Anyone a member of a David Lloyd gym?

[Churchill]

When I lost my free membership, they suggested that I buy a "social" membership so that I could keep going to the bar there. I told them exactly what they could do with their social membership.

Anyway - I thought you were leaving the country, or did I miss something?

That's rather unsociable, don't you think?

So do lots of people but doesn't stop them running, cycling or swimming in outdoor pool (there is one in Hampton) regularly.

Plus if you join a club of like minded people you can exercise and get p!ssed afterwards. In fact the more sports clubs I join the more alcohol I drink so maybe going to a gym is cheaper, but it is much less fun.

I actually spend more time in the bar and spa than I do in the gym. I can’t exercise in the evenings but Mrs Jog does. I get my Saturday morning 10k run in every week and try and go in the mornings but that doesn’t really happen much when I’m in a gig. When benched I’m there 3-4-times a week.

Outdoor pool at Hampton? I must have missed it?! How odd I’ve been going 5 years as well!

You missed Australia introducing a 3 year waiting time for skilled migration visas

I looked at migrating to Canada a while back, and they have a 2 year waiting time for the visa. On the plus side, though - you don't need a job offer to get one, they are much more relaxed about letting you in, and it's a doddle to get citizenship if that's what you want longer term.

Bit cold in Canada!

Plus, my brother's in Australia and I'd like to be in the same country

Having used the Reading DL for a number of years, it's as good as any other. I've used all the facilities apart from classes.

They can be a bit anal about parking there though...

Not at Amida, it's on the main road between the river & Hampton Hill.

Aah yes - the open air pool by Bushy park - still never been!

Great skiing in Canada!

Australia has too many things that can kill you, and is too far away - the thought of having to tell my parents and in-laws that I'm taking their grandchildren half-way round the world is not something I would relish.

Just get yourself one of those Oracle parking passes Or IIRC they don't check at all in the Xansa car park - free Reading park and ride, anyone?

Easily solved. Tell them you’ll be going too.
