My left hip is to put it bluntly - knackered!

An unusual post! At the time this post appears I will be having or have had an operation for a new hip! My left hip is to put it bluntly - knackered! After several decades of use including over 250,000 miles of cycling (if I were a car I would probably be scrapped at that mileage!) the ball part of my thigh gas worn away and anyone who has had osteoarthritis will know how bad the pain of bone on bone movement can be!

Hopefully all will go well with that and I will be pain free and after a period of recovery able to walk reasonably well again1

As for model making activities? Well those will be put on hold for a while and I did a YouTube video covering what that absence can be like. I already posted it about a week ago but here it is again.
