    Another £10 off it with a code so it's £189, think I'm going to sleep on it, but I know I really want it!

    Just what I was going to ask too;)

    Now decisions,decisions. I saw a walking/running machine on the grabbit board earlier from T's which is £199 from £399. I'm seriously thinking about it, I've got room for it and have wanted one for ages just don't know whether to go for it or not:cool:I've never jogged and have a dodgy knee but thinking maybe if I started with the walking I could slowly build up to a gentle jog. I'd be too embarrassed to do it on the streets so this seems like the perfect idea:)

    If you walk on a hill setting, it can burn almost as many calories as jogging, and it puts less strain on your joints. I haven't looked at the treadmill, so i'm not sure it it's one which you can alter the incline on.

    What about a Wii fit if not, would you use that? I find really useful for a quick 30 min workout before work. It keeps my attention more than a treadmill, and ther eis more variety of things to do.

    The impact of jogging on hard concrete on the knee is much underestimated, cars have suspension, we have cartilage,

    shocks can be replaced..

    That's what I had done last year, cartilage repair and knee cleaned because of arthritis. The arthritis was caused by the cartilage repair I had when I was 16 :( Maybe I could get it just to use as a walking machine then;)

    just read its still not solved, a new water inlet valve is only £7-£18
    easy job. anyone can do it. just ask a few handymen. if you can make access to cystern easier for him it would cost less. i changed one for a friend and only charged him for part fitted. he also got me a couple of drinks.

    I know my post was so long I even got bored writing it!!!:rotfl:

    I do think it's probably a simple job when I can get access that's the problem , if I could get to it I could probably see what the issue is!!

    Loving the help on here - much appreciated!!!:T

    Meant to say my quiz team won my pub quiz tonight lol - lots of 90's music questions so I got most of them right! Only trouble is sometimes you realise how much you don't know!!
    :) Learn from the past, enjoy and appreciate the present and work to make your future the best it can possibly be :)

    And get lots of glitches!

    mmmmmm well wii fit:o:o:o:o:o been there, got it, insisted I'd use it everyday. Used it for about a month:o I could ressurect it I suppose:cool: I think I'm seeing the machine as a bit of a challenge.I've given up smoking for 3 months now and when I smoked used to get so out of breath, but now I can walk & talk at the same time;) Thinking about it I also have a brand new bike thats been sitting in the bike shed for two years:oOff to see if it inclines:)

    Thanks deb, I normally do about 6 exercise classes a week and go to the gym but I'm in agony with shin splints so I thought I'd go back to swimming for a bit. In my youth (6years ago lol) I used to do 2-3 miles a day every day but I started back last week and I'm up to a mile in 40 minutes (breaststroke) which I'm quite happy with considering Im a bit older and a lot heavier!

    Well done smart1e on winning the pub quiz! What's the prize?
