Squat Lobster.

Velvet swimming crabs are the smallish ones with dark shells and red eyes (I think)

Nope, squat lobsters are different, as we found out when we ate loads of them on the boat.

Just like a lobster, only smaller. Squat in fact!!

There are several different types of squat lobster.

According to my book of fishies it is a long clawed squat lobster.

edit...

are we talking about this one....

definitely a long clawed squat lobster

or this one?....

which could be anything, but looks like a spiny squat lobster
... I think

Remember that cramp in my hand that I thought would go away, well it did with a trip to the DDRC in Plymouth.

Cheers everyone down there for looking after me and fixing my hand.

I'm sorry to hear that I hope you're feeling fine now and, like with the car breakdown, better after the trip than before

Be well and take care

Cheers for the sympathy. Hand is ok now just a little tingle in the middle finger.

Note to self, dont deny and leave a bend for 4 days before getting it treated as it wont go away.

They put me in the pot for 3 sessions table 5 on Monday night( 5hours)
table 4 this morning for 3 hours and a further 2.5 hours with some other patents this afternoon.

It was Paul the Duck's and Andys Car ( Skoda that broke down), My Audi didnt have any problems exept attracting the police a bit so everything was brill.

Yes, I had posted better to break down on the way back so was just saying better to get your holiday in Scapa than get bent the week before.

That's quite a few sessions isn't it ? As they will have dealt with any bubbles are you left with that tingling purely down to tissue damage?

I think your comment "dont deny and leave a bend for 4 days before getting it treated as it wont go away " shouldn't just be a note to self but to all who suspect they have a bend

Good for you for posting this and pressing home that point

Glad to hear you are ok.

Speak soon Charley

The cant really tell if I have any lasting tissue dammage as it will be a matter if time for the dammaged tissues to heal, the 3 sessions were to promote the healing process though.

It isnt bad now just mild numbness in my middle finger and not the cramp that I had and could not make a fist.

Oh and the bonus is that DDRC rang Delta P who supplied the pin code for free to down load my VR3.

So there's allways a bright side.
