wasn't me, and what are trolls?

AndrewSmith

if it was me i would have been really clever about it and moved the letters around of my name and put up a picture of a giraffe. but i'm just not that imaginative.
Jj manipulation is good, i do it all the time.

haha first time someone has tried to ruffle me on the internet.

Jj

You all get ruffled in the end.
;o)



Smithy, if it is you (and strangely I doubt it] I shall be very disappointed. [looks sternly over spectacles]

[Deleted User]

am I missing something, where are the trolls posting ?

and I'll make sure I'm not wearing my cycle hat on Sunday.

Jj

Smithy - just been having some thoughts:

Six weeks' pain means you do need to go to the doc and get a referral to a physio. He/she may well refer you to a bone doc, but will certainly narrow down what's happening in there. But make an appointment tomorrow.

Also - how did you injure it? Was your neck involved?

Nick - trolls are in the Tri forum, probably waking up this morning with hangovers and feeling a bit stupid.

[Deleted User]

I had assumed it was some"one" playing jolly japes and suffering from a case of hijinks. Glad to see *they* have whittered away on their own with no one else rising to it.















....no it wasn't the me. The nerve of it.

Jj

It certainly didn't seem intelligent enough for you, Dodge.

nick - are you putting big nick's report on?? he seemed happy enough afterwards.

[Deleted User]

Yes I've got a hangover, and I always feel a bit stupid, but troll is a bit harsh, just after some pics of andy (in lycra?)

[Deleted User]

but then you do have an orange face, big spooky eyes, a round nose and bright orange hair....actually if you rub your hair do you get a wish?

[Deleted User]

well...yes if you must know

[Deleted User]

Ok...I've got a plan....give it a rub and wish for candy lycra pics

[Deleted User]

give what a rub??...Oh, my hair

[Deleted User]

you obviously need to rub harder. Give me a go...I have the nak

[Deleted User]

will send you the report instead Andy, did you get the picture from Austria ?

[Deleted User]

Picture? Of Andy?

[Deleted User]

It looks like all that rubbing might have produced something

[Deleted User]

Keep rubbing and something will happen eventually

[Deleted User]

hmmmm...but not always what you want to happen

candy ollier

yep thanks nick. i'm having problems with work email so if you send it to my home one, that will be just dandy. which i'm also having problems with. right, going out for a bike ride to see if my legs have started cooperating yet.

Jj

I was going to ask you Ironpeeps, actually. It's been a week now. Have you done nothing at all this week? Are you hurting? How does it feel?

Just interested. I'd hate to be a problem. I think.

candy ollier

feel fine, been lazy all week for the sake of it but i need to get a wriggle on for Florida

there's no reason your legs would hurt more than just doing a marathon, and indeed they don't.

candy ollier

sh*te. i reinstalled windows and i've got that shut-down virus thing again

Jj

ack.

How'd that happen?

...though I guess you can't answer that if you've shut down.

(

candy ollier

fixed it using the power of downloads

...about 10 more downlaods to download then i can go out on my bike.

Jj

I just downloaded a daughter who keeps whingeing that she can't run. Beat me in a sprint finish to her first mile.

And she just said: 'when can I teach you to ride a bike?'


see?

It IS a conspiracy.

AndrewSmith

Jj it started as a 'normal' muscle soreness the day after moving a load of timber and building the roof to my new gym,
but instead of subsiding over the next day of two it got worse so now i can't put my hand behind my back or lift anything above shouder height. bit of a pain when you're a roofer who works alone. well thats what it says on my cards
'the lone roofer'
my sisters idea.

[Deleted User]

have been told by mates not to do anything for 2 weeks because they know what I am like but I am going to OW swim tonight and then start again, have entered the relays so need to do some speed work and the hilly 1/2 so off to the hill reps.

Just been down to the Crewe and Nantwich tri to support a few people and had a massage to be getting along with so feel even better now.

candy ollier

i cycled a bit today. might start training lightly from tomorrow - i feel pretty rested now. but beer raddled. i think i can get a day pass next sunday so i might come to tld.
