DiS walking day.

Maybe those that are able to change their commuting routine to include more walking, and then we can start the day with a thread to discuss how it affected our journey to work

I think mid morning, once everyone is nicely settled in, can have a thread about our favourite multi day walks.

As the centrepiece of the day, we pick a time and all take a break to go for a half hour walk around your area. Take a photo of the best thing you see on your walk, then come back and we can have a lovely thread to share them all.

I see the afternoon as being a bit more freeform, and can discuss the favourite televised walks, shorter walks you’ve done, hey, anything goes.

I havent forgotten the music board either. Music board will have 2 walking day threads. One where we list songs about walking. A second thread will contain songs that are a good BPM to walk to.

What about if you walk both legs of your commute every day?

Sit, Stand, Lie Day

Working in teams of three, you have to make sure one of you is standing, one of you is sitting and the other is lying down. You have to alternate each time @hanshotfirst says so.

Hop?

Into this.

No thank you, I’m trying to cut down.

A very good question. Perhaps controversial for walking today, but I’d suggest that if you habitually walk to work, then on walking day you get there by alternative means. Then you’d be able to provide the opposite perspective during the commuting thread.

I’m strongly considering being one of those adults who spends a fucking fortune on Star Wars Lego so this sounds great!

There was a very brief period where I had to do this with a different type of fruit each Friday (provided by a colleague) and send a review round via email.

Nice one! I got my wee nephew a minor amount of Star Wars Lego for xmas (as well as a dinosaur set) but he also got a massive Fire Station and I spent all day building that for him, great stuff.

Do you have the BB-8 model yet? It’s amazing.

Sorry for the serious answer, but we should have a yearly charity day, where we pick something close to the heart of a DiSer and all do what we can to raise a few sheets for a good cause.

We should absolutely do that.

What happened to that idea where we would do a kind of scavenger hunt shopping trip thing for food banks @sadpunk ?

Wait… we were supposed to be doing joke answers?

(JB’s donkey thing, DD’s laptop one and CCB’s food bank would all be candidates for this I guess?)
