I'm 45. Does that mean I'm out of danger?
'82. Getting better!
What happens when you hit 2009, will there be a space time continuum mix up?

ha ha nah you're probably fitter than I was at the same age - you keep them at bay by taking vigorous exercise everyday. I go to the gym regularly now and they have eased but drinking lots of water is meant to be the way to stop them.

A former girlfriend (in her twenties) had problems with stones and one day she presented me with one in a tiny glass vial. It looked like a spiny, glass sea urchin. I was then able to understand the pain that must come from passing one of them through your hoohoo.

I've never felt that pain but the renal colic associated with it is unbelievable pain. I spent two christmases ago in hospital for 5 days on a mixture of christmas pud and morphine! 
It's like a Holby City script....but better.
Now I am alone. Where is everyone?
I'm here! \o/
Yay!
I'm not.
Neither am I.... 
I love saying bye before I go. Bye.
Well my daughter took me for Roast Pork Belly and a couple of pints of cider. It is fathers' day after all.
Cider always gives a headache but I still succumb.
Oh and I'm 51 and have never had kidney stones.
