A number of people including Him Indoors have suggested I join them in the pursuit of their faourite hobby. So far the list goes as follows: Smallbore target shooting - Are you out of your mind? The way I feel sometimes about my "customers" it can't be a good move to give me an accurate aim. Rowing - Possibly, since the last time I was at the gym the only machine I enjoyed was the rowing machine it is not totally insane as ideas go. Then again from what I remember of my Oxford days, it involves getting up early... maybe in a parallel universe where I am an early bird. Yoga - Not for me I am afraid. If I am going to bother with exercise it has to involve some sweating and feeling like I am working hard and you know those exercises of relaxation you are taught before exams and during pregnancy, well they never really worked for me, I was the one desperately trying to picture the stupid place and failing miserably. Pilates - As above, and I did 10 years of ballet as a child and hated it. My posture is fine thank you very much and I need a hobby that requires more brute force and ignorance than co-ordination. Now if somebody wanted to join me for walking around aimlessly in the local streets while chatting or listening to music in the evenings whatever the weather I would happily go for it.

(9.11.04 22:06) I'll join you on your walk, especially if you are listening to Leonard Cohen. |

Daisy / Website (10.11.04 11:25) How about working out with a punchbag at a local gym? :-)) |
