I didn't go today. 45 min call with boss = gym time
Although my gym is pretty spartan. I pay less for gym than I do for parking at work :rotfl:

My work one is £20 a month which is pretty good. No point in paying loads for an expensive gym, I suppose if you go swimming a lot it might be, but I am not a fan of swimming.

I prefer it to drowning (n.b. not after watching an episode of Strictly)

Did you drain it properly first, as in leave it to sit in the colander for a bit?

Well I spent 30 seconds squeezing all the water out of it first. I haven't got time to sit around waiting for it to get cold, as I like to eat within 30 seconds of getting in through the front door, and I have to dispatch the greens first before eating anything else.

Must not try and take things personally on forums, after all people don't know me right? :-/

Does anyone have any forum etiquette rules they would like to share? I am a novice when it comes to the use of forums but in my short experience it can seem like people can be very snidey to one another, especially if you were silly enough to write a post or two in the marriage and family section. Lesson well and truely learnt!

:-S

I am an expert on etiquette of all kinds, especially forum etiquette. The correct response is to point out that you didn't ask to be judged by them on some tangential theory, but if it's all the same to them you wouldnt mind if they effed off!

Middymum. Let me save you from you next forum mistake. We love chewy in the way you love a grouchy and very old dog. One whose eyes leak and who growls a lot, bites you a lot but not hard because it hurts his gums, not because he doesn't mean it. Old people ( or single women, disappointed they never got married and had children) often have this sort of dog.

Now chewy darling, you know i don't mean it much, have a biscuit, there is a good little man.

If in doubt, smile and nod. Not just at chewy. Ut at people on the relationship forum too.

Out of laziness i don't wring spinach, i put it back in the pan i just drained it from and let any fluid evaporate.

I just wanted to say that I never post on the relationships forum, too much like a bear pit at times. This from someone who occasionally posts on Discussion Time.

We have been talking lots about getting two kittens to join mauve squeaker and pink whistley. We have debated this a lot, but always decided not to as the four of us are such a tight unit. We don't want them put out, nor do i want the bond challenged too far. But parent feels left out of cat love, because the cats choose us first. So, we are looking for kittens. W know exactly what we want. I only have one name atm though. Dh said he did not like Tuttifruiti. Which i think is sweet, if a litle ordinary.

If it is too ordinary, how about other Italian dessert names? Zuppa Inglese or Stracciatella sound suitably bonkers to me, though if it was fir's cat I would call it affogato.
