I did a raid Pyrenean with a guy in his 60's who'd had serious knee ops after a very active career teaching sports. You'd never have guessed he'd had any problems.

I'm hoping I'll be back at work in a week.......... maybe that's ambitious.
RE:- Dodgy knees - replacements only last so long so they like to wait as long as possible. You can only have 2 or 3 joint replacements. My BIL has (in the last 2 years) had a new hip and he's late 30's, so a big problem for him in later life - i.e. how many can he have.
My colleague's husband has had two hips done, and he's a keen hiker, and even still does climbing, and he's in his late 50's.

Fine for Sunday - arm feeling better after last night's reaction to the injection - no 'in Paris' excuses........
Arthritis - this op won't help but apparently the surgeon said it's not my main cause of pain (no-one can make their minds up).
