I find slow, laid back music best for working out. Every time I put on a fast, rocking track I feel the urge to go faster and harder and have powered myself out after five minutes.
The Rocky soundtrack is a pretty good compromise on that matter though!

:twisted: Only if you finish your workout by punching both hands in the air and shouting "DRAGO, DRAGO" at the top of your voice in a dramatic fashion, no matter who else is in the gym at the same time :yep: .


One song I used on a regular basis in the gym was Smoke On The Water, on the rowing machine :lol:

[AndyK]

I find it easier not to go to the gym, makes the choice of what to listen to far less complicated.

[Evil One]

I believe Mr K is spot on. :twisted:

[AndyK]

With the stuff that's going on in my head... that probably wouldnt be a good idea lol



besides, the one starting tomorrow is a 13 year old girl... who's also the daughter of one of our bosses. So I gotta be REALLY careful what I say or do lol

[Evil One]

DO NOT teach her everything you know! :yikes:

[The Flying Mouse]

looks like meet and greets are still available for belfast


however...

thats looks like a great day out :D

[duke knooby]

REALLY ~~~~ED OFF WITH MYSELF

never seen the speed camera van there before... and didn't spot it till it was way WAY too late!!!

6 points or a ban??? can't wait for this letter to come through the door

:(

[LucyK!]

6 points or a ban?! How fast were you going! :shock:

[duke knooby]

6 points or a ban?! How fast were you going! :shock:

i'll let you know when the letter arrives


i still say the van should never have been there, as its not a designated site... or else should have had signs up


(looks like the insurance goes up about 100 quid for every 3 points)

[duke knooby]

thats if it even was a camera van... it was that well marked

[duke knooby]

i see a summons brewing :(

[LucyK!]

You sure it was a speed van rather than a tax-checker van?

[Sue K]

I live in an "unfortunate" section of the city known as Kensington and now we have The Kensington Strangler prowling about ! He's raped and strangled two woman and attempted to strangle two more since around May ! And we didn't see "seriel" here ? Of course not. We're "unfortunates" ... :evil: ...

[duke knooby]

there'll be no glory train for me this time

[duke knooby]

You sure it was a speed van rather than a tax-checker van?

not 100% sure, i reckon twas speed van though... maybe it was a trial for a new location

but really really want it to be a tax one

I have a really bad motivation problem with my thesis.. I don't want to do it but I have to do it.. :wall:

I know my subject and I already have 17 pages. The subject is: Foundation of preservation area.

I don't know what to write or how much I supposed to write.. My teacher/tutor doesn't have time to advise me because she is really busy.. :shrug: What can I do? I'm stuck with the subject.. :(

[duke knooby]

changing contact details manually from an 11 old sim card is very boring and time consuming

moral of the story is, not to have 4 or 5 different phone numbers for most people

(or to learn a quick and easy way of transfering them)

RJ they were amazing! They get better and better every time! Really can't speak highly enough of those guys :up:

Fantastic! 2 hours of high energy, high volume New Jersey Rock and Roll.

Despite the best efforts of their sound engineers they sounded awesome!

[Sue K]

A rhetorical question, maybe ? Why do I need to know anything about David Hasselhoff and his family ? He comes with some much bad baggage from drunken phone calls posted on the internet and such. He should talk networks into a remake of Knight Rider and stay away from the reality show he's about to be shown in. I hear a last hurrah !

[allrevvedup]

The radio show won't be online tonight, but it's on 92.5 Phoenix FM here in Dublin at 10pm

I hope to have some audio and video from it soon though.

oh yes i have the same problem with my thesis which is about the traffic companies' financing, i have 66 pages at the moment and i think i finished it but my tutors can find out something for me :? the worst thing is that i have to take it to the college when i'll be in Birmingham for Meat's show but i'll find the way to work both out :D

[LucyK!]

