At last a positive use for those kicking legs!

A few weeks ago, as a tail end of something I posted on this site, I asked if anyone had thought of a positive use for restless legs. I never got a reply (surprisingly!:)). Well, a short time ago my legs were really kicking as I waited (im)patiently for the pramipexole to kick in (we can't avoid that expression can we?!). Anyway my wife just returned from the gyn complaining about one of the tyres on our car having something wrong with it. I checked the pressure and it was way too low, so I got the foot pump out of the boot and pumped way. It took blooming ages. The up side: it helped relieve my RLS! So folks, perhaps we should all go into business as manual tyre inflaters...

All the best to all of you, Tpebop, Kent, Britain.
