Yep write the book! I'm giggling here at work reading this.
Our most interesting neighbour is a white witch, who happens to be a goth motorbike rider. She is very nice, and has a black cat just like my molly. But she and her partner are moving out, so heaven knows who will be moving in next!
I have been making "motivational tools" I have a picture of "me" in my wallet now! I've made notices for the fridge and kitchen that say, "The answer is not in here!" - They actually say, "PSSST! Batman, the answer is not in here!" And I have "my" picture on my desktop background too!
I still think a plastic cast is the best way to get stand out abs
I'm swimming again tomorrow, and already looking forward to it, and I've signed up for Pilates again this week. Everyone wore bare feet except the instructor who had groovy green and black striped socks! I wouldn't be able to do it in socks, I would be slipping and sliding all over the place!
Well - I've just been shifting stuff around in the garage and I think there's room for some gym type stuff in there already even with a load of eBay stuff hanging off the walls. I've also used the DH's electric saw thingy to saw the bottom of the legs off of an old chunky coffee table and it makes a great bench - all I need now is help in getting the exercise bike downstairs and out through the garden. Now I've got more space I'm thinking about buying myself another rebounder - normal jogging really hurts the front of my legs (from the knee down to the ankle) but I used to really enjoy jogging on a rebounder.
Ooooh I wish I had my rebounder at home... I'd get spanked for having more "junk" lying around the house! Yes it's really great rebounding and I did it for a while when I was a teenager and was mightily impressed at how easy it made running in PE. However I never correlated the two at the time and got bored with my bouncing and got even fatter!
I'm really thinking I should get one... rebounder, rebounder, rebounder!
Ky - Your neighbour sounds great - shame about her moving.
My neighbours have got a 'for sale' board up outside their house as well. I doubt it'll come to anything - they've done this several times since we've lived here. The last time they did this was after a super-row (the one where he punched in the side window of her car WITH HIS BARE FIST). I doubt they'll have anyone come to look at it because its very overpriced and, even if they did, they won't want to buy it because (for some reason) they've chosen to do it out in pine cladding right through - then used yacht varnish on it which has gone very dark.
And, of course, you can't see much of the garden because of the ******* caravan!
I seen it! I think mine was about that price 10-ish years ago... God I sound old when I think of things, like I've been friends with the guy WHO ISN'T COMING TO THE WEDDING for 14 years... 14 years! I remember BEING 14! That's just crazy!
I might have to sneak a rebounder in... I will throw out some junk first so I have an excuse... Ah hah! Maybe I can make Saturday a tidying day... DF is on night shift with the plods. Not sure what time he starts, I think 7pm, but I can drink Pepsi to tidy into the night!
No - for it to be effective you HAVE to do the chucking out of stuff while he's there - so he can see how much you're getting rid of and so he can't then say you haven't got room for the rebounder.
Mine's in a great big heap on top of the table under the pergola thingy - EXACTLY in direct eyesight of where he sits to have his dinner.
I've found classes!! They do them at three points of my tram journey and about to start them in my village!!! So that will be Bellydancing on either Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, Pilates on Thursday, Yoga on Saturday!
If I'm not bendy after all that, I never will be.
I just want to do exercise where I can legitimately wear pretty shiny things!
Oooh, I'd LOVE to do belly dancing classes - there's nothing like that in boring old Norfolk .
I love my rebounder - its the Reebok one and it cost me £50 from boots online - it was more expensive than some of the others but it's worth every penny. God only knows what the neighbours think when I bounce around for 50 minutes at a time just after dinner - they must think we use food as an aphrodisiac and have really squeaky bed springs!
I have a picture of "me" in my wallet now! I've made notices for the fridge and kitchen that say, "The answer is not in here!" - They actually say, "PSSST! Batman, the answer is not in here!" 
And I have "my" picture on my desktop background too!
