    Only rugby and fighting injuries.

    I've an ankle that clicks when walking up stairs when the weather is cold or damp, thanks to breaking my ankle playing rugby, and I've lost a knuckle and broken a finger from my 'rougher' days. These also give some discomfort when its cold, especially my former broken finger which I never sought medical treatment for. The plus side if that I can now point around corners with the finger as it's crooked.

    Stuff it full of Holy Wafers, in case he's a Vampire (if you think the fact he's been seen in daylight means he's not, you're wrong - read Bram Stoker...)

    I was thinking of cutting bits off him to see if they grow back (and, more interesting, if the bits we cut off grow into new Ixions) to test the Human/Starfish hybrid theory.

    Of course, he could merely be a fellow werewolf or a mutant just awaiting the Adamantium skeleton and retractable blades... Check for excessive rudeness and a predilection for cheap cigars.

    Never got involved in rugby - I mainly participated in the time-honoured sport of "beat the crap out of the short geeky guy"...

    ... I was the short geeky guy.

    I used to defend myself whenever possible so my motorcycle-induced broken wrist is overshadowed by the misaligned knuckles and greensticked bones in the back of my hand that I received whilst attempting to dissuade someone from hanging me by my belt from a coat hook. The stupid quack the school brought in reckonned I hadn't broken anything (never trust a doctor who can't even cure his own stutter) so it was never immobilised (not that it would have served much, I suspect).

    In the damp or if I've been writing/typing a lot, my hand aches first and then my wrist aches.

    Your grandfather ? Was he the little kid hanging around when I was testing the racing Norton that's in my avatar picture ? Cheeky little brat, tried to knock me cap off, I'd've given the little perisher wot fer if I'd caught him.

    So you're his grandson aye ? Well, figures, they say like father , like son.

    Can't've been. If it were my grandfather, he'd've got your cap off. And made off with your Norton too.
