This planter faciitis has been a real drag. Went for X ray but no bones chipped but I still can’t walk very well. I have done all the exercises, the ice etc. Doctor says it will heal but seemingly it can take from six months to a year. Any advice greatly appreciated. Walking on front of foot.

The oil industry is over … get an EV and solar panels and say it isn’t so. Only politicians like Farage and Trump cling on to this outdated industry which pollutes the planet so they can benefit financially.
