Not that I agree with them, but the first 2 comments made sense (although andrew, I'd like to know which "huge chunks" he missed out, as I certainly didn't spot them), but the joint pain one, what the hell?! Tom's writing gives us an insight into his job and his life. That is all. There is no arrogance in his writing, he simply tells us things. Tom, whatever andrew thinks, be sure that the majority of us disagree - I for one really appreciate your writing, and though I have never met you, it is you who have confirmed to me my suspicions that I'm stupid enough to want to do what you do!
