Hello Mammals,
Well, there’s only one week left of the Feelgood Factor challenge and let me tell you that I’ve worked too hard to throw it away and will be continuing on with my gym activities and healthier eating. The only thing annoying me re the gym is the garb. I’m looking to extend my fitness wardrobe, but with very little success, let me tell you. All I want is some new shorts, you know, with that cotton jogging bottom material? Can I find them anywhere, can I buffalo, and I’m furious! The one’s I have at the mo have the built in pant arrangement, so I’m completely secure, unlike a certain preening queen in body pump the other day. I’ve already taken this individual to task in the changing room over, well, let’s just call it an incident. People can be so up themselves, even whilst in the buff and honestly this person has nothing to shout about. However, my friend got more than an eyeful when he popped out during a lunge. I just wanted to shout out like Gunter in Friends “Get the mouse back in the house”. I couldn’t as I was too busy laughing. He wears these awful tiny shorts, you know the kind that joggers are fond of, and if you catch them early in the morning on the way home (still squiffy from the previous night) the sight of the “jiggling” makes you sick. I mean to say that cheap support pants costs very little these days, GET IT SORTED!
You’d think, however, after nearly six weeks I would have got the hang of the shower temperature thing by now, but no. I’ll spare you the gory details, but I nearly lost the ability to father a child. Due to my extra curricular activities it was always going to be difficult, but at least I still had the ability, however fear not, I live to fight another day in the trouser department.
Body pump became literal yesterday again. A woman trumped and nearly took out the whole class. I nearly lost a foot as the vicious odour threw me off my balance and made me drop my weights. I don’t think she was happy with my enquiries to the folk around me and promptly walked out. Still, maybe that was karma for my misdemeanour a couple of weeks previously, but at least mine didn’t smell. It’s just disgusting. This is meant to be a civilised place for civilised people. Not some extension of the school gym hall. Take the fibre down a notch, sweetheart. That’s what I say.
On a slightly more serious note, the messages of encouragement and support keep coming in via the five thirty show’s website, which is really kind. I also got a huge number of compliments on my bum after last weeks boot camp feature. Also people at my shows have been very complimentary too. Other than a “friend” who last night said: “I’m glad I’ve seen you as you still look really heavy on TV, so it’s nice to see it’s working” Talk about a back handed compliment. This person would get on well with my Mother.
Last week of the Feelgood Factor challenge is on the five thirty show next Friday the 27th. And join me next Tuesday for my last blog. To be honest I’m going to suggest I keep it on, even though I HATE COMPUTERS. I’ve quite enjoyed sharing the pot pourri of delights that is my life with you.
Email in to thefivethirtyshow@stv.tv if you know where I can get those type of shorts, ta!!!
Have a low cal day,
Bruce.
