Metatarsalgia, wins, I have had it for about 6 months now and it is keeping me off the bike and not getting better.

I've got something similar, bursitis, mortons neuroma, all similar sensations ,if I may suggest, do you use spd's ? have you got shoe inserts ? (sorry if you've been through all this) but if you haven't give up the spd's and get some orthotic inserts specific for you from an orthodontist, expensive but worth it, probably won't disappear but will lighten up enough for you to ride, mine prevented me for a while from walking also, but after the inserts thing improved ,i'm about 15 yrs down the road with that one now, hope this helps...

Not entirely sure what tooth doctor can do for one's feet...

Thanks for that, I have tried most things and it is very slowly improving, my wife is also a foot care specialist. Who I should add agreed with you.

Oh... Meant to say, finished "Paradigm Shift", chapter 46 of my B5 fanfic the other day.

Sonovar is forced to become Shai Alyt Shakiri's pawn in order to hide his past - and his disgrace. Viyann encounters the Sisters of Valeria. In a session of the Council of Caste Elders, the warrior caste and the religious caste clash over alien refugees in Minbari space. Neroon gets a late night call that helps put his heart at ease - for now.

An excerpt for your delectation can be found here:http://www.thruxton.f9.co.uk/viyann.pdf

Note: the action takes place somewhere between the s4 episodes "Into the Fire" and "Epiphanies".

I’ve realised Brexit was a big mistake.

Came home from a jolly day out yesterday. Made cups of tea, got milk out from fridge to find it not very cold. Cranked thermostat up, with no reaction from fridge. Light doesn't work, so couldn't use that as an indication of mains etc. changed fuse, compressor worked for about 3 secs then shut down. Went to bed having researched new fridge/freezer with a heavy heart and thoughts of a light wallet. Took packed lunch out of fridge this morning, and fruit is at almost freezing point ( no quite but v.cold). Funny old game. Wonder if MRs LL will let me spend the expected fridge money on cycling "stuff"?

I was listening to stuff on the breakfast TV and heard them mention about charging for sun loungers at some foreign resorts. I was thinking why don't they introduce a rotisserie system whereby sun seekers can get an even share of the good and not so good spots. It might be a bit difficult finding your place again if you were to leave it for a while and find that it had moved on.

I woke up feeling hungry, which is highly unusual for me, and sent me to the bathroom scales. Perilously close to 70kg.

So I had 3 scrambled eggs with grated Parmesan cheese mixed in, 3 rashers of bacon, and a toasted panino. It seems to have done the trick. Mugs of tea are now essential.

What a difference a day makes. I just looked out of the kitchen window to see a Blackbird, 1 Great Tit, 1 BlueTit, and 1 Coal Tit at the bird table.

I misread that as toasted piano

I had a bowl of cornflakes and two glasses of orange juice.
