@Angus
How are you? You feeling ok mate?
Just literally seen your reply from yesterday down the pages
Not sure what my Covid infection had to do with BB post or logic mate as you put it?
BB4 was asking me a personal question because I had posted just over a week ago I was feeling rubbish with Covid how you could turn that into something else or why you would want too I'm not sure bud maybe just chill a bit? and stop trying to jump into everything with both feet?
BB as you say mate back at work out the house and seems to always take a while to get over this stupid virus I have this weekend off which I may treat myself to a few malts and see if that kicks it into touch ??.

Stick with the toddy's stiggy boy? gd your feeling better mate ?.
23 Sep 2024 17:22:50
@Stig. i'm fine . The logic was that Cerny as a professional athlete wouldn't take time to recover from a bug. You had reported that you were ill with covid (a bug) and I was concerned that you were back at work and saying you weren't 100%. my point was that everyone takes awhile to get over a big. sorry to use your health to make that but don't need to chill or anything. already responded and don't plan to for every post but apologies for using you health to prove my point; that might have been a bit off.

Profesional athletes with very low body fat can have a weeker immune system compared to someone slighty over weight.
{Ed001's Note - ahead of the 2012 Olympics, I used to train with a bunch of people, some of whom picked up medals (I think training with me probably pushed them on hence why they put the gold postbox outside my house afterwards!). They were so prone to picking up coughs and colds because their bodies were strained so far due to the training. And, as you rightly point out, the lower body fat is also a problem too for the body to draw on for defence.

Yeah a bet it does horrible thing mate, as I said I've never had it stig which I'm grateful for. Couple of malts should help feel better ?.
23 Sep 2024 18:11:09
I'm more curious as to who our illustrious ED001 is now ????.
{Ed001's Note - no one mate, they just happened to live in the same area and would help me with my training, especially swimming, as I was only really learning to swim properly back then. It was the paralympians I used to hate swimming against - getting beaten by someone with 2 arms and legs is one thing, but having someone with just hands, rather than arms, fly past you, is quite disheartening!}
23 Sep 2024 18:23:03
I wish I had used all of those examples now rather than Stig's bout of covid.
23 Sep 2024 18:40:41
No doubt Ed, but you will no doubt have admired their dedication to your sport mate??.
{Ed001's Note - it was brilliant mate. They taught me so much about the sports as well. I mean technical aspects, as I was over reliant on just brute force until then. It made me look more at what I was doing, rather than just trying to do it with more speed and power.}
23 Sep 2024 19:20:27
I think the difference with athletes is that they either train and compete or they don't, They don't have a squad or a sub to step in if there not feeling good.
Stig maybe he could have worded it differently but honestly don't think he was having a pop, he's not that kind of poster mate ?
Ed could we run a poll to see who our famous Ed is? ?.
{Ed001's Note - if I was famous I wouldn't be doing this mate, I would be able to pay someone to do it for me!}
23 Sep 2024 19:39:03
True Ed. Are you any further forward with your living arrangements?
{Ed001's Note - not yet, but I am going back out there tomorrow night to try and find somewhere. Hopefully find something this time.
How are things with you?}
23 Sep 2024 19:53:10
Stig as BB4 says definitely wasn't having a pop.
23 Sep 2024 20:14:11
Yeah good Ed, just back from 2 weeks in ibiza yesterday, so back to reality I guess. Your going back out where Ed? Thailand was it?
{Ed001's Note - no mate, I am in the Philippines at the moment, going back to Dubai. Well, if I can find a cheap enough place to live. Though I can cover most of the rent just by letting out a room through airbnb over New Year to be honest.}
23 Sep 2024 20:29:05
Ed did you live in Dunblane?
{Ed001's Note - no mate.}
23 Sep 2024 20:36:58
Good luck on your property search Ed.
{Ed001's Note - cheers Strom. Fingers crossed for 3rd time lucky!}
23 Sep 2024 20:56:09
That's right Philippines, the last time we spoke you weren't liking it time diffrence etc, did'nt know you were looking at dubai good luck mate ?.
{Ed001's Note - yeah going back there as it is good for the arthritis etc. Can't do cold any more. As I don't drink, it is not that expensive to live for me. If you don't do all the touristy stuff it is on a par with the UK. Cheaper in a lot of respects and they show all the footie there, even the 3pm Saturday kick offs. Also, you can pretty much pay a year's rent by letting out a room over New Year for a couple of nights. You just have to get the right area for that, which is proving difficult at the moment as demand is high at the moment.
What about you? Everything good with you?}
23 Sep 2024 20:59:49
Angus sorry I must have read your post wrong mate
been knackered and cranky so apologies Angus ?.
23 Sep 2024 21:02:45
Ed001 good luck mate finding somewhere
crazy to think how far away you are to be listening to all our rubbish ??.
{Ed001's Note - sadly I can't seem to get far enough away to be unable to hear it!}
23 Sep 2024 21:36:07
?? I bet you can’t
Your work is appreciated though ?.
23 Sep 2024 21:27:26
Yeah gd luck Ed 001 hope you find a nice wee pad??.
{Ed001's Note - cheers Fork. I appreciate that mate.}
23 Sep 2024 22:23:02
Yeah Ed pretty sure tomthumb goes to Croatia for similar reasons. I absolutely hate the cold/ rain. Me and my wife have been talking about moving abroad for a few years now, like yourself none of us drink so managed to save a good bit. We will do it next couple of years. Hope you find the right place mate sure you will.
{Ed001's Note - it is the best thing I ever did. You should try it mate.}
24 Sep 2024 08:50:11
a forum for everyone: a Rangers rumours version of casualty and a place in the sun ?. good that it moves away from the football at times.
24 Sep 2024 08:56:54
