moonshineshadow: Cyling is not really possible here if you are not completely crazy, too much slope everywhere :D
I was also thinking about swimming. I always had fun doing that. I think I will check if there is a good location nearby.
I was also thinking about perhaps taking some Taekwondo lessons but there is the language problem. I did some martial arts before so trying another would be interesting. Perhaps in two years when I move away from here.
I can see why cycling would be difficult with lots of slopes. Swimming sounds like a good choice, especially if you have fun doing it. Hopefully there is someone good nearby were you can enjoy some time swimming. Taekwondo also sounds fun, but I can understand your reluctance due to the language barrier.

The nice thing about swimming is that it's good exercise but it's not too strenuous. I am lucky to have some natural places to swim nearby, and also some Olympic size pools in the nearby towns. The advantage of the indoor pools is that they are heated. The North Sea is the coldest place I have swam in. It was during Winter last year and for a charity event. I was like a frozen icicle when I got out of the water. But it was still fun.

moonshineshadow: Great plan! I am sure the battle maiden and the children of chaos will be happy ;-)
I sure hope so. I don't dare to imagine what could happen otherwise...

Sounds great. I am always happy when I go on holidays near the sea and can swim there :-)
I hope I can find something good near, since going there with public transports for a long time would be annoying :D Or perhaps there is a location near my work then I could go there in the evening.

Finding a place near your work sounds like a good idea. That way you can go for a swim after a stressful day at work and just burn of some of that frustration and have some fun swimming. You will just have to remember your swimsuit, unless you plan to swim naked. And if you do, don't tell Endre, it would just get him too exited. :-)

Don't worry I will surely not forget that :D I tend to have ones that cover as much as possible and no swimsuit would be never be an option at all. And of course I would never risk getting Endre too exited :P
Sounds like someone wants to get hugged again :)

You too,DD. Prepare for slimmy hug.
Decisive victory in phase one. Battle of phase 2 is still raging:

Meat strips (pork, I would have preferred turkey, but it was out of stock) in yoghurt curry sauce with spinach and basmati rice.

Yeah hugs *big return hug*

I swim in a regular one-piece swimsuit as well, as I have never been a fan of swimming in a bikini, which seems to be quite popular these days. I have swam in my underwear a few times on the lake near the farm, but it's quite isolated there. Usually during the summer when I just fancied a swim but did not have my swimsuit. But I have never gone swimming completely naked, not even somewhere isolated like the lake.

Good luck with phase 2. I hate to think what will happen if you displease a Chaos battle maiden and the children of Chaos. :-)

That sounds like fun, having a lake near must be great :-)
And yeah, I prefer modest swimwear, which is also much more comfortable if you really want to swim some distances.

I have seen a few women over the years at the indoor swimming pool who have had a wardrobe malfunction while swimming due to bikinis, or very skimpy one-piece swimsuits. They love to strut about in their little outfits for the guys, but then while actually swimming some of them inadvertently slip out of their swimsuits. Which is always funny to watch, as they become so bashful all of a sudden. :-)

Well I won't be much use until Monday, or Sunday night. I will not be on the forum until then. So I guess you will just have to suffer until I come back to look for you. Even then it might be too late. Those Chaos women are strong stuff, especially if their minions don't cook a good mean. :-)

Edit: You have made me hungry now as well, and I am not off work for over an hour or so. :-(

I was just going over my shelf to see which games are not yet unbundled, and I was wondering if anyone else thought it was strange that GOG is not unbundling games like F.E.A.R. which is over 7gb, but they unbundle games like Blitzkrieg or Zork (with is less than 100mb combined)?

Not really important, just something I was thinking while looking through my shelf.
