Sorry to hear about your friend I've been a gym goer for 30 years ( 5 times a week) so probably won't stop! I get a lot of it socially too....nice to have a chat there often and the atmosphere is great ...that part of my life is decent but I get what you are saying with the goal Might have a look at some goals!

I should add that I would NEVER have imagined I would get to 4 months and be thinking that's it forever ......if you'd have told me I'd have laughed It is possible for anyone to do but it's a trade off

I appreciate that mate - I doloads already (always done gym, sport and kids sports teams etc) It's not lack of stuff to do or challenge needed ....it's just that realization that I won't have that 'euphoria' of drinking again.....that sounds dramatic but it feels real It feels like everything is better with a drink Someone said something weird when I first stopped like 'if it's not as fun without alcohol then it can't have been that much fun anyway '......I don't agree with that....e.g. I watched the games yesterday and enjoyed them (especially the Saints loss) but it's not 'as' good Don't think there is an answer.....I guess it's a trade off....I feel maybe 25% better for 90% of the week now....but that other 10% (Saturdays and Sunday night) is probably 75% less fun I guess not dying early of liver disease will be more fun than dying of liver disease

Seeing this being built up on SKY Is it just me.or this a pointless idea? 1. A fourth format is the last thing that is needed in cricket. With the debate around the existing 3 formats and what emphasis should be put on each surely this is mad 2. I know all teams are made up but the teams seem stupid and particularly made up with weird combos like Root not playing at the Headingly based team 3. The Vitality Blast is really great....surely expanding that in length and exposure is better. Including some terrestrial coverage Sorry...just ranting as it seems so dumb as an idea ...also £55 for a shirt that is for what a few weeks of fixtures?

Not sure this is a good idea He may be cardio fit but the body needs time to acclimate to contact properly .....to do that in Super League seems risky Muscles can strengthen in a few weeks of training....however ligaments,bones and tendons are different....thet will have reduced in size / strength with no contact since retiring .....and they take a lot longer than a few weeks to develop again Hope I'm wrong but I suspect he'll be injured fairly quickly .....unless he just avoids making heavy tackles

Several months in now Occasional hard bits (Saturday day time and Sunday evenings the worst) The initial 2 months felt great Last 2 months a bit meh Main danger now is that the novelty has worn off ....

Not quite sure of your reasoning! I think Rhinos are in for a hiding

If Billy had been around now he would be a union superstar or even a footballer ...the circumstances of him going to league don't exist now (unfortunately ) You second point makes sense .....plenty of fans of the game knocking about on the other British countries even if they don't play Personally I like the idea that we tour as GB but play at home and tournament as England (so that the other nations provide the extra teams even if they are heritage) What chance that Luke Keary will get a look in if it's British and Irish Lions?

Surely originally GB existed to get the numerous Welsh players involved I have happy memories of GB tours and the odd shirt still....but the Welsh players that do now exist aren't good enough

I'm going 1-1 we win on penalties

Not the Humber but the card game Anyone played this before? How long does it take to learn? How long does a match take?

What does that cost a month? Imagine I wouldn't get as good a deal straight up but interesting to know what is possible with old subscribe then threaten to ditch ruse

Taught him all he knows?

I really like the cryptic crossword ! The Times one is too hard Have you any experience of cancelling the Times as an online sub? Thinking of that for my hols too

Totally agree on this Something some companies could take not of E.g I would be keen to get a prescription for the Telwgraph to read over holidays periods when I have time The cancellation process involves ringing a number that is rarely answered and is very difficult to do....will never subscrjbe again

Me too .. and there are a couple of league 2 friendlies being broadcast before Wednesday on YouTube They'd better not give away the result

Also interested who will be wearing an England rugby league shirt like my family will be!

My kids play soccer and this is the first tournament that has resonated with them We'll be watching the same as we all watched the RL game from Toulouse (in our England rugby league shirts!)

And the Macarena.....which is Spanish probably

Got to be better than hoof ball right?

That is happening more and more in NRL Maybe they've seen it in SL ! Shaun Lane's documentary of watching sport across Europe is good and it is the one thing he bangs on about at the end that is missing from NRL.....he even references how good it is at basketball games

I mean AI images are a bit passe now but i couldn't resist

Ha ha ....get Time Team out to Odsal top

Yes Hurst really seems passionate about engaging as many people as he can Think we'd all love to see Bulls get back to half the club/team they were

Big budget, full backing and had loads of time Not really surprising
