Thanks for all your opinions - I've sought out lots, including from people who have managed without an ACL.
I've decided to have the reconstruction earlier (that is next week), as it means I'll only have one rehab to do, not two. Stuffs up my walking plans, but will be road crew, and will need to find another trip leader. Its taking a group of venturers (older scouts) on the overland track and we've already booked and paid airfares. Oh well, these things are sent to try us.
I'm actually getting around pretty well today using a brace that the physio has lent me.
