    I'm in Melbourne. :)

    That looks like a really cool movie! Was it? :)


    Melbourne, nice!

    my wife went without me a couple years ago when her brother was working on a movie in New Zealand.

    the movie was ok. i went over to his house with the impression that we were going to watch 310 To Yuma though.


    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks

    I'm out for the next couple of days. Don't worry, I'll be back next time boredom strikes me, like wednesday, when I'm back to work. muhahahahah!

    You're right about that.

    I might be on to something with this circuit training. It's pretty hard core as you go from one piece of equipment right to the next in a loop without any rest or stopping for about 45 mins. The whole time you're out of breath so it gives off a huge endorphin rush. Aside from the fatigue towards the end, it really is a lot like a drug. I find it stronger than a runners high.

    It's been about 14 months now since I started the fight so to speak.

    I've wasted so many memberships in the past. The say if you can stick it past 6 months it's for life (knock on wood). Thank god the gym is right across the street. Big plus.

    I have so much making up to do for my teenage and college years. Too much partying! Ohh... I shudder...

    I miss that "dolphin rush" :( Now it's just fatigue, fatigue and more bloody fatigue. :rolleyes: I wanna get a weights regime happening. Just to build up core muscle strength. Not so much with the stamina, figure that will come with time. But I'm missing the flexibility I had from dancing, although I never really got much upper body strength from it. On the plus side, it doesn't seem to take much for me to get that flexibility back once I've started again. I've checked out the circuit training, I think it would probably be too much for me, well to start with anyway, but I'm really keen to get started on a regular exercise regime again. I do a lot of walking but I really want to get back into dancing eventually. I'm thinking I'm going to start out with this really old book from the 60's. It's called

    Physical Fitness
    5BX 11 minute a day plan for men
    XBX 12 minute a day plan for women

    It was developed by the Royal Canadian Air Force.
    I've done it before and it's really good and simple.

    What I really need is a simple 20 minute weights program. I'm thinking I might get a personal trainer to start me off. I'm not really one for gyms. I can't control the temperature and I need to work at my own pace and not be getting in other people's way. :)

    But I reckon even if I start now, I'll never make up for the partying I did when I was younger! ;)

    How long did it take you before you started with the circuit training Roland? :)
    NOPE!!!

    Yeah, she's not a bad little town, Melbourne. :) Got pretty much everything you could possibly want without being too big. :)
    Kiwi is devine! That place is soooo beautiful! Especially around Queenstown and I don't even like snow that much! :)

    What movie was your brother in law working on?

    Oh I have to see 310 To Yuma! Chiqui insisted! :D
    NOPE!!!

    sounds nice! kind of sounds like where i live; it's not too big. actually, that's where the comparisons stop. there is nothing to do here.

    snow?! is that a frequent thing? that's cool...

    he was working on Superman Returns.

    yea, Mr. Crowe is in Yuma!

    Actually we've got a lot of different stuff. Sport, arts, theatre, festivals, beaches, parks and gardens. It'd be practically impossible not to find something to do here. :)

    We don't get snow in Melbourne. Well sometimes in the outer suburbs in the hills but it's pretty rare. Queenstown in NZ gets awesome snow. It's billed as the adventure capital of the world. :D And it's so pretty it's like standing on a movie set. Every where the view is so perfect it's surreal.

    I haven't seen Superman Returns all the way through yet. Normally those are the kind of movies I'd see at my brothers and these days by the time the kidlets are in bed I tend to nod off half way through the movie. :o

    Yeah, I think the reason Chiqui wants me to see 310 so much is because Rusty's in it. I think she likes him! ;) He's not really my cuppa but I do like a good western. :)
    NOPE!!!

    :D Where's it from, your Pinot? I'm more of a merlot girl meself. Well I love Cab Sav but I don't drink it so much these days. Mostly whites and light reds.

    I would pour meself one but it's only 4pm, a bit early and I'm still a little seedy from having tied one on Saturday night. I'll probably be having 30 or so alcohol free days in a row now. :)
    NOPE!!!

  • for leaving this thread so early last night, I remembered I had important stuff to do... it wasn't the plan; I'm gutted you all had so much apparent fun after I left.

    Never fear. I have more beer! Therefore we'll do it again; either tonight or another night...

    Watch this space.

    But this time I want EVERYONE FUN to be present. :D

    Is a piker the same thing as a pikey? I've only ever had one caravan holiday.
