Rugster Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I as in the same boat pretty much up until recently. The first week I played I was moving around the court not bad at all. I was fucking wrecked right enough but I got through it. I drove home and had a bath in dettol to help the muscles. And sat down with a cup of tea and felt my hamstrings tighte. I tried to stand up and basically couldnt It took an entire weeks worth of stretching to free them up a bit. I played the following week but I was virtually immobile. I couldn't push off to go forward and my pelvis was sore which made it hard to move side to side. It does get better though. I'm probably 80% fit now compared to my younger days and each week I get stronger and faster. I should really get myself back into shape. Then whip your ass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugster Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Why not. I'm in no fit state right now, but I'll bear it in mind! I do intend to sort the fitness out very shortly! Badminton, now there's another belter of a game! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 39 soon as well so no doubt I'll be one of those mid life crisis squash death statistics soon enough. Havent played badminton in ages. I used to enjoy all that sort of thing as well. When I was younger I would play squash and then go straight out and play five a sides with the boys and think nothing of it Them were the days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwififer Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) Auckland has it's annual boobs on bikes parade this weekend, so we get to see porn stars and lap dancers all drive down Queen Street on the back on Harley's and such like... Except a group of Christians/women's groups have tried to block it, and are now being allowed to have a counter demonstration. It's anti-female and against the family according to them. 50% of the world have tits, and the other 50% like looking at them. What's the big deal? Edited to add, they're all naked on the bikes.

HGG Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) "Thought he farted, but shit himself". Followed a muck cart and thought it was a wedding. And the rain's come on :crying: Didn't you post the previous day saying it was raining when you rode home and you loved it? I think HGG's wee laddie is called Scott, but I'd like to make it clear that it wasn't her. Well remembered! No, it wasn't me. I was a couple of hundred miles away watching my Scott climb on things with his two older siblings, avoiding all wasps! I'll join the wasp hating brigade though - one terrified Scott last week when it flew nearby. He appeared to be stung or bitten by something shortly after that and I never got to the bottom of it but now he's terrified of anything insect-like. He saw some bits floating near him in the bath earlier and got really worried, shaking, pointing and shouting "aaaaaargh aaaaaarh - MUMMYYYYYYYYYYYY! That! That!". Thankfully he has no idea how scared of wasps I am myself. My six year old son, is fabulous with buzzy flying things. The school he used to go to kept bees and I think I've posted on here before that he used to drop such lines as "but we couldn't use that cupboard because Uncle Jeff's [headmaster's] bees had got in there and there were some dead ones at the bottom" into things he was telling me about his school day from time to time. On holiday with my parents a couple of weeks ago my dad was constantly calling for Sam because there were bees and my dad was too scared to deal with it himself. :lol: Edited August 20, 2008 by HGG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
