Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted April 9 Site Supporter Share Posted April 9 It was re-capped or some such a while ago. Made a difference, but not perfect and still some leachate. Bizarrely, Nob End is also a former chemical works site, and yet the remnants and contamination has left it a rare place and it's a SSSI now.

My dad went for hip replacement, and never came out. I’ve got to keep going back for blood tests every few years, I’ve had a cobalt hip implant..bad do with your old fella, never thought that not coming home after the op was ever a possibility.😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted April 10 Members Share Posted April 10 15 hours ago, gonzo said: Recently he's been pretty mobile, able to kind of limp on crutches. One leg is 70% healed but the other leg a different story. All that progress going back months now though as they discovered infection under one of the plates and infection has eaten into his bone and in where the breaks are, hence they haven't bonded yet. They are now talking the plate out, chiselling infected bone away then putting bone from his other leg in there, over the course of 6 weeks and 2 to 3 ops that is. His leg is then going in a cage thing, they are hoping he will be pretty mobile with that on as his foot sticks out the bottom. That's after 4 weeks of absolutely no weight bearing mind. Grim as fuck. All to clean a window Only just caught up with this mate. Best wishes, hope it all comes right in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bolty58 Posted April 10 Members Share Posted April 10 Perth White will confirm. Glorious time to be in Perth atm. Mid to high 20's every day and down around 13-15C at night. Mid march to mid May. Generally a great time to be here but we did have an oddball 37C one day last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally managed to report it to Bury Council. Dogshit system for such things. My mate is the head of landscaping for Bury Council, so this will be sent to him and his team. They have 4 lads covering the area and they have to do all the roadsides, school fields, trees and grave digging. So don’t expect it to be a blue light situation. some of his grave digging stories are genuinely amazing, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
