    See I do distances in metres and centimetres for everything except personal height.

    And for some reason, I struggle to use the systems in the opposite way.

    If I try to imagine someone 170cm tall, I struggle to do it. But give me their height in feet and inches and I can imagine it fine.

    Tell me to imagine a table 2 foot by 2 foot and I struggle to do it, but if it's in metric I have no issue.

    @Jimm_Scope have you tried imagining a person laying on the table, or a table stood up against the wall??

    Oh, well… hmm

    You know what I hadn't thought of that.

    @Teigr
    Oh yeah theyr probably really strong but there’ll be great benefits from them.

    @66Mustang

    Aww it’s just the normal Nike for my grandsons but my son and daughter spend a lot on good trainers some are for running so suppose you need good quality.

    @Lou67 Yeah I agree and I can understand that. I don't go running but I do lots of walking, I've always bought walking shoes for like £30 and they needed replacing every 6 months. Last November as a treat I got some good walking shoes which were just over £100 and they still look like new, plus they are lots more comfortable as well

    @66Mustang
    Oh well that’ll work out worth it in the long run, as they will probably last years and comfort is key.
    I have a few things wrong with my feet I’ve been attending the podiatrist for years, I’ve bought all the good named trainers and after half an hour I get shooting pains in my feet and I can’t wear them again. I bought a cheap pair off knitted type trainers from Amazon for £22 and I’ve never had them off my feet lol But I do prefer paying more for quality stuff in general but comfort comes first.

    @Lou67 I agree I think comfort comes above everything else with clothes and shoes!! There's no point looking nice but being in agony 😳

    I'm off for a dog walk and other things, I hope everyone has a nice rest of the morning

    Morning all, not my usual cheery message, I’m still suffering with awful head, fever which comes and goes and an awful cough/sore throat. Can barely concentrate on anything and just been dozing, I even missed the football last night 😞although checking the score that was probably for the best, lol

    Thinking of you all ❤️

    Aww that’s rotten it’s horrible I had the same thing for a couple off weeks on and off my nose is still a little blocked. You probably need an antibiotic with it lasting so long. I hope you feel better soon. Lots off love 💕

    @66Mustang

    Enjoy your walk I think I will join you from afar lol it’s a beautiful day here didn’t expect it to be as nice.

    Hi everyone, we just had a nice walk and are getting a cup of coffee on the way to the shop 😆 I’m parked next to the same car I have but a different colour… I don’t like doing that but there were no other spaces at the time … I think it’s an enthusiast as they have stickers on the car and stuff

    I’m just off a walk up to Aldi for fruit then round to tesco just for a look around see what I can pick up. I have my granddaughter tomorrow so want to get a couple off treats for her.

    @66Mustang
    Oh people with think there’s a mini car show on lol enjoy your coffee.

    Hi @Lou67 it was just McDonald's coffee but I think their coffee is really nice, and it's £2 for a cup unlike some of the big chains that charge £5

    I hope you enjoy your trip or are still enjoying it if you're not back yet

    I think I'm going to go off preemptively for today

    I feel OK but I've seen another new member doing the rounds on the forum who clearly just wants to cause upset and I am well aware I'm not a strong enough person not to rise to the bait and argue with them so I'm going to avoid it

    I know "trolling" is a thing as some people get pleasure from causing upset but I can't imagine what kind of person would target a disability forum with lots of vulnerable people etc… it would be fun to meet them in real life 🙄

    I hope everyone has a lovely rest of the day and my PM is always open if someone wants to chat 😊 👍
