    Hello Lisa - that's funny about your different reactions to the kids leaving! Glad you had a good ride. How's the ankle, any better? Jody - was that the original PHA or the Lite one? I'm doing the plyo option on the legs so the weights aren't so heavy. It was still pretty tough when I did it...

    Hi ladies Mary - still mowing? I think I might have finished for the year. What sort of workouts are you into at the moment? Lisa - Have you ever tried swimming? That's supposed to be good exercise for people with injuries etc. I know it's not to everyone's taste (certainly not mine!) but it...

    Hi ladies Mary - congrats on the anniversary! We've just hit 20. Not sure where the last 20 years have gone! Jody - well done on the workouts - hope you get your tasks done. It's very satisfying ticking things off a list. Lisa - wow, sounds like you're really working hard on the bike at the...

    Hi everyone Jody - good to see you! Glad that the storm passed you by but yes, I've seen the Bahamas pictures. It's going to take a lot to recover from that. Sounds like you need to have a disc to go to on your first free day, one you can do without too much thinking about. Have you done the...

    Hi all Jody - keeping everything crossed for you. Hope the storm passes you by! And I hope you get good news on the smear test as well. No, DD's just been to Germany on holiday and she's off to uni in 2 weeks (in England, about a 4 hour drive away which I know is the equivalent of popping to...

    Hello Mary - the film was great. We really enjoyed it. I don't think anyone under the age of 40 would get it all though. There were things that went over my head that my DH knew! How's the return to work been? Jody - fingers crossed it doesn't get to you. Almost finished Week 3 of Mesocycle...

    Hello Jody - is that tubing down rapids or something? Have fun whatever it is! Are Brit accents attractive? Mary - What are the twins doing next? I'm sure you've told us, so apologies for forgetting! :rolleyes: Bank Holiday weekend here and the sun is shining all weekend for once (they're...

    Hi ladies Another week gone, not sure where ... Jody - I like those stacked sets workouts. Hope the physical was OK. :oops: Lisa - huge congrats on becoming a g-ma (!) Sounds like a lovely trip to the mountains. Can't believe your temps. Well done for learning to say no as well. You're making...

    Hello Jodie - I was genuinely shocked at what you reported someone saying. That is vile. I know there are loads of conspiracy nuts online but to actually say that out loud is unbelievable. On a lighter note, you must have been really tired on Sat morning! Did you drink what came out or realise...

    Hi all Mary - are you doing something with the twins for their 21st? Wow, that has gone quickly! Do they graduate this year? DH's triathlon sounds serious! Glad you enjoyed the zoo. Lisa - the humidity varies, it is very humid at the moment even though it's not that hot. Downstairs is fine...

    Hi all Jody - that trail looks great. Hope you've had a nice time with DD. Just one more disc of Meso 1 to go. I've enjoyed it but looking forward to a week off. Will probably get some yoga and light cardio in. Apart from that, it's pretty quiet round here. Haven't been doing very much really.

    Hi everyone Lisa - that's some serious road problems! Glad you've got some alternative routes to turn to. Yeah, the heat has been pretty awful here. Worse at night, makes it really hard to sleep. I had the fan going all night on Thursday which I never do. It's now dropped 10 degrees (C) and is...

    Something to Crow about

    Yoga teachers I've had say it's not about the upper body strength but the core. I find focusing on my core really helps. Hope you get back to it! :)

    Hi everyone! I'm back! We've been back a week actually but what with jetlag, washing, work, I just haven't had the energy to post. Oh and I also started STS! Please excuse lack of personals but I have read them all I promise! NY was fabulous from beginning to end. Everything went like...

    Hello ladies Lisa - you and Jody have some real wildlife adventures! Yes, it's suddenly warmed up here as well. We're supposed to get 31 tomorrow but mainland Europe is really bad. They're predicting 45 in parts of Spain today and it was over 30 degrees at 2am! Jody - what a great adventure...

    Hi all Another week gone and I kept meaning to post and forgetting! Lisa - I think altitude sickness would finish me off! That's great you've still got snow up there. Mary - have you picked up STS again yet? Jody - so what is Gator DD going to do now? Is she completely finished with uni...

    Hello Mary - hope the move went smoothly. Jody - we can't be on it every day. You're making progress anyway. That must have been tough without the a/c for a few days. Lisa - enjoy your stretching. The odd thing is that the garden is just as normal because May was pretty good. It's just June...

    Hello Mary - sorry to hear about the infection. Have you enjoyed doing yoga and pilates? That's not your usual kind of thing is it? Well done to DS! He's working in a zoo? Lisa - good news on health and learning to say no! Thanks for the update on DH - I remembered his work going a bit erratic...

    Hi all Lisa - I didn't realise DH was retired now, I must have missed a post. Almost British - fiddly means difficult and intricate - like trying fasten a bracelet with a small clasp or something. Mary - no, it was an hour per day! I think two hours would be too much for me now! Good luck to...
