What's the age profile of your fellow patients? Yes saw the Physios eyeing me up this morning before I went down The look like the Rosa Klebb sisters Age profile? Put it like this, I am the only one who hasn't got all his teeth in a cup by the bed, but at least I get good WiFi throuput in this ward the rest of them thinks the WiFi sign is the corner to pee in

I have plates and pins in one leg. Its never reacted with a scanner yet. Airport security scanners are more sensitive to some metals than others. The shape, orientation and location within the scanner also affects the sensitivity. The later versions are much better than the old ones but they can still be difficult to setup to differentiate between something which could be steel wire in a bra, plates and pins in a leg or a concealed boxcutter knife to be used as a weapon. That's why we are sometimes asked to remove shoes or subject to a secondary hand scanner (shoe shanks were a problem with some equipment). Other than the damn queues I have no problem with that.

Even at Havana I had special me only security queue, pushed to front of immigration queue, use of Virgins first class checking. At Gatwick I had man with leccy buggy, ( ok not a Tesla) special gate at immigration to my self where border agency man comes to greet you, man picks up your bags and takes you all way to the coach stop out front and loads your bags for you

Yeah, I worked hard on my smug grin, practised it for days in the sun by the pool Edit, and note I use the term "special needs" now rather than raspberry
