    This has got to be the 10th wasp I've swatted out of the house, what the hell's going on with wasps today?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Hubbles already spoke to them - strangely there's a holding fee for suspending membership but no joining fee so will be better off just cancelling and rejoining. £50+ membership a month is a bit steep for a paddle and a stroll...

    Don't they offer an off peak membership or a minimal use membership?

    That's full membership including racquet club (and an outdoor pool for the rare hot summer weekends:p ) and sauna etc. The gym is totally immaculate, has recently had an upgrade to state of the art equipment and we practically live in the place, work permitting so we consider it worth it. When we're 'in the zone' (5-6 times a week for 90mins to 2 hours a session)so to speak it averages to about £2.50 per 2 hour session each so pretty good value I reckon...


    OMG we sound like a right meat head and gym bunny. I promise I don't wear a lycra thong over cycle shorts:rotfl:
