Still fighting the dreaded manflu. I suppose Ive been lucky, Ive hardly had a sniffle for 10 years or more, in fact I cant remember the last time I had the flu or even a cold. Ive also been lucky as Ive never had a flu shot, thinking it was a bit of a wank. Well this bout has knocked me for six and over the fence so Ive put myself on my doctors flu shot reminder register for next year. I sure as shit dont want to go through another month of this crap. Meanwhile Little Reggie has had some good news for a change in that the ulcers in his retinas are slow shrinking, it seems the meds are actually working. On the other hand his poor little swollen paw is still the same. Its obviously giving him bother but he runs around with no obvious limp of any complaint. He does cringe if you touch it though.The vet has left him on the anti inflammatory and antibiotic pills but admits that his anti immune system breakdown isnt helping. The swelling in the foot is vasculitis, the same problem that made his hair fall out.............................................On the bike side I had a call from Graeme Boyd last night with the good news that our 750 twins old school will be a part of a 5 round series next year including feature status at the Troy Bayliss Classic at Old Bar. Were also on the program at Newcastle Speedway and three or four tracks to be announced. If youve got one of these bikes, its time to polish it up, put some air in the tyres and go for it.......all fun.
