the **** out of me (c) I want some security for the minimal purchases I do on line (d) I do not do any work as such on pc, transfer files etc just want something for browsing, going on different forums, using my flight sim, booking holidays so really do not need an all singing / dancing laptop. if Jon says that one will be ok seems good enough for me. You can guarantee when my son visits wekend it will be " Why don't you get a decent refurbished win 10 one for your needs dad!" Decisions, decisions, decisions. Now whats these Apple Mac's
  22. Thanks John, seems pretty reasonable price also.
  23. Thanks for replies gents. Is there a minimum equipment requirement? Mine has 3.8 rating AMD E 450 ADU HD graphics 1.65 GHz 4.0 GB Ram 64 Bit
  24. Do I really need to upgrade mine gents? I have a Toshiba laptop running Windows 7, with Microsoft Essentials installed. I have had the message it will not be supported after the end of the month. I do not use internet banking as such, but in truth I do book holidays and buy some items on line using PayPal which is paid for on my CC which is cleared every month. All your helpful guides I'm afraid just goes over my head so if needs must it will be a new / reconditioned laptop with 10 already installed or should I just carry on. Tis only used for forums and the web really. TIA John
  25. Yes still kicking on. I have been put on a course of IMRT, 20 sessions, which gives a higher dose over a shorter period. They say this is more beneficial to the lower end and non aggressive cancer as it protects the good surrounding tissue and cells in the prostrate area. I have had 12 sessions so far and finish on 4th Jan. The low fibre diet is a pain, and all the water you have to drink plus the constipation powders I have to take each night. Sometimes I am lucky and don't have to get up in the night, other times once or maybe twice. It's a month of inconvenience out of my life I'm sure I can cope with that,staff at Deansely Centre New Cross are bloody brilliant. Having Xmas dinner in New Year with me sprouts cabbage and cauli, heaven. Merry Crimbo guys,say safe and healthy. John
