It's been a rough few months, recovering from Viral Meningitis that I contracted back in November. Basically suffering blinding migraines, extreme exhaustion and what I can best describe as seasickness 
Have been bedridden for the last 10 days with a chest and throat infection too. Slept perhaps 90 mins each night, and have to often stay in a dark room to keep the migraines at bay.
Annoyingly, even a wee dram makes the migraines worse, so I've been completely buggered, with no escape.
.. I get 15 minutes of time on my feet before I have to lay down again for a couple of hours Knackered.
Ride the bike? No - can barely stand half the time... Haven't even looked at it since November!
And no one cares - yup, feeling sorry for myself.
I had just about given up on humanity , when the universe realigned itself quite nicely.
My neighbour popped in to see how I was, and brought me a present.
He sold his commuter motorbike when he retired, and thought I might like his motorbike battery charger.
( if you've been following the threads, I've been wondering what to do regarding battery maintenance on my LC.)
What a very nice surprise - an Accumate charger, with all the leads and a wall bracket. For some reason this cheered me up immensely - far more than I would ever have thought it could.
I spent one of today's 15 minutes of "upright time" fitting my new charger to my LC - used the flying lead for now, will fit an aux socket fitted later. Got it finished and connected just as the ringing in my ears started ( that's the three minute warning I get before another migraine strikes)
And the world feels a slightly better place tonight.
Mike,
