Re: Sciatica!

Thanks All. Regarding physios just handing out exercises I thought that the one I saw would do just that, but after a discussion he said injections (and until then painkillers) was the way to go, and not even a word about exercises I could do so he must have presumed them to not be worthwile.

Re: Price of a pint of beer

As well as the price of beer, my biggest gripe is that you never get a pint. None of the uk glasses these days have a line on them for a pint, they are only a pint brimmed. I reckon you are only getting 90% of a pint at best maybe only 85% with some of the wider rimmed glasses. Yes, I do like a nic...

Hi GiaDJ,

Garage one replaced the sensor as they thought that was the fault.
Thansk for all the advice. I will go down the route of the independent engineer.
Having looked at Dekra this costs £125, I guess I have to swallow this or can I pass onto garage 1?

Thanks in advance.
