    And of course everything should be dropped at a moment's notice because you're in the area. Including the kids.

    Because they're just baggage?



    Son? You're not trying to be patronising are you?
    Describe everything?

    If you mean taking daughter to her dads, then yes. And do you know why? Because it is exactly what I would do to see somebody that I love when I have no idea when I will be seeing them next.

    It is called love, you stick to your computers, son.

    To have a large armed service, you need a large economy. A large *real* economy.

    Selling houses to one-another does not get ships built.
    Aye we did have an Empire, but we do have a Commonwealth. I think in summary, we are an Island nation and one would have to question our ability to defend our own coastline when so many of our units are deployed; standfast Trident of course.

    you don't need the book..there is so much info on the web. Tell us what your aims are and what you want to be able to do and Im sure we can point you in the right direction

    Well..... I have been walking for a bit, roughly 1-2km (to and from the station) for a couple of weeks.

    Now trying to add extra walks in the evening. and the running bit (dear God I feel like a prat!)

    was looking at a five km in May.

    already found a couple I could sign up for.

    and was sort of vaguely thinking about a 10km - perhaps the leeds one but not really sure if that is totally bonkers.

    :confused:

    re Leeds, plenty people walked it last year, so no shame in that babes... if you look at their website you can see the finishers, many are around 2 hours, which would be walking pace....

    you should definitely do Leeds, lots of us will be!!
