    Course there are, ignore these heathens.

    Climbing a mountain is boring yet running on a treadmill in your own house isn't? Kden.

    What footwear do you posses? Can always think of something according to what you own, rather than having to buy stuff.

    Running on a treadmill is boring. It's made less boring by listening to some banging tunes or watching something on a tablet.

    I'm all for a great view. I love looking at the coastline from my sunbed. I just don't enjoy walking up and down the coast to view it when I could be lying down drinking a cocktail.

    I suppose it’s better than visiting the Local Supermarket and making a day of it when on holiday abroad or walking down some random street pretending it’s great Architecture.

    Things like this is why I fail at relationships in the long run I think.

    a shot of orange juice mixed with honey and a tea-spoon of cayenne pepper.

    I'll happily walk round an interesting city but walking in the countryside or along a coastline? Bollocks.

    I have all of those things so will try it although just googled it and the advice was not to use more than a quarter of a tsp of cayenne unless you want to experience rectal bleeding.

    I like doing both - the idea of spending my holiday led on a sun lounger or constantly drinking bores me to tears personally.

    The Mumbles and Langland Bay are nice, I swear Chief has put photos up round near there before, maybe to do with his golf. Easy walking areas.

    One of the joys of not having a mrs is being able to do whatever the **** you want when planning **** like this.

    I don’t mind an interesting city( a few hours and done)but I’m talking about when you’re on holiday for a Week or 10 days. A woman always wants to do something every ****ing day. There’s not something interesting to do everyday...there just isn’t.

    and that’s when lies have to start happening to please people.

    Only trainers n that really, I don't mind buying a decent pair of footwear or bag etc. I just ain't spending loads getting the whole shebang for the sake of two days.


    I thought I'd be able to do most just in normal clothes but think I was a bit optimistic reading around online.

    Can you go down the slopes in Aspen on a bin bag? Or is that frowned upon?

    From experience, or just an assumption?

    well, it's clearly possible to slide down any snowy mountain on a bin bag, so you can, but whether they'll let you, and not kick you off the moutain, is another matter entirely. Personally though I'd say it's a **** idea as they're far too thin, you want a proper bag like you get at a builders merchant.

    Some of my favourite experiences on ecstasy were going down the nearby artificial ski slopes on for sale signs aged 15. Great fun.




    Wait, wrong thread?

    haha, I've never had a rush like the one I had when I went skiing on a pill and faceplanted in a huge snow mound.
