    [emoji23][emoji23] I did do 2 x 5 @40kg (20kg weights on each thing/side of machine on chest press machine) Didn’t feel to work the same though and besides that I want to go up very slowly on the free weights especially so I don’t hurt myself. I used the machines when I went to health club type gym years ago no free weights all machines with cables lifting the plates so this is first time with actual weights.

    And put pay down if they are rubbish? I don’t see how that would work. A basic wage with performance bonus that an employer couldn’t wriggle out of maybe?

    I managed the bar on its own for 3 x 10 tonight[emoji23] first go... maybe I shouldn’t have said that!

    Had proper flu twice. Last time being the worst. It took about 4 weeks to get back to normal. Eat right (as well as is possible anyway I didn’t feel like eating for a couple of weeks) and lots of sleep. I started to come out the other side when I started eating again if that makes sense

    Missed this one earlier. Thanks for that. I’m not looking to get huge or anything but would like to remove the beer belly (not that I drink and it’s not that bad!) And thinking that good all round extra strength will only be a good thing.

    Thanks for that I think I’ll go tonight when it’s busy and talk someone into watching me when they are in between lifts. It seems like lots of people in there spend as much/more time resting as lifting, but then they are lifting far far greater weight than I do since I’ve only done 7kg dumbbells and body weight[emoji5]

    You have all inspired me! So 2 weeks ago I joined the gym. I’ve been doing basic cardio and some bodyweight exercises (squats , rows(?), press ups and some dumbbell work on my sore shoulder) Question is what weight should I start on for the squats as after 2 weeks it’s seemingly pointless doing the squats now without weight as I’ve been doing 6 x 15. So need to add weight but don’t want to go too quickly and also need to just practice on low weight so I get the stance/ form whatever you call it right! Or do I need to get some training sessions? Thanks in advance Richard

    I’ve got a little 7 by 5 750kg caged indespension trailer. It’s a great little trailer. Obviously only good for small light stuff but build quality is good. I went brian James for the bigger trailer

    Do the farmers actually clear the mud up round your way? They seem to do it on a Friday if at all round here!

    Is agree with that [emoji106]

    I don’t feel sorry for them. It was a massive risk to put more than they could afford to lose into it. Who in their right borrows half a million to put into that?

    A new sign has appeared over the weekend saying the new bypass they are building will open winter 2018/19. That’s behind from a spring 2018 original completion date. If this is happening all over the place it’s no wonder they are busy as presumably there are penalties for not completing on schedule?

    That’s up to the client to decide though surely? If they decide they don’t won’t to wait they will call someone else in to do the work.

    Like I said it’s not just about money
  19. Richard 1234
    It seems to me that the remainers can’t get past money being everything. I voted out knowing that the economy would likely take a hit. The rich will still be rich, the poor poor and the middle will still be in the middle. It’s not all about money

    Hope they finish the bypass that’s not even half done before they go bankrupt! Or is this a tree firm of the same name?
  21. Richard 1234
    It would depend on the individual contracts, they won’t all be the same
  22. Richard 1234
    My imagination tells me first year or 2 will be no better but once they get a grip of it the service will likely be better and they will make money from it without it costing taxpayers anything more than it costs now. I could well be completely wrong though as I’m sure it’s a massive beast that will take some turning around. I have quite a lot of doctors as clients and they all say the same thing, too many managers and horrible waste of services. One example I heard before Christmas was putting weekend clinics on to cut waiting times paying doctors £600 a shift yet only booking 2 of 8 patients in while at the same time not filling the weekday clinics up. The waste is frightening!

    That’s just the first lovely thing the delightful woman has said, plenty more out there if you can be bothered to look Edit the first one I found! http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/kate-hopkins-lbc-radio-manchester-attack-final-solution-daily-mail-muslims-racism-a7756776.html

    It will be interesting to see if they can do it better, worse or about the same?
