@Tea_drinker would have caught it, benched it for 12 reps and then thrown it back into orbit

How quick do you think people's fitness regresses exactly?

In fairness, it can regress surprisingly quickly, I can vouch for that myself.

This was me in March just before lockdown


And this was me this morning after 4 months of no gym

Another industry destroyed then, more jobs lost, more people getting physically and mentally Ill.

Plenty of ways to keep fit without paying a lot of money to a trendy keep fit parlour.

Right. So no one has any excuse for being overweight then.

Exactly! Over-eating and drinking plus lack of exercise leads to obesity.

(OK a few people have genetic or hormone problems which cause it.... but the big majority don't)

Well according to you working out without a gym just doesn't cut it so maybe there is an excuse

I just love food me.

Pubs open though.

Large Somali / Muslim community, plus only one pub ( on Lodge Lane ) which I don’t believe is frequented by the Somali community.

"second" wave time.

 

[Number_25]

I'm part of the UK BIobanking efforts to track and trace Coronavirus both here in Wales and across large parts of England.

This nonsense about a second wave coming from the BAME community is complete and utter nonsense. From a snapshot POV of recent cases and their associated metadata - most biosamples collected from both testing and hospital submissions are from "older" (40+) white people.

Whenever I have the misfortune of traveling up, across and down Wales via public transport, those that aren't wearing masks aren't young BAME people - they are older men and women that take issue at the conductor for asking them about facemasks.

It's almost like people haven't been out partying for weeks.

Should we be blaming any groups. I've seen young and old not wearing masks. I've seen young and old who won't go out. Its a mixture

I like the word down.

Unless the word Everton comes before it of course
