Two insults on the same day? What have I done to you??Originally posted by northernladuk View Post
If you mean trying to learn to sit down to pee then I've been on that training for about 40 years and it's not going well. To be fair while standing at a urinal next to LadyMuck at an xmas do she admitted she was struggling with that bit as well.

No gym in the 5 star hotel? Must admit while away I normally walk around town until midnight seeing the sights or hit the gym (there aren't many sights in Ohio without a car).Originally posted by northernladuk View PostVery impressive. I'm in a hotel 3 nights a week and all I'm going to achieve at this rate is getting fat so really need to pull my finger out and make some use of my time. Keep telling myself once I've found my feet I'll do something but I'm a month in and still nothing.

I was chatting to Tarbera about what to do when staying away from home back in the day but I don't think attending the local swingers/BDSM club 3 days a week is going to work.Last edited by northernladuk; 21 September 2023, 08:50.

well it gave me an excuse to buy a new laptop - with student discount
Nice one. I started an OU course in 2009 to keep me out of the pub* whilst working away, 10 years later gained an MA. I miss it (but the wife doesn't).
* until 9:30pm.
