I've met some spineless bastards in my life but it's only now that I realise how lucky they are: not only do they never get into trouble for voicing their opinions or taking sides but they also never suffer backpains.
I have both, voiced my opinions and taken sides, and now also suffer excruciating backpains. It happened two days ago when I was doing some light gardening-work and couldn't get up again. Pains across my hips and down my spine.
Out came the old trusty OSRAM infra-red heat lamp which gave some temporary relief. A friend - not a spineless one! - suggested Voltaren Emulgel so I'm off to the chemist this morning.
