    At last! A subject I know a little about...
    In my extensive scientific research, most men who have worked in a place of employment for over 6 months have had a WW; the main reason why most women in the survey said that they haven't indulged (and this admission usually only comes out in the pub) is the poor state of cleanliness of the toilets. Apparently, some incence, mood lighting and scatter cushions might have made the difference.
    In one office, there was an interesting development, where there had been a "gentleman's agreement" to not use the nearest (unisex) WC for a WW: this, however, meant that if they were seen venturing further a field once in a while to use the facilities, everybody would suspect what they were up to, so everyone started always using more remote toilets as a smoke screen. This then meant that the nearest one stayed totally clean and started attracting mostly women from other parts of the office... amidst much speculation!

    Apparently, some people claim, work is too busy/stressful to contemplate such matters. Ironically, it is these people who might benefit most from... I think you know where I'm heading with this?

    Are we still in Pro Race?

    COMMENT FROM VINCENT

    "Vincent said: “ Sadly, Victoria is not a very positive person in general. When I first met her I said, “Bella, congratulations, you were amazing, you made me cry.” Can you believe how she responded? She said, “No I’m not, I’m rubbish!” I couldn’t believe my ears. I mean, darling, you are the best in the world… at cycling."

    i have a gaukish morbid interest in this :shock:

    She needs to manage and nurture her inner chimp :roll:

    And in lighter news, there's a dance competition and our gold medal winner did rather better than the week before.

    Thank goodness :)

    At one point, probably after she's been eliminated, she'll realise strictly is about them having fun and dancing as best they can, rather than about winning it...

    Those who get that inevitably do much better, both in scores from the judges and especially in the public vote.

    I'm surprised that she's got time to learn even half her steps what with all the other stuff she's doing at the moment - book signings, personal appearances, endless photo shoots.

    A shame about yesterday's elimination, yes his dancing skills weren't the best but I was hoping that the public were going to keep him in for a few weeks anyway.
    Would welcome company for Sat rides west/south of Edinburgh, up to 3 hrs, 16mph ish. Please PM me if interested/able to help.

    Out of interest, on what level where you pitching that post? What was the decision process that lead you to think it was a worthwhile contribution?

    It is fair comment because she introduced the subject of self harm by drawing attention to here own self harming in her book.

    I don't have to explain my decision process to you.

    Can't help thinking that Rule 43 is appropriate here.

    I agree but it must be hard to turn off the competitive nature that made you a world champion and Olympic champion just like that.

    Would be nice to see her enjoying it though..

    You want to get a hockey player on there. Thighs like heffalumps.

    Disclaimer: I do not watch this garbage.

    There is no way you can mention thighs like heffalumps (spot the Winnie the poo fan) without mentioning Claire Baldings, surely they set the standard ?
