Still unable to get out. Pain had just about subsided last Tuesday, I was excited to get out. Had to stop within 100 yards, probably set me back a week or so. Really frustrating. Looks to be a strain of the medial meniscus. I'm hoping just a grade 1 strain, I've always been able to bear weight, never had any swelling and there was no instant pop noise. So I'm fairly confident it should heal fairly quickly.

Learnt a bit of a lesson last week. I had a small bit of soreness on the inside of my right knee. Running might have contributed but I actually felt it sitting down at work for the first time last Tuesday, sitting like a child with my right leg tucked under my left. Didn't think much of it, that night I went a run, I could feel it but wasn't particularly sore until 6k, when I made a stupid decision to push on. Stopped at 7k. I haven't been able to run since and its starting to piss me off a little bit. Desperate to get out again. I was on the cross-trainer, bike and Stairmaster at the gym yesterday afternoon but it all felt so mundane. Knee got through that no problem, I'm just worried about hitting the road again now in case I'm set back again.

Good thread this. Like a lot of people, I did a bit of running in 2021 but when things went back to being a bit more normal I started back playing football and the running eventually just stopped. I got the notion before Christmas, did a very slow 12k and then got bad cold (covid). Went out again Jan 1st, joined a gym and starting running on the treadmill and the odd road run. I've been consistent since, 4/5 runs a week between 5k and 14k so far. I'm not following a plan as such, just trying to get out when I can (3 kids all doing their own evening activities). I've definitely caught the running bug. I'm really really enjoying it this time. I'm in no rush, but I'm excited to carry on to see where it takes me. My best run so far was a 10k in sub 52mins. Felt great until the last KM. Stinking hangover on Sunday after a heavy day at the football Saturday (rarely drink these days) and managed to get out for a slow 11k. It was rough but I felt a million times better for doing it.

With Dubai it really depends what you're planning on doing. If its just a case of putting your feet up for three days, then of course it doesn't need to be expensive. There's plenty of activities that won't break the bank tough. If by this you mean there's little to do in Dubai, then your miles off the mark. There's endless activities.

I don't think my post came across how I meant it to. Sorry for the offence. I've got two Tissot watches, one bought earlier this month that I'll wear for work and another I use less frequently because I hate the thought of damaging it. The reason I was asking about Ali express was really because I fancy adding watch or two more without spending too much that I could throw on at times. It wasn't a case getting a watch to try and impress anyone, I genuinely could not care. If its chines shite I'll wait a bit and buy something else I'll save my questions for elsewhere in the future.

What's the script with Ali Express? I quite fancy a new "high end looking" watch but I'm not looking to spend much at the moment.

Did another Hero SBC and got 90 rated Lucio. He's a wall in game. Don't think I've ever used a CB as good as he is.

Mascherano for me. Meh. Could have been worse.

I was coaching my son's 2011s football team Saturday morning. Got home to over 50 emails. Somebody had got into my PS account and helped themselves to 10 payments of £50 with my linked debit card. Some scummy people out there. Of course, Sony don't work over the weekend, so cards cancelled, and it took until yesterday afternoon to get through but they're refunding this week. Hardly any content over the weekend so didn't miss too much, caught up with the tokens last night. Hoping for GG again this weekend.

I take it there'll be a load more swap objectives tonight again? Quite enjoyed doing them last weekend. Nice break from weekend league and a bit easier to manage with kids running about as GG games are generally only a couple of minutes long.

Assumed my luck ha well and truly dried up, not quite. Thought I’d a few 75+ player picks before rolling out of bed this morning - first pick I did and I was greeted by this fine gentleman. Trades for around 650k with terrible links so it must be a handy card.

Wow. Haha - borderline useable I suppose. Enjoy.

Thats some pull. Tradeable?

I've 3 kids now. 11, 7 & 9 months. 323 babies.

Cancelo is excellent. You need to start using him. Red picks were Dembele and Casimiro. Front 6 and Militao are all untradeable. I have a shit ton of coins now. I should probably start trading, but I wouldn't know where to start and would most likely lose coins. Nakata and Thiago are both cracking cards, especially Nakata for the price.
