Frank Sidney Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Ooooh, I think I may have seen you! Do you remember me? I was the one looking all sweaty and out of breath on one of the treadmills And yes, HLC is a very friendly, inclusive and supportive gym and I'm quite happy to share my money with them to help me lose weight. Mmmm, do you usually go on the treadmill near the weighing machine? Do you remember me?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medusa Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 You do realise that at some point we could recognise each other for real, which is a little odd. Unless you're really unusual looking or have particularly interesting tattoos (or really bad technique on the leg press machine that puts you at risk of hurting yourself so I feel obliged to stop you) I'm not that likely to notice you to be honest; I'm far too busy doing my own thing and trying to keep the sweat out of my eyes.

I've been grinning at every sweaty female on a treadmill for weeks. Still no joy. Been swore at and punched though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherriepie Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Hello - I'm a member at Hillsborough Leisure Centre. You may have seen me I'm the bloke in string vest and plimsoles? Anyway, before I start my moan I'd like to say that the Leisure Centre is by far the best I've been a member of, and I've been a member of quite a few. The staff are great, the equipment (love the power plates) is good and there's plenty of it. My only moan would be I want a jucuzzi, and I want one now!! Right these are my observations and advise to other members.. 1. Will the middle aged men, you know who you are, please buy some new swimming attire. Your Life Saving badge, that your mother stitched on, is well past its best. As are the seventies style shorts its stitched to. And please get some that fit. Alternatively, please don't sit in front of me in the sauna because its not a pretty site. 2. Will the middle aged hippy type men please buy a full length mirror, then you will appreciate what you look like. A ordinary dress shirt tucked into cycling shorts, accompanied with black diamond festune socks and Tesco toe bender trainers, is not a great look. 3. Will the fit young men who almost lick the mirror as they change in front of it realise, as my gran would say, "those who love themselves the most, find it hardest to find the love of another"... 4. Will the men who like an audience and flex their mussles on the pushy up thing in front of the bikes realise we think you are a bit dim. 5. Please will the gents who get dried in the changing area please use the shower area. Puddles are a little annoying. 6. Will the men who seem to still think they're 6 months old and cover everything with talc please, at least, clean it up. 7. Will the men who combine 5 and 6 please ensure it is cleaned up. I got home the other day and I'd got a bap on each foot.... Anyway, I could go on but that's it for now anyway:D So you don't fit into this catagory then ?

Frank Sidney Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 Noticed a bit of a crack down last night on parking. Someone from the council was ticketing cars parked on the single yellow line outside. Also someone who was parked in a disabled bay without a badge. If there is an issue with the gym it has to be parking during busy times. I don't know why there's any need for parking restrictions on the road outside its fairly quiet...
