You 2 could drive up together and pick me up along the way! Or is anyone going to Scotland after? I was thinking about it but it's a v long way, which makes me less inclined to go...

holy cr*p. Just looked at the route planner and it says 2hrs 40 minutes. I know i will prob be a little quicker than that but hells teeth, may go up the night before. What time does it start again? Nicky, more than happy to pick you up, where do you live?
I'm like a goddamn Navy Seal and Olympic gold medalist wrapped in a f***ing suit of body armour. I'm f***ing elite.

I'm near the junction of the M6/M1, but you'd be coming up the M40 I guess, so I could meet you at services. Or I could just drive myself, as it's probably only an hour for me. Talk to Chet, as it's probably more feasible for you 2 to come up together, and if it fits that you can pick me up, great; if it doesn't, no problem. 
It starts at 9am btw

BTW, is there going to be a write-up from anyone? Or should it be a group effort?

I will do one, ASAP..... And hopefully I will be doing another at the backend of the year, hopefully you will be able to make that one
Have just made in roads today about hosting a Adult Gymnastics day, if that takes your fancy??

They babble into hand-held twit machines about that cool e-mail of the woman being bummed by a wolf. Their cool friend made it. He's an idiot too. Welcome to the age of stupidity, hail the rise of the idiots!"

"Don't get hung up on the stopwatch or times, or even weight lifted, think about technique, technique, technique and listening to your body. You will not perform better every session and that is set in stone. Test your self every month keep a written journal not just a forum, a place where you can keep personal notes that you can read to motivate yourself. Don't compare yourself to others when you are working out and likewise do not think that you are already fit as fcuk!!! As someone will always be in front and behind you, ultimate confidence in your abilities yes, but arrogance no, there is a fine line.
But most of all do the things you hate above the things you like or are good at, this will make you a better athlete. Save the things you like for recreational sessions. But ultimately enjoy it, even when you hate it! And finally remember the mind will always give in before the body!"
Here endeth the lesson.

Ooo yes! In fact, what would suit me nicely would be if you could do both on the same weekend, then I'd only have to make one trip!

Good Idea, that would suit most people I should think? I will look into the costing.

Thanks to everyone who attended it was a great day, and lots of improvement was seen, excellent effort by all.
Thanks again and hope to see you all again soon.
