    Is it not within your own county or did I misread that part. Not that it bothers me as I think it’s a load of bollox in relation to outdoor activities anyway.

      Nah, 20km is allowed even if it goes into another county. Of more concern to the HH clann is their reliance on public transport. He might want to print up an appointment with Bray dentists if he doesn't want to get fucked out of the dart/bus/taxi by the rozzers.

        Month One of 'operation get slightly fitter' complete.
        This started on 28-Feb when I weighed myself for the first time in a few months. 13 stone 3, WTF? I laughed heartily at Mrs D3 for buying such an obviously malfunctioning device as I have been 12st 7" continuously for about 25 years but, a heated conversation later, I was persuaded that the scales were in fact not rigged. So have been going on a cycle early every morning for all of March - managed to do all 31 days (and only get wet once), usually go out as far as Sutton on the coastal cycle path and come back, about 12km round trip, doing it as fast as I can such that I arrive back in a muck sweat and ready for the breakfast.
        Then a few basic core strength exercises - planks, crunches and press ups. Started out being able to do a pathetic 7 press ups but now up to a record of 16.

        Ambition for April:
        1. Continue with the daily cycles but throw in a few ascents of the Alpe de Howth Head for variety and to see if I die in the attempt.
        2. If the drill instructor from Full Metal Jacket appears to me and starts roaring that 'I didn't know they stacked shit this high' and telling me to drop and give him twenty, that I'd be able to do it.
        We'll tackle the healthy diet stuff at a later date. Baby steps.

          Ha. I hit a nice round 20 stone at christmas. Was tempted to go for the full morbidly obese, in the hope of getting vaccinated early, but thankfully sobered up. Have lost a pound every 8 days or so since, mostly by cutting out the big breakfast and having a more normally sized dinner.

            Good LOL at the pisspoor Gavin Jennings getting torn a new one by Pascal on the radio this morning when he started making snide comments about FG's record on children's shoes.

            Pascal sent him off with his tail between his legs, he's some performer in the media

              I started a month fitness in January. To undo 2020.
              Started it again in February.
              Didn’t even both lying to myself in March.

              Telling myself now I’ll knuckle down after Easter.

                          How do you think in stone, and I think in kg, despite being quite similar ages? We might have been a few critical years apart in school, because by the time i did the junior cert (I think it was the second year of it being the junior cert rather than the inter cert), there wasn't a stone or a pound in sight. I'd just have no conceptualisation what 13 stone 3 is without googling.

                            The sad truth I learned, mainly through on here, as someone who has shot up from a lifetime consistent 65kg (10.2st in granddad weights) to 79kg (12.4st) in the last year, is that exercise is almost no benefit in terms of weight. Its all about eating less.

                                  I went from 67kg to 88kg over the pandemic, that is impressively bad! I ate the same (apart from the free candy and pastries) but used to exercise a lot every day, went to 0. Decided to do something about it as eventually I'm going to have to be able to wear the clothes I own when we go back outside and as I have a court date in June I kinda would like to fit in a suit. At 86kg and falling now. In general it is about eating less but I would consistently be doing over 1000 cals in exercise every day before. Climbing, football, yoga, weightlifting @gym, running, dancing, 2-3 hour walking every day.

                                        I have no problem with the running, cycling (turbo trainer), weights, walking, stretching and even digging in the garden while golf is out.

                                        It's the eating junk bit I struggle with. Must eat a pound of butter a week to start with.

                                        Quick 3km jog at lunchtime yesterday. Pace 5min 40s per km. Avg heart rate 161. Max 185 (shitty Mi Band 3 watch). The auld ticker looks to be struggling.

                                        WFH bin is a disgrace.........

                                          So glad I've no sweet tooth. I'm already a carb addict

                                          When I got injured in Nov I put on a fair few KG . Exercise sure keeps the weight off. If you need to be skinny though the food intake needs to be reduced. I'm happy to be moderately obese. .

                                            I'm fat and fit.

                                              TBH, I'd imagine the biggest factor of all is genetics.

                                              Maybe I can write my will accordingly:

                                              "Hi kids, this is your father speaking from beyond the grave. I have good news and bad news. The bad news is I spent all my loot on trips to Vegas, expensive wine and slow horses. The good news is that I have left you something more valuable - my lean physique has been transferred down the generations. Use it wisely.

                                              P.S.: the house is remortgaged, you have 3 days to GTFO."

                                                    not really though, as SP pointed out yesterday, all they do is convert your crypto to your currency of choice before settling the payment

                                                      I can't see any other way to start using cypto for them than this initial path. What they will need to do next is allow people to deposit and withdraw crypto.

                                                        no i measure height in feet. Six foot etc is such an engrained measurement. But its weight and the use of stones that seems odd.

                                                          Struggling a bit with weight and exercise at the moment. my multi year weight chart is ridic 120 kg -> 79 in one year five years to get back up to 97 then 7 months back down to 79 and today I'm 87

                                                          Running has been off the charts since lockdown, my runningmost year before was c.850K and I'm now on a rolling 12 month 2100Km but I seem to be running a bit slower every time.
                                                          Anyway I've managed to get in at least one half marathon a month since lockdown and its the 31st of march so I either do it this evening or break that sequence.

                                                          I don't have to do anything ... but I just got a nice box of meat cheese and cake from Italy so I'm going to finish up work early go out at 3 and I may or may not be gone some time

                                                                In the context of what I was saying last week about probably not wanting to finish working in that dim distant future where I'm no longer employed I can imagine it being a viable option. No2 Daughter has a reasonably clear mid term plan towards a sheep's cheese production business that might integrate well with it.

Before that every analogue set of scales I had had the imperial units printed in a much larger font, that just made them easier to read. Measure height in metric too since about then. Still use inches for clothes sizes usually, and whatever the UK units are for shoe sizes.

It’s interesting the influence of Bach . Paul McCartney stated ‘Blackbird’ was inspired by Bach – well the guitar piece that everyone whoever took up a guitar has learned off.
                                                                                                                  When you look at the charts these days you can get dismayed at the level of basic competence and what is accepted , however if you look a little closer there are a batch of young instrumentalists who are honing their stuff in college and crossing genres with their interpretations. Example Molly Tuttle went to Berklee (spelling?) and a few of her college mates are all quite accomplished musicians. Her Clawhammer technique is very impressive, so there is hope for those of us who prefer to watch the craft of musicianship. I used to call myself a guitarist but looking at the skills of some of these folk I keep very quiet about it these days. Put you to shame they would.

                                                                                                                  “Then Tina started laughing and said, ‘He went to have a shower, then he walks out, stark naked, wearing one of my spare wigs.

                                                                                                                  Sun
                                                                                                                  “He started singing Rolling On The River and was dancing just like me’.

                                                                                                                  “They had fun. It wasn’t love, it wasn’t an affair, it was just a moment of explosive chemistry. It definitely brought a whole new meaning to ‘Private Dancer’ [Tina’s 1984 hit ].

                                                                                                                  That night I went with Tina to the NEC for the performance. David appeared at the top of a long flight of stairs on the stage.

                                                                                                                  Tina turned round with the biggest smile that said, ‘I had an exciting night’. The atmosphere between them was electric.

                                                                                                                  “On stage he whispered something to her and Tina burst out laughing.

                                                                                                                  “She later told me he’d said, ‘My c**k is still sore’. He was one of only a few lucky men who won over Tina.”

                                                                                                                  And! If you check out the YouTube video you can easily lip read Bowie’s comment and Tina’s reaction!