This time next week we'll be waiting for Meat to come on stage...Meat fear is really kicking in now!!!

you're definitely getting quicker, Michael. This one only took you three hours to think up! :-P

[Sue K]

I am SO proud of my fellow Americans ! I've not a clue if the tv show Dancing With The Stars is seen world-wide, but if so, I guess I'm proud of the citizens of the world ! Sarah Palin's daughter did NOT win the grand prize !!! I really thought Mama Bear Palin had all her Mama Grizzlies and Pitbulls with lipstick voting over and over keeping the kid in, but... JUSTICE WON OVER !!! and Jennifer and hotcha Derek took the prize !!! YAY FOR THEM AND ME ! (it's the only "reality" type show I watch and having to see Mama Bear in the audience week after week was ruining it a bit for me, but a beautiful waltz by Jennifer Grey and Derek could always perk me up ... awww ... just gorgeous ! )

[allrevvedup]

Three times in the past week I've had to go from Dublin to Kildare for Jury service and three times I haven't been selected.

At least it's over and done with now.

[Evil One]

Three times this week I have waited in for Orange to sort there ~~~~ up out, and three times I have been disappointed.

[allrevvedup]

Three times this week I have waited in for Orange to sort there ~~~~ up out, and three times I have been disappointed.

so that's Orange and Jury services that are rubbish then? or just Orange Jury services maybe?:shock:

[Evil One]

I wrote this on the Rockman on Tuesday:I thought some of you may enjoy a chuckle at my misfortune...

Things started off wonderfully well: my contract was up and Orange offered me a much cheaper tariff and a brand new, shiny Nokia N8. Sadly it's all downhill from there.

I received my shiny new N8 earlier on today, complete with new sim card and other assorted bollocks. I registered the sim as you do and then put it in the little black cartridge and stuck it in the phone. It turns out that this was a major error on my part, and it was incredibly stupid of me to insert the new sim card SUPPLIED BY ORANGE into my new phone. I waited a couple of hours and still my phone was offline. I tried various things and then randomly tried to take out the sim card. It would not come out! It turns out that the new micro sim supplied to me BY ORANGE was not designed for the Nokia N8 and it was now stuck.

After I spent the best part of an hour on the phone to Raj and his friends in India it turns out Orange made a booboo and put the wrong sim in the box. I have to wait until Thursday for them to send me a new one out by courier.

The best bit is that I am now without a working phone. They can't re-register my old sim card for some insane reason and the new one supplied won't work in any of my old phones.

If anyone else finds themselves in this mess; the answer is yes, you can get the sim card back out with some tweezers, but you have to be bloody careful!
Followed by this yesterday:Last night I had a good idea! While the micro sim wouldn't work in my new Nokia N8 it did work in my old Nokia N85, so I wasn't totally without a phone. I had to go out this morning, but I made sure there was someone in the house to take delivery of the new sim being couriered out by Orange. It turns out this was a BIG MISTAKE. Mr Indian call centre yesterday 'helpfully' forgot to tell me that the courier would also be picking up the micro sim and wouldn't drop off the new one without doing so.

After another 45 minutes spent on the phone with Orange I now have to wait in tomorrow morning for another sim to be sent out. I was also told that I'm not the only one to suffer this fate and they've sent out many phones with the wrong sim! I did manage to get a month's worth of stuff knocked off my bill though, so it wasn't a total bollock.

From the last couple of days I have deduced that Orange is not what it used to be!

And here is todays update, exclusive to MLUKFC!

The new sim card was delivered this morning, and now I've discovered that the phone doesn't work! Orange will replace it for me but there is one slight problem with that: They are out of stock and won't be getting any more in for at least two weeks. :wall: They have kindly decided to lend me a Nokia X6 in the mean time which is actually worse than the phone I already have, so it will sit unopened in it's box ready to go back.

I now have to wait around yet again tomorrow for the random appearance of the courier. :kickass:

I find it crazy I can't sell a spare Meat Loaf concert ticket (4th row) for more than £35. Considering the tickets originally cost £66 this has me worried what the turn out will be like on this tour. :-(

I find it crazy I can't sell a spare Meat Loaf concert ticket (4th row) for more than £35.

I think turn out will be absolutely fine, I would have thought your problem is trying to sell single tickets as most people want two...

[AndrewG]

I think turn out will be absolutely fine, I would have thought your problem is trying to sell single tickets as most people want two...

Saw two tickets on eBay go for £72. There's hardly any difference. :?

[LucyK!]

