Chompy suggested that the bus was a good way to get home from a restaurant that you've been to with a girl. What disasterous dates have you been on?
Alt: I dunno, food/fake weekend/plans etc etc

I cannot recall ever having gone on a 'date'.
This is because I am English. Dates to me are food or calendar entries.
With this in mind, I urge you with the utmost severity to
a) delete your account and
b) kill yourself
Alt: I'm not seeing my daughter. I am fucking livid about this. My ex has lost it again. Yesterday she referred to 'defamation of character' because I pointed out that, as a benefit cheat, she's on thin ice going on about the CSA. Two weeks ago her kidney function was down to 15%. Hopefully she'll be dead soon.

I went on a date that I didn't know was a date
until she started trying to suck my kidneys out through my mouth.
That came as something of a surprise.
Most depressing date was with a really cute little redhead shortly before I got together with the ex. I fancied her a lot. She was...disparaging. Not rude, but refused a second date on the grounds that she was swimming in cock and I lived a bit too far away. Shame, that. I'd have ruined her.

Went to the Nottinghill brasserie for dinner on Wednesday with my husband and the boring spastic kept moaning about how expensive it was
Then on the taxi ride home he kept complaining about how expensive that was and going on an on about having to pay for a babysitter.
Then he was surprised when I didn't want to have sex with him at the end of the night.

recently i went out with a guy who revealed himself to be a rather intense christian about 30 mins in
that was pretty bad.
and there was one guy who spent the entire date texting his ex. also quite lame.
but only the cunt who expected me to sit in the freezing cold so he could smoke his cheap-ass rollies and expected me to pay for everything without even saying thank you (the classic line "yeah, i assumed you'd pay" made my friends howl with laughter) was what i'd call a total disaster. i think he must have been raised by yaks, or pigs or something.

The only date I've been on was a long weekend in Amsterdam.
At one point I was in the toilet of the hotel room having the most noisy, farty dump ever and simultaneously laughing at myself and crying with embarassment knowing she could hear every trumpety fart.
Surprisingly, that was the start of what was a great relationship.
Alt: drowning my sorrows in cheap wine, as usual.

Weight machines and pool?
I still think the local swimming pools are much better value for nearly everyone though, usually £3-4 a time.

Agreed in principle, although I don't like swimming due to contact lens/blindness issues
I've got free weights at home which work out cheaper as a one-off payment but obviously don't give you the range of workout options that the machines do

It's a lot closer than my nearest decent pool, which I'd have to drive to.
But it's just so fucking rank, it's filthy and the staff are such retards.

Free weights are all you need for any workout options.
In fact, you don't really need weights, if you have a chin up bar then you can do most every sort of strength exercise using your own body weight.
Unless you're Bobby in which case your body weight is too great to use.

The main advantage that I can see of doing free weights, or indeed the treadmill, at home
is that you can choose what's on the telly

i go (i) because i pay so much for it that it would piss me off if i didn't, so it makes me go
(ii) i like to use the spa bit on sundays
(iii) i have my own weights, mat, medicine ball, swissball and a boxing tube in my flat - but the resistance machines at the gym are still so much better
(iv) classes - zumba etc
i'm not sure if this makes me an epic narcissist or racked with self-loathing. both?

Also resistance machines aren't better than free weights, free weights are better in every single way than any machine.

you know, one of those man-height things that you punch and kick
if you're working out by yourself and you're relatively new to it, i think the machines are safer. sure if you stick to it, you can graduate to free weights. but you can do so much harm, or make it so pointless, by getting the movements wrong with free weights that i prefer the machines at the moment.

Just start with a light weight, then you can't do any harm.
You have to use every single machine to get a proper balance of muscle strength, but if you use free weights then the fact that it doesn't run in a smooth channel makes lots of other muscles work at the same time to stabilise yourself.

hmmm, ok...... i definitely do agree that overall free weights are better, so would be keen to test this
i have 1kg, 3kg, 5kgs at home and then an 8kg medicine ball (which kills me for sit-ups). guess i could start with the middle ones. the ex put together a really detailed programme for me, maybe i will blow the dust off that.

Only problem I have with my free weights is there's only 41kg total including bar weights
And I've been benching that for about a year. I know higher reps are good for developing leaner muscles and all that but eventually I'll have to shell out for more
