Hi Jeffthro, Like you I too used to play sport, cricket first then Hockey, was 21-23 then injured both knees in consectutive years which put paid to that. Worked them to hard and trained twice a week outdoor, twice a week indoor, 3 games a weekend and went over the top with fitness back then, took many years to get knees back in shape, i think playing keeper in hockey did some damage but playing out at inside right finished them off with full length pitch runs, one of my positives was being able to run very fast then, more of a jog nowadays lol. As for missing playing I agree, but not sensible now so golf(learning amateur)fishing (lifelong since 4yrs old) and landscape painting are my pastimes all at leisurely pace. jeffers
