Another car deliberately through pedestrians. Heard he crashed and public pulled him out. Should have lynched him.

Unfortunately this seems to be the norm in recent years too in Australia.

Horrific to read that this arvo and hope those two muppets are severely dealt with.

Actually probably every day it makes me angry.

The old GQ is still sitting in the same spot with the same issues

Playing basket ball with my kids on Friday arvo, in bare feet as one does. Some how I manage to catch my big toe on the bitumen and kinda roll the toe under my foot. I ripped a nice chunk of flesh of the tip of the toe. Tis' alright, just clean it up and cut off the flappy bit of skin. I go to bed that night and wake up in the middle of the night with the knuckle part of the big toe in excruciating pain. So i didnt sleep much from then on. Even right now I can't put any pressure on the ball of the foot when I walk.
I find a doctors open the next day, told her what happened, she take one look at it and says, you have gout! The injury has bought it on, if the pain was due to the actual injury it would have been sore instantly. This wasn't, it was fine until that night.
Great! So I'm having a blood test on Wednesday for gout. Seafood, shellfish and booze are two of the main causes, and I enjoy them both, a lot. Lets hope the doctor is wrong and the blood test come back with a negative. Stuffed if im stopping the indulgence. Its bloody Christmas!

Whilst I agree that it would be hard to stop your indulging over the Christmas break just be bloody careful as GOUT is a most painful disease

Anyway have great Christmas

Yeah, a Gout diagnosis and a love of Seafood meant i nearly burst into tears some years ago.
Gout bloody hurts but not being able to eat seafood would be agony

I love seafood, really love it and the richer the better, Tiger Prawns and Muddies are my fav

My Dr has me on a low dose of Allopurinol for control of Gout for about 10 years now and it means I can demolish a kilo of Prawns or a big Muddie and also hook into the Fish and Chippies once or twice a week no worries.

Only had two attacks of Gout since i started the Allo, one when I forgot to pack it when i went up North for a 2 week work trip and one a few years ago when I got complacent and stopped taking it for 3 weeks or so.
