Thanks for posting on my diary. That's really sweet of you to give me some support. Hope you'll stick around.
Thanks also to my more regular visitors - don't know what I'd do if I came on and none of you had been....I would be gutted.
Anyhow, I know totally LOVE squash. It has got to be the best sport around. I was totally knackered at the end of 45 minutes - far more than running or any exercise DVD ever!!!! But its just so much fun.
Clearly, I lost EVERY game...but went from being thrashed 15-3 to being only just beat 15-10 at the end. I can't serve...that's my main problem. Although to be fair, I have only played squash about 5 times before and it was 10 years ago...so I am cutting myself some slack.
I might join a women's league (a league where people are a bit rubbish!) to see how I get on.
Also went along to the Pro-Retail show in Telford today. Its a great place to go and get freebies.
Its meant for the retail trade (but we know some people
), and all the big manufacturers are there peddling their wares. You get carrier bags full of stuff - and samples the whole day.I could easily have eaten 10,000 calories on the free stuff they kept thrusting at me.
Managed to resist most of it - but not at the Green & Blacks stand, the danish pastries, the Thorntons stand and the toffee/fudge woman! So well over points even with the squash I reckon.
Ho hum, tomorrow is another day. xx
Lou, can't remember the name of the DVD - think its pump it up, lose it. It has Deanne Berry taking the class and its pretty good.

oooh squash sounds really good! my dad plays it each week and although he's still big as a house, the amount he eats you would think he would be putting weight on, but at least the exercise is keeping him maintaining at the weight he's at

I wouldn't be any good at squash, the ball flies back too quickly. Would be a good idea for you though to join a league x
sorry but that made me PMSL!!!
Go rosie you are doing fab,the freebies sounded interesting bet you were like a kid in a toy shop when you got home looking through the bags!!
Never tried squash TBH,not very good with a raquet unless im clobbering one round OH's head..LOL.
Well done xx

Wants it Gone!
my best friend put me off squash when we were younger. He was playing squash and the ball hit him in the eye, he was very lucky that he didnt lose his sight, had to stay lying down for three months!

In the 10s at last!
Behave..three months lying down! ha ha
Rosie with all these horror stories of squash injuries i suggest you find a safer sport or you will end up blind or with a racket sticking out your neck which is never a good look
I think tiddly winks is the next way forward x

I played Squash years ago and you'd have thought I'd been swimming! I sweated like a.........whatever sweats alot! It's so fast paced 'n crazy........ was bloody brilliant though. Was about 20 years ago (I'm 40 now) and don't think my poor bones 'n wobbly bum could cope as well nowadays. LOL
