I'm doing a big of a bucket-list run-through and trying things I've never done before.
The last two have been real let-downs - I tried black pudding - never liked the thought of it - and it was gross - like a great big greasy scab.
The other is something that my brother-in-law has been promoting for years - a McFish Fillet burger. It's the only thing he eats from McD.
Had one yesterday - it's just a big fish finger with practically no flavour. Watery and bland. It rates as a great big 'meh'.
What have you done recently that was not as described?
went up in a small plane [,wife bought an experience as a birthday present] ,done a loop the loop and a barrel run,sick for a few hours after and next morning world started spinning ,lasted on and off for about 2 years.Something to do with crystals in the inner ear becoming detached .
and i always had the idea to get a horse and train it to ride and do farm work, saw a unbroken 2 year old ardenne mare at new forest auction and went for it ,took about 2 years but did ride her and pulled a few logs around .but found my anxiety levels make horses spooky ,even bombproof ones start getting nervous with me ,so was all a bit dissapointing and i broke 4 ribs
Oh that's interesting about the sickness. I get that too. If I move at all e.g. car, bus, playground swing, I feel terrible and it lasts hours/ days. I don't move at all now, I stay still at home and don't go out.
it might be bppv its calcium crystals get dislodged in the ear and trigger the feeling of spinning ,you sort of move your head in a certain way to get them back where they should be called the Epley maneuver. but it does take a while to work totally,
Another thing that helps is lying on your back on a Pilates roller. I'm not sure what their proper name is, it's like a solid tube with a bumpy surface. It resets your spine, it does wonders for me.
Oh can I look up the Epley manoeuvre? I will. Sounds interesting! I'm always getting dizzy.