But were they seats in the first few rows of the front blocks like yours are?

[duke knooby]

whys it say £49 inc bookin fee on the ticket, but charged 49 plus booking fee through ticketmaster??

[LucyK!]

On the topic of trying to sell single tickets, good luck to whoever it is selling one third row Wembley ticket with a Buy It Now of £1000! :shock:

[Evil One]

Because the £49 includes the venue's booking fee, but not Ticketmaster's? :shrug:

[Pudding]

And you pay the venue again to park your car...EVERYBODY wants a piece of pie.

[Evil One]

At £49+ that is one huge mother~~~~er of a pie! :shock:

Rest in peace, Leslie Nielsen and thank you. You made me laugh. I'd laugh to tears even at some ads for your films... lol ... You're missed already.

However, my FIRST thought for today was for all those heading to 'Imself's show today to have safe travels. I heard about the snow and wish you all well. No need to say to enjoy the show as I'm sure all will ! I look forward to hearing grand reviews !

[samurai7]

bloody hell. As per usual, people let me down at the last minute, and I'm stuck with spare tickets! :mad:
Next time everyone can sort their own out, I'm just buying mine!!!

I could just about manage the tamborine. ;)

I'm not good with musical instruments. In fact when I was at school they didn't want me playing the recorder because I was so bad at it.

In a school pagent I played finger cymbals for the song The Little Drummer Boy and every time I hear it and that sweet little sound, it takes me back in time ... :D ...

If it were a Wario poll it would be about which instrument you would rather be. ;-)

:twisted: And what you would be wearing as you were played.

In fact, looking into the crystal ball I got off e bay, I can see that after a series of polls on the subject, Wario would be..............

A banjolele, wearing a day glow orange lycra sheath and purple neck studs, played by an orangatang in a gimp mask and assless golfing pants, and the song would be Come Fly With Me.

I've been on this forum for too long :wtf:

Personally I've always thought of Wario as a plucker :D

I'll be Patti's mic.

[duke knooby]

whats easier to learn??? guitar or banjo?

[AndrewG]

whats easier to learn??? guitar or banjo?

No idea. Guitar isn't too difficult just the basics. Banjo looks difficult to me as it is so small, having to have your fingers so screwed up and bridging multiple strings straight away.

[duke knooby]

might have a go at guitar then lol

[Monstro]

Where'd everyone go then?

[AndrewG]

I'm still here. I should be in bed. You at Birmingham tomorrow?? Or today I should say.

No, Anji's there with Emma, I've got babysitting duties lol

[MissAsh]

Turns out that it's far more difficult than you'd think to take a photo of the back of your own neck! Really love my new tattoo though.

[Battybarb]

I'm sorry to hear that :( I hope you get it figured out soon !

[Sarge]

Fortunately I'm used to walking long distances. Otherwise I probably would have been stuck in the city with public transportation being canceled and no cabs available. Walking on extremely slippery roads in freezing rain is fun, LOL.

