    Changed jeans at lunch there.

    I have to say Levi's are my new favourite (have gone off diesel)
    The 506 range is class and the perfect fit, def recommend them to anyone as i know its very hard to find nice jeans.

    Have only heard good things about the 506 range in fairness

    Got myself another pair of GAP jeans last time I was in Dublin - can't fault them, cheap and comfy

    Must have a look at these Levis 506, I usually wear Diesel, Mustang or RL but buy them when abroad as we get completely ripped off here.

    Jeez it's been years since I had a pair of Levis :P

    Must look at those too, handy for work where I destroy jeans at a vast rate, currently going through about 6+ pairs of jeans a year atm :mad:

    Have any of you watched Orange is the New Black?

    I'm not that sick really - my breathing in is restricted but not badly and I just have a bit of a cough

    If it gets worse I'll go home but thankfully I don't rely on my lungs too much for IT work :)

    3hours....god above! I'm thankful that I rarely sleep badly, I pass out, I wake up, it's morning!

    Funny you say that i've just signed up to the gym in work too.

    My aim is go twice a week and also play 5 aside footie twice a week.
    I estimate that my body will be a temple in 3 weeks.

    Then i'll wreck that body with 20 pints of guinness and a pizza every weekend - its a balancing act.

    I've been thinking of changing gyms to go for more convenience - I'm not exactly around the corner from my place and two options are available - one near work and one near home - problem is those gyms aren't up to scratch from what I can see

    So I'm now hoping to get over my current physical ailment and get back to gymming - I'm hoping that if I can get quality sessions in with the program we got through the club and then the GAA pre season will give me more than enough cardio starting off
