Re: British Home Stores

Re: The new improved fitness thread

... a few on the treadmill so far, but one thing is for sure, my shoes are past their best. I have been running in Adidas Boost for the last couple of years, but I'd say I've put more than the recommended miles on them. The sole is 50% smooth! A work mate that runs marathons has recommended Hoka One ...

We were gutted to lose the game, our first semi final in 30 years, but when we heard what had happened at Hillsborough football became insignificant. Ironically our first game of the next season was actually ...

Re: The free press

Sadly it does, particularly in South America.

The main issue is that the police with the help of the government covered up a lot of evidence and it's taken 27 years to get this far. They knew well before the event that the ground wasn't suitable.

Re: What are you eating ??

Cheeseburger and fries with a Diet-Coke to keep my svelte figure to it's usual trim rotund form.

Why is it at close to 50, with only moderate exercise at the moment, I can eat as much crap as possible each and every day and still be the same weight as I was 30 years ago??

It defies logic.

Re: I am quite proud of myself

Dad gave up after being told he wouldn't have legs within a few years, Mum gave up when the Doctor looked at her and said "- and you'll be pushing his wheelchair, because if you don't give up he won't either." Fair play to them they'd both smoked ...

Re: I am quite proud of myself

Well done TC, it's not an easy thing to do, so you should be proud.

I forget how long ago it was that I quit, something like 12 years. I cheated though and used drugs, mind you I was smoking about 40 Marlborough red's a day...

Re: Maverick Vinales wants quick decison on his MotoGP futur

I'm not entirely sure he has done enough yet to warrant a top Factory ride. Once you take on those rides you have at best two years to prove yourself. Thing is teams need to secure talent for the future. Also as Yamaha have found out to their peril having two No.1 riders is not a nice ...

This makes an interesting read, but bear in mind it was 3 years ago and things have got a lot worse.

Re: In, out or shake it all about?

Re: Mr Postman

They always like you to have a years experience on a litre bike so maybe the software wrongly things you have zero big bike experience because of the 0 NCB.

Ring and explain and hopefully things will improve. Fingers crossed it will as doubling is naughty.
