was there a few weeks ago for a music festival, so not much tourist advice.
But download the Bolt taxi app as they are very prominent there and cheaper than Uber.
Valetta is beautiful and worth a thorough mooch around. We did a catamaran trip to do the blue lagoon and Popeye place; was a great day out, but as much to do with being on a boat and the crowd i was with.
right then; this is an area of knowledge for me.. .and countless dog walks with Lblock discussing the issue of the prostate have been had.
firstly, mine hasn't been cancerous.... thankfully.
but 8 years ago at the age of 48, a chance discussion with my GP about my waterworks giving me issues led to a PSA test. 3 days later a retest was required as the results appeared faulty... 3 days later another call for retest. following that a call to get my arse in quickly as my PSA was between 11 and 12, rather than the sub 3 it should have been.
MRI and biopsy followed, the latter inconclusive so a bigger biopsy followed due to the concern. It transpires that it is not cancerous but quite 'hefty'
drugs were prescribed and quickly discarded after 'little westberks' succumbed to the main side effect of going into a permanent coma! As a newly single chap back in the dating game after 20 years, he needed to be on his best (not very good) form.
8 years later and my symptoms had gradually progressed to a point that i couldn't cope anymore so i went back into the system. MRI number 6 revealed that my prostate (which should be about 40cc) was 225cc and basically taking over my nether regions.... but still no cancer. my PSA had topped 20, so pretty impressive numbers
i was referred from Great Western to Reading, as they have better facilities and options, then immediately refereed to another department as it was still too big for their surgical options.
3 months ago I had pae (prostate artery embolisation) surgery. This is a reverse stent type of gig, where the main arteries supplying the prostate are blocked to cut off blood supply and help reduce it by starving it. Had the op during the first few days of the Euros and was home in bed watching the evening game the same day.
i was awake for the whole procedure, which was fascinating and terrifying in equal measures. Upshot of the is is still unsure as i'm awaiting the results of the follow up MRI. However I've had another PSA since then and that is down to 7.1. Almost half my first ever reading and 66% lower than my last and my symptoms have definitely improved dramatically
depending on the new measure they may go ahead and laser the bugger to hopefully give me a clear run for the next 10-15 years
in summary, get it checked. A finger up the arse and a blood test are not that big a deal and if you are peeing too much or have any family history get it done.
I do, but luckily have stayed on the old version due to some of the kit I have not being compatible with the later version.
2 zones disappeared completely recently, i guess due to an update, and after scratching my head for a few days i just turned off the power at the fuseboard for that part of the house, left it 20 minutes and when i turned it back on they reappeared!
Teskey Brothers are very good bluesy/country/rock duo from Australia. I saw them at a festival a few years ago and they are very good.
they've built up quite a following, but didn't think they were 3 nights at Apollo popular. Not likely to be a big chart or commercial radio presence, so easy to have missed them.....
equally i've not heard of the group you have tickets for
one of the truly great soul acts of the 80s. Fantastic live with one of the happiest & friendliest crowds you could imagine.
The last time i saw them at Hammersmith was probably 15 years ago and the crowd looked like every firm in London had turned up for a row, but all just sang along and hugged each other. loads of fat middle aged blokes having the very best of times.
RIP Frankie and thanks for the tunes and great night
Musclecars are a New York based duo, love their recently released debut album. This sounds great late at night, but the whole album is full of some great house vibes from jazzy to deep
