    "Some" people. I can only think of two usual suspects.

    I suspect they wouldn't be the culprits in this case.
    :shocked: Think of the shoe-miles... :naughty:

    I know, and they were wet. Think of all that deep sea jogging getting themselves across the Atlantic. Amazing that they managed to get across the Mid-Atlantic ridge (Maybe I haven't quite understood shoe miles? ;)) Think I'm going on a Park Run on Saturday so we'll see how they stand up to hard surfaces.






    And you mostly only see the back of them...

    I will get the chance for a closer inspection at the end.

    Variety is the spice of life. Though I'm not sure if that covers you having a selection of people who annoy you.

    Like food miles, but for shoes. Though for some people it's the same...

    Did a run last Saturday Z. 5k in 37 minutes. I was quite pleased. Next one is either next Wed or Saturday, as I am in Whitehaven working for Mr Alchoholic Beligerant tomorrow and the weekend. Can hardly wait!

    What are you up to this weekend Skinty?

    You should be very pleased. That's faster than London car traffic.

    I'm sure you're gagging for it. Or is he choking for it? I can't quite decided where to divide the line...

    :wave:Hello Z and Butti (and anyone else lurking or passing)!

    Was actually thinking of taking DS away for a couple of days this weekend but he's not too well so not up to very much:o
    Plodding in the garden and doing housework today but hopefully he'll pick up a bit.

    On money matters still job free and in an effort to save money I bought an epilator saving waxing money - jeez the pain of being poor :rotfl::rotfl: actually it's not too bad except armpits - ouch!!! Got car fixed for free ;):D and have spent lots of time flirting with ex but nothing to report...

    Well done on the running Butti, I have been sticking to Ms Michaels torture dvd and have lost about half a stone and a couple of inches from my waist:cool: it's been too hot for me to run but maybe this week (except I have to move up a level on dvd so walking may prove problematic:o).
    Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000
    Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

    Mortgage balance: £36,210

    Spend more time flirting with other blokes, then you will have plenty to report... :naughty:

    Didn't someone say that about having their tonsils removed with a rusty spoon via their ailimentary canal?

    Ahh...but you know he's not good for you - too fast with extremely poor road holding and shocking economy...

    But once you've done it once it's a case of just keeping on top of it so not so bad;) legs not painful at all surprisingly enough!
