spadetowngirl has a birthday coming up soon and is doing my head in to buy her a kettlebell or bells but they,re not the cheapest piece of equipment to buy for what will more than likely end up under the stairs after a few months. i have checked out a few sites for reports on their effectiveness,but has anyone on the site a)heard of them and b)if so used them, because until the missus approached me about them i was pretty much in the dark.

I have Captains of Crush grippers and they are good.

Kettlebells are old school weight training but will improve grip strength as well as arm/shoulder. By giving big lifts your trunk strength or related strength will increase too. They have been popularised by that Russian as that is all he had then.

If you live in an upstairs flat you will not be popular below.

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
