Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Hey @TAB thats pretty cool dude. I have put off exercising mainly due to chronic fatigue syndrome but sounds as if you have full throttle. Keep doing it! I love the sms messages I get from the Heart Foundation to keep me motivated. Recently i was able to discover an obscure health regimen that made my fatigue a lot less so here I am recovering and exercising most days. If you can do more than 30 minutes then you are doing well. It will keep you healthy and ahead of your game

not happening here @Shaz51 pulled out a few handfuls of weeds earlier in week lol

I used to exercise a lot more including walking, had health scare recently , need to get on top of things Thanks @Former-Member well did 90 mins yest and 60 today after a few days off did 60 mins like 3-4 times , after struggling with 30mins a month ago, its comfortable now and just zone out so its going okay

@Shaz51 I have an Australian Indigenous garden full of native trees and flowers/grasses. I love sitting on my patio taking it all in. I have a huge pink banksia out the front that birds love sucking nectar from. Its nice watching the birdlife. I am not far from a national park so we get lots of cockatoos and rosellas. I've got to remember to buy more birdseed for wild birds. I have been feeding just the suburban birds with scraps which they love. Have you thought of laying down mulch? It stops weeds so you do less work in the garden. Sometimes tree loppers have a dumping ground for all their tree mulch that comes from trees they have chopped down. Its usually free.

yeah got sms from heart foundation today freaked me out a bit, didnt say who it was from lol @Former-Member

lol the Hart foundation from WWF 1990s think lol @Former-Member

Ah thats no good about the health scare @TAB I think its things like this that get us motivated though! I'm sorry to hear that. My father when he was alive had heart disease and had to have an operation. Following the op he folowed all the OT advice and was able to walk long distances! My Dad was pretty amazing - he had gigantic willpower - he used to be in the British Air Force if that means anything but my Dad had so much strength that nothing would stop him. It was quite amazing he would leave most people dead really. My Dad died many ago its sems like yesterday but its hard to live up to someone like that. I was very close to him. Miss him heaps

I had a book in 1980s about a Sth african who had a major heart attack then went on to walking up the stairs in Empire State building I should look a bit harder , couldntfind it last time @Former-Member

My father has heart failure he's 96 years old though. He was in German army on Russian front in World War 2 cant say was ever close to him, except for trying to impress him sometimes

good idea about the mulch @Former-Member , will have to get some

love the sound of your garden , very relaxing

I must admit I use to love the WWF so funny @TAB even if it was theatrics! I was at university when the WWF was on TV, and used to watch it during study breaks. Really it was a funny show. Ricky Steamboat and I think Hulk Hogan it was and Jesse Ventura. I heard Jesse Ventura is now doing an alternate news program out of Asia somewhere. Don't know what the other ones were doing but hey it was an entertaining show

Its cut my gardening time by half. Theres hardly any weeds in my garden thanks to mulch Its worth looking into. I don't know why I put it off!
