I’ve been living in these tops which would be perfect for smuggling extra hand luggage/helmets

Oh yeah going for a swim/twatting about in the sea for a bit is a given.

I enjoy it as a once a year or so thing because I don’t often find/make the time to read books so that’s my time to do it.

tbh until about 2 years ago I’d have considered that a tedious proposition as well but now I’ve got a more stressful/responsible job and that I’ve found it time/money VERY well spent.

Right, I’m flying to London and walking your bloody commute!

a security guard recently asked me what i was hiding under my jumper

it was just my belly :sob:

Should’ve said you were just pleased to see him. And then got punched.

Other - it’d be good for a few days but I 'd get bored and go into the city or something.

was doing a 5 hour a day commute to a low paid job in berkshire a little while back :gun: thankfully only for a week

This is what we did for 5 days in Sciliy exept it was more like

7am - wake up
8-9am - breakfast
9- 10am - lay about in the room
10am - lay on the beach / do a big hike
11:30am - get hungry
12 - 2pm food
2-5pm - lay on the beach more
5pm - prosecco in the hot tub
7pm - out for aperitivo
9pm - dinner
10pm - BED

Yeah we were doing half-board or whatever it’s called so the strategy was to max out the breakfast buffet so we wouldn’t need to eat until dinner. Boom.

Hello Eric, I’d like to state on the record that I walk six miles a day for my journey to and from work. Thank you.

you walk 12 miles every day? :open_mouth: if that’s true i will personally take my hat off to you and eat it.

See I don’t understand that.

We maxed out the breakfast buffet each day but were still hungry by lunch time. I also had to have a mid afternoon aranchini each day!!
Same with @anon5266188 and his sandwich yesterday night cause he had a big lunch. Makes no sense to me? I’d still be starving!

Spent 5 odd hours of my commuting for a couple of years, so 4 sounds like a breeze.

I was only in the office 10 til half 3 most days though and spent a couple hours working on the train though, I couldn’t do it if it involved being in the office from 9 til 5.

No, six miles total. Whilst it isn’t as far as the length you’ve described, I still think I would take that walk on if the alternative was that long on a bus every day.

Your body obviously tells you it needs more food, more regularly than mine.

Think when I went to Spain a couple of years ago we did 3 days straight on eating lunch (a big lunch like a massive paella or something) and nothing else.

My eating patterns and habits are bad. I regularly get to like 1500 on a Saturday and realise I haven’t eaten and will then eat a disgusting amount of unhealthy food to make up for it. On the other hand I can also have days where I’ll boredom eat at 45 minute intervals for an entire day.

I’m like this - no routine or balance, just massive splurges or constant grazing.

Sounds stressful and confusing and I am very grateful my bf is as much of a pig as I am.
I think i’d crumble if I went on holiday with someone who just wanted to eat half of the day. I want to eat for the entire day.

I’m neither stressed nor confused by it, so don’t worry. You go to the gym loads and your fella plays golf all the time right? There’s your answer as to why your metabolism is quicker than mine.

Also I’m in my mid 30s now and I don’t really do any exercise outside of walking. Therefore I need to be careful about what I eat. We live and die by our choices, as with anything.
