Dear LPG,

I remember dreading getting up in the mornings when I was a lot younger, and I know that about half of your readership also remember the days when they dreaded getting up in the mornings because of the symptoms that their childbearing years offered them.  I have to say that I was glad to put all that behind me, but now that I am getting a little older, the mornings have again become a little testing for me and I know that I am not alone here either.

I am in my mid 60s and, as such, consider myself to be a relatively young pensioner at the moment, but I have to say that it is gradually getting a little bit more uncomfortable and taking me just a little bit longer to get up each morning.  Since retiring one of my parents has decided to live with me.  I have to say that between us there is a lot of morning talk about aches and pains and I do wonder if some of what I feel is the result of sympathetic, psychosomatic symptoms, but in the mornings I ache these days.

I have taken to having a look at what your website has to offer each morning and, in spite of all the really diverse subjects that contributor’s offer, I have observed that there is one thing that a lot of them have in common.   The common denominator is that they tend to take a look at google when they want to know the answer to a question and I have learned to do the same.  I have found a few solutions to the morning stiffness issue and felt the need to share them with LPG readers.  I look forward to finding out if any of them help; especially as the weather turns colder again. 

KR. Bell Green.
