Yes we're all individuals.
I'm not!

Mine started when I was 35, I'm only 2 years on and I hope it stops when I am 40. My brother's KC started when he was a teenager and seems to have stabilised now that he is 36.

This probably doesn't help much...

Cannot download this at all. I just get linked to a page where I have to buy some RAR software to use it.

Chris, Sorry to hear you are feeling rough :mrgreen: I too felt pretty shaky post-op. I think the general really wipes you out (rather than the actual surgery), so I am not surprised you have had a run of illness.

The Dog Whisperer is on Sky 3 (freeview) everyday at 6pm. The guy is called Cesar Millan and he seems very effective as he deals with aggressive dogs mostly.

Cannabis affects long term cognitive abili...
