After years of not running at all, I challenged the wife to a "run around the block".....I thought I was bad but she lasted 10 metres, bless her ! :rotfl:

I staggered in 10 minutes later having made a 3/4 mile loop feel like a marathon

With me charity begins right outside my doorstep and they're seem to be plenty of takers from kids toys right down to 1991 hifis :eek: ! (No need for this freecycle.co.uk lark)

I was so unfit that quicker batsman in cricket would lap me!
