Good news. The ladies only classes have stopped at my leisure centre.

Myself and a few other men have complained to our local leisure centre about classes which only ladies can use.
Our argument was they were not providing men only classes and if the ladies wanted ladies only classes without equivalent men only classes the ladies which use these classes should pay extra as it is a council leisure centre for everybody to use.
They have done a survey and found that none of the ladies going to these classes were bothered about men being in them.
As far as I am concerned any ladies who want ladies only classes should go to private gyms.
The membership fees are a lot higher than the local leisure centre but that is their problem.

Why do people say they are going to get engaged? If you have popped the question and given an answer, then you are - even if the ring comes later.
St Val*e*ntine has a lot to answer for.

No! I just didn't see your post. When I said "#lifestooshort, I meant trying to work out what this thread is all about. This last bit of it. (this is to OGM by the way.

petallus Thu 31-Jan-13 14:23:11

It's just that snakes seem to rule the world.

petallus Thu 31-Jan-13 14:24:28

I wonder if the snake in the Garden of Eden is meant to be a metaphor?

Great news.

The new man from Monday turned up tonight as promised and has also said he is going on Sunday.
I have heard that another man has joined and is now normally in a class I do not attend.
It appears there are 3 daytime classes which are man less so we must get something done about that.
