Nutty, can I ask two questions


What sort of pace/distance are you running at currently?

Assuming we are of a similar pace (Se my runs here


Would you want a training partner for some of your runs?

Maybe we need to create a special forum wave for when running so potentially unable to say "do you post?!" ??


Have also realised that the 3 of you I spoke to yesterday - I didn't ask what you're names on here were so still not sure who I met.... not doing 3 consecutive nights out for my birthday next year - realising brain can't handle it!!!

Buggie - we had realised the same thing as you walked back from the cafe but didn't get to meet again - citizened was the gentleman reclining on the ground, his partner in the deck chair beside him (a lurker on here) and I was the white haired loon in the other deckchair

Eric - you are way out of my running league!


Thanks for the offer but:

a) I'm only running between 5-10k a session as it's part of a triathlon training (so quite often do 20-40k on a bike first then run)

b) The triathlon I've been working toward is this weekend so training will be much less often afterwards

c) I hate running, maybe because I weigh so much it hurts! (so re (b) unlikely to do so much running in the schedule post-tri)

d) I have a baby due in September so suspect all training may go out of the window to make time for sleeping :)


Again thanks for the offer, I suspect there are a few more accomplished runners on here who may join you if you start a dedicated post....


I like the sound of this wave - any ideas anyone?

I can go slower!!!



> Thanks for the offer but:

OK, no problem, didn;t know was that close. I'd like to do a tri, but swimming skills are non-existant. Having lessons so i can do a descent pace are on my "To Do" list.

I run with Dulwich Park Runners (Beginners lessons starting soon - Watch that website) , so run with the fast peeps quite regular, but am always looking for others to run with, it just make the runs more enjoyable, even if you don't chat much.

      Do you mean they are chopping branches from trees in your garden? I would definitely get advice on that eg from the neighbourhood police. I'm not familiar with the law, but that sounds like trespass to me, even if they are not actually standing in your garden. People are entitled to chop off branches etc which are overhanging their own garden, but I am pretty sure they are  not allowed to lean over and chop off anything in yours, whether they dislike it or not.

      Greg has done several jobs for me over the last year or so. He is quick, efficient, reliable and tidy. Prices are reasonable and he is very easy to deal with - really nice man!

      Greg is a massively skilled, talented, meticulous, careful and lovely man who can turn his hand to anything and make it beautiful. He's decorated many rooms in our formerly tatty old house, fitted a beautiful (and very complicated) bathroom, and taken on some fairly serious building jobs including structural ones implementing an engineer's design. He solves problems, works openly and collaboratively on plans, and his standards are impeccable. He's also a lovely guy to have around. I'd have him back and recommend him to anyone, with no hesitation.  By way of further testimonial, he's ended up doing work for half our street through neighbour recommendations and EVERYONE who has used his services is delighted.
