            Hello @dem63 and a warm welcome to our online community.
 Wow, I am very envious of you having been raised in Greece! How are you finding life in Manchester? I can imagine it's a little different (and colder ). ).
 I'm sorry to hear you had a stroke that's left you with some problems, are you receiving any support with that and your diabetes?
 I can see you've already made some posts on the community which is fab. Please let us know if ever we can be of help. Take care and I hope to speak again soon.1

            many many thanks for the welcome Cher !!
 when I first came it was WINDchester , then it was RAINchester , after I got the message for no carrying umbrella with me at all , it was just Manchester  
 Stroke happened from uncontrolled diabetes , this incident took place at Greece , I came here and worked all these years with one hand , the right one , left is with spasticity , but because of this some time now I started to have pain with the "good" hand , so I started the PIP procedure .
 I found you accidenally , but you have lot of info and support , so I am happy to be here !!0
