Vertigo is the sensation of moving when you are not.
It can be quite aggressive at times or in the background waiting to spring any moment.
Everything spins when I move my head and I have trouble focusing and concentrating.
The biggest challenge is to not fall over and get injured.
It is worse than being drunk all the time.
It is usually caused by an inner ear problem of some sort.

I am getting used to it and adapting slowly so try not to feel too sorry for me.
I just hope it isn't permanent - if it is then I will have to deal with what that means for me.
The worst of it is frustration of not being able to do so many things. I also get bored.
So I try to deal with that for the time being.
But this very minute I have fish fingers in the oven so that should make me feel pretty good in about 5 minutes.

Probably. They are just shaped fish with bread crumbs.
I am having egg rice with them - yum. Just because I can.

Yup sounds like fish sticks
I haven't had them in forever I loved dipping mine in ketchup as a kid and we would eat them with fries (I think in the UK you guys call them chips) or tator tots.

I worked in a restaurant when I was 18 and a pub.
The pay in the restaurant was way below the minimum wage and we were expected to make up our wages in tips. The management was horrible.
The pub was minimum wage but we did get drinks bought for us which we could have at the end of the evening. I liked the pub more because it was my local too and I knew most of the customers.
I am glad I had the brief experience of both because it opened my eyes up to the difference in how I could be treated.

For non-Brits the min wage then was more of a guide (totally ignored in Lincolnshire). When the proper one came
in just before I got my first job I was
. Everyone called it a pittance on the news but here it made a real difference to a lot of people.
Thanks that helps us youngsters understand it too.
If it was back then I'd definitely leave a tip because it's part of someone's wage.
Nowadays I get the feeling people would be a bit offended by it and they have a proper wage anyway.

Tipping was less common back then. Waiting staff were paid the same as jobs like shop assistant and factories so
they didn't think of it as not getting their full wages, it's just that wages at the bottom were low.
