    Even with one (functional) arm you’re better than 99% of the rest of the Detailers around the world.
    Hope you get well soon. Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year Jim.
    Thanks for so many incredible videos this year!

    Hi Jim, since the Christmas party at the Peninsula, the car has competed in the Tour Auto from Paris to Biarritz, the Mille Miglia Warm -up based around Ascona in Switzerland and the Mille Miglia from Brescia to Rome and back. We finished every event without any issues and I drove the car to and from each one. It was also on Chicane's stand at the AMOC Heritage Festival a few weeks ago. Still looking great, thanks once again for a fantastic job!! John

Little wonder the car was awarded the inaugural "Rory McGregor Piston Award for AML Restoration" at the AMOC Area 00 (London) Christmas Party. Great job, Jim.

    Just a thought on your elbow pain and radiating shoulder pain.....riding motorcycles can be very uncomfortable due to an often unnatural position. If you have pinched a nerve in one of your spinal vertebrae, you will get a radiating pain from, and through your shoulder as you described. Your C6 is a common one (depending on your posture on your bike...are you too tall for it, too small etc etc) to cause the sensation you described. Just ask a decent chiropractic specialist to give you the once over. You may find you need an adjustment and if you do need one, that pain might be able to be removed with the right guy. Try and go for word of mouth recommendation near you and book yourself in for an inspection with him. It might be a waste of money but given that you often stoop over in your job, you might find its the best spending of £40-50 you have ever spent.
    Hope this finds you well. Happy Christmas.

    As someone with both Large and Small nerve damage for the best part of 18yrs i can agree its no fun. Unfortunately if it is nerve damage then there is no cure or fix. I can only recommend going into a pain clinic, GP's cannot really help you for pain. Here in the UK, "Tapentadol" is the best drug for helping with pain. Its specifically designed for nerve related pain. Only released in 2012 so still relatively new. As of 4 years ago i got a "Nevro Spinal Cord Stimulator" implant done at St Thomas hospital in london. Absolutely amazing. I no longer have any pain. But if i turn the stimulator off then i will be crying within mins. Best of luck with your diagnosis.

    I can fully sympathise with your pain and symptoms. In 2016 I prolapsed 2 discs in my cervical spine. I had horrendous nerve pain down my left arm into my fingers. After several months awaiting surgery I eventually lost control of 2 of my fingers. Surgery was the only option. I had ACDF Surgery to C5/C6 C6/C7 which involved to implant discs being fitted and a metal plate to create a fusion. After several months and successful surgery I was completely pain free with full strength back in my arm and fingers. I hope you get sorted ASAP Jim and manage to get some rest over the Christmas period. Stay safe and get plenty of rest. Merry Christmas to you and all of your subscribers. 👍👌🎅🎄

    Trapped nerve at the bottom of your shoulder blade.
    Stretching exercise’s required.
    Arms straight up and make a Y, force your arms back and head forward until it hurts, hold that shape until the pain reduces.
    Now lower your arms to make a cross and do the same.
    Lower again so you look like the letter A and do the same again.
    Repeat these exercise’s before or after work.

    One of the joys of advancing years Jim. A few years ago I developed chronic knee pain that lasted for months. I could barely bend my knees and it seemed to come out of nowhere. In the end I discovered it was all due to me putting cranks on my mountain bike that were 5mm shorter than my previous ones, then neglecting to adjust my seat height! 🤔 I did a thorough bike fit and the knees were fine within a couple of weeks.
    I do a thorough stretch session at least once a week now and find it very beneficial.
