Rigga, I've got a doctor's note about carrying big sticks. Health and safety risks and all that, can't be too careful at my age. Still, mustn't grumble. Even though the shrapnel in my leg tends to give me a bit of gip this cold weather.
I'm off to get some Vicks vapour rub on me chest and a hot Ovaltine drink to take to bed, before the wheezing gets worse (or was it wee-ing the doctor said? Better check that with nurse).
