    Hit the gym or go for a run. Any exercise at all that you can get, it will put you in good form.

    All I will say is don't spend it in the pub/drinking. It will ruin any benefit you'll get from the run, i'm not telling you anything you don't know i'm sure.
    Enjoy yourself anyway whatever you're at.

    Set yourself the challenge of watching a full season boxset: 20 + episodes of approx 40 mins.

    You can only leave the couch to change discs.

    Yes ;)

    Can't imagine it to be much fun to be honest.

    I have often went to pubs on my own but at least there you can interact with others and get into conversation. No chance of that in the cinema.

    Tbf, if people start having conversations and interacting with each other during a cinematic presentation I tell them to shut up. Loudly. :D

    Odd.
    I think cinemas are for experiencing a movie in (depending on the cinema) it's best form, not for socialising/conversation.

    Either way, don't go to the cinema.

    You seem to like fitness, so... Twelve hours on a treadmill?

    Eeew, socialise? with "strangers"? no thanks...

    Go to the cinema alone is no different than watching a movie at home by yourself.

    Just to differentiate here, I personally don't see nothing wrong with socialising with strangers (esp when travelling) but I draw the line at having a grand aul yap with the person beside you in the cinema... :D

    Last time someone tried to engage me in a conversation at the pictures was at Walt Disney's "The Black Hole"... I'm still livid :D;)

    I do think there is a difference between watching a DVD in the comfort of your own home and going to the cinema alone.

    I generally I have no problem doing things on my own but I would draw the line at going to the cinema. I just think it looks quite sad and I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it.