[duke knooby]

~~~~ it

[Sarge]

Brrr... it's cold... and the snow is really piling up outside... :yodel:
Interesting to see how much humans depend on their modern technology and how vulnerable that technology is. Some snow and rain and we're almost back in the 19th century... unfortunately without horse-drawn carriages.

[Sue K]

It's unseasonably cold in PhillyTown, but in continuing to try my best to remain positive about life ... lol ... I'm lucky to be alive to feel it ... I guess... :lol: ...

[GDW]

I feel it all the time.:D

[Steve6]

The ice better clear soon. I can't walk in it and driving is just dangerous. More snow coming next week I believe.

[AndyK]

Don't like being closer to the end than the beginning.

[Vickip]

As they say, time flies when you're having fun :(

[Vickip]

I'm having surgury on my right eye on January 5th ... but hopefully it won't interfere with me going to the concert in Dover on January 21st !

Best wishes on your surgery and give it the time to recover, then rock that renewed right eye Jan. 21.

Quite possibly :-)

[The Flying Mouse]

:twisted: Dazed, tired, but happy.
Sorry it's over for this tour though :sad:

[Sue K]

It's warmed up at bit outside. I didn't need to bundle to the teeth in order to take the mootch out for her morning constitutional... lol ... and that's a good thing. I have some erranding to do today and would hate to be doing it in bitter cold (bussing about; no car).

[Battybarb]

cant drink too much tonight ( sigh ) early start in the morning

[sexyeyes_jo]

its a shame the tour is over for me but manchester was fantastic it is even better in the front row i think i went death when the concert finished lol

[Sue K]

I got all erranding out of the way yesterday, so aside from making a nice roast beef dinner, I think the day should pretty much belong to ... ME ! ... lol ... :D ...

Speaking of candles, why can't I find any bayberry candles in stores ? It's Christmas-time, for Loaf sake ! It was tradition in my family to light a bayberry candle Christmas Eve and let it burn until it was gone. It was for luck, so I'm told and ... lol ... WHO DON'T NEED THAT ? ... lol ... Oh, well, I'll continue my search.

[MissAsh]

Meet and greet was awesome!!!!!

Did you get hit and called a f-wit again? :lol:

Hopefully I will remember to actually breathe during my m&g this time! Looking forward to tonight so very much.

[duke knooby]

[duke knooby]

twas a scary drive home in the snow...

[duke knooby]

(unlike me other car which i haven't even tried to move since late nov)

[duke knooby]

my heads as messed up as that cars wiring... twas the wrong thread

rear wiper is now working, altenator light comes on with a flick wipe, and a relay buzzes on front wipers... but no wipers

i give up

[AndrewG]

but its still awesome in snow :D

(unlike me other car which i haven't even tried to move since late nov)

Hadn't used the mx5 in weeks. Tried to start it on Thursday and was no prob. Definitely thought battery would be flat by then but there you go

[meat_loaf]

gutted i missed meat on this tour... Never going to trust anyone again... :-(

[Sue K]

Leave it alone, tink ... ;) ...

[duke knooby]

that was the most frightening drive home from work i've ever made...

and i've been driving that road a long long long time
(but never in that car in snow)

[duke knooby]

(but never in that car in snow)

i think that was the problem....

took the 106 over the last part of the journey, and it behaved perfectly (apart from the electrics)

[Betty]

happy thought: only 4,5 days left (hopefully)

[duke knooby]

msns as empty as an empty bucket with a hole in it these days

i blame facebook... or the hole

[Sue K]

An observation made to help us Americans understand the severity of the winter weather in Europe ~ the story actually made my local news this morning ... :shock: ... lol ...

PS ~ Whoever here said the Santa hat on the "shock" icon doesn't get the point over properly is correct. It looks sleepy ... lol ...

[MeatGrl1]

Wonders if Meat, Patti and Co will be able to fly home for Christmas.. So far flights are looking shit :( !!

Also wonder if my dad and brother will be able to make it home, dad's coming from Hungrey I think where he was working and my brother from Sheffield, not having them here on Christmas day isn't an option, please let the weather hold up :pray: !!!

[Sue K]

I'm listening to BBC World News and it sounds very bad for traveling home for Christmas over there ... :( ... Fingers are crossed !

[Evil One]

~~~~ me! It's just hit -15 outside! :shock:

[AndrewG]

There won't be much ~~~~ going on outside with those temperatures.

[daveake]

Even the brass monkeys are wearing willy warmers.

[Evil One]

Why don't Cadbury's make a bar similar to the Strawberry Dream from a tin of Roses? :??:

[duke knooby]

my feet are cold

[AndrewG]

If I see an Easyjet employee this evening, there is a good chance a lynching is going to happen.

What will 2011 bring, will it be any better than 2010?

Excellent :)) I've always wanted to see him live .. it should be a great show !!

Mom and I bumped our cars in the parking lot at the store ... no damage to either car (at least that we could see in the dark :lol:) and nobody was hurt. Just the way to end a crazy day !!

[Sue K]

Oh, wow, Mark ! I'm thrilled for you. You'll have a blast, I'm sure ! I saw Garth back in late 90s. He's alot of fun and the audience is great, too ! I saw a clip on YouTube from last Thursday's 2nd show and he's sounding great ! I look forward to you coming back here and telling us all about it. Enjoy !!! ... xo
