Thought I'd get this forum underway. :D

Couch is o.k. but you have to get out of bed to get there...

I've always preferred the couch, but I guess if one could find a willing partner the gym'll do just fine :cool:

i've truied the gym and all my oxygen level got burned .. headache sux

Used to be the gym, pre-pregnancy. Now it's neither. :(

I'm with you. However, I have always loved the gym. I plan to try working out at home in a few months, once I can get the little darling to play by herself for a half hour or more.

Lisa

A bit of both :cool:

Don't actually attend a gym but have a little mini gym at home. Used to be really active training 6 nights of the week when I was with my Athletics club but then you have no time for anything else so gave that up.

Still think it's important to work out though especially when you have a job where you sit in front of a pc all day.

I'm going to try to do that as well. It just took me so long to start feeling normal again. My husband is an avid weightlifter though, so we have tons of stuff at home that I can play with as I have time. Finding time + energy is the problem though. :(

Used to do the gym in the winter to keep fit for walking, I don't see the point in walking in the cold and wet, I've not gone this year though, but I do try to walk everywhere and avoid lifts and escalators.

I also take the stairs at work when I can. I try to walk up to my office at least once a day, which is 8 floors from the basement level where I park.

Awesome pic.

Couch - sometimes you need to get up though to find the TV remote:(

In our office, I take my chair wherever possible rather than actually getting up... thats what the wheels are there for right?? ;)

Which bit did you eat for lunch?:confused:

I plan to go to the gym and usually arrive on the couch.

The thing about gyms, there are usually a lot of sweaty people milling around in close quarters.

Wondering where Brian went last summer...the Lake District? The Pennine Way? Not Minnesota.

I seem to remember Ken answering this just before the Forum went belly up.

Brian

This one?

Brian
Was that the one that was on it's way to bring you back down? :confused: :D

If only, coming down is hard on the old joints:)

It was on a training execise which nearly turned into a real exercise as its downdraught blew a climber off his hold, he was saved by his ropes but crashed into the rock face and sprained his wrist, resulting in him needing to be helped down by his companions.
I only know this as he is a work colleague of my walking buddy.

You should be able to upload the image to a free image hosting site like this one:

http://www.freeimagehosting.net/

After it uploads, copy the url and then do the 'Insert Image' thing on the toolbar...

Brian

Let the train take the strain :D

Thanks Ken I'll give it a go next time.

Brian

Nope can't figure it out, this modern technology is too much for me bring back the abacus and quill pen:D

still no good, but I can use that url to pick it up in WORD so does the Forum not like freeimagehosting or did I do something wrong at that end? Do I need to register?

Brian

Don't know -- I just edited my URL and the thing worked... Strange. Nice pic of the train, I presume...

Thanks for looking at it Tim, I gotta go now but I will return:D

Brian

Hey its just worked!!!! Loads of pics of the train now, pity its lost its impact as a reply to Rich, assuming it had any:D

Mmm. It doesn't appear that the remote server is currently cooperating... Too bad -- I enjoyed the pics and would have been happy to see more (from the Pennine, Cleveland, or any old Way).

Tim

Nice pic Rich, did you take it?

Brian

Nice pic Rich, did you take it?

Thats the Bristol to Penzance Intercity express, one of the West Country's finest first class trains Bri.;)

Col

LOL
You do realise Col that there are people out there that will believe you:D

Bri. . . . . .merely trying to educate the colonials in the British railway system. The Bristol - Penzance line used to have nice trains but privatisation and cutbacks forced the reintroduction of the express Rich pictured (I believe is does pass close to Plymouth).

Col

Nice pic Rich, did you take it?

Brian
Not that one, though I do have pics of that train somewhere;)

It's cheaper to fly from here than travel first class:rolleyes:

The Bristol - Penzance line...Col

I could have sworn that was the Middlesbrough-Whitby line...

No Tim, you're confused. This is the Whitby train, not Intercity you'll note

Oh, so that's it. I wasn't too far off-track, then.

LOL.

I'd like to think that we simply put a little life back into it by kicking it in the caboose.

This is more like the trains we have around here to go down to london on. :)
