Shrimperzone. It's St. Patrick's Day and noone has started a thread about plastic paddies and the fact nobody celebrates St. Georges Day. It's sort of a tradition innit? :thumbdown:

Met an Irish friend on the train yesterday and he was coming back from a Curragh race.Unbelievable what these paddies will do.:winking:
 
I think The Pub should be turned into a Gastropub to try and attract a more aspirational middle class clientelle.
 
Yuk. A cheese roll and a pint of Guiness will be fine. Maybe some Pork Scratchings.

Are pork scratchings good for you? I bought some at a farm open day the other day and given how many I ate, I really hope the answer is 'yes'.

Back on topic, a supplier failing to deliver a new product for us on time. Because it'll be me who will be made to look the **** in front of my boss when i break the news in about five minutes.
 
Pretty much a kilo of fat then. Better go for that lunchtime run after all.

I don't want to upset you, but to lose one pound (0.45kg) of fat you need to burn about 3500 calories. i.e. you need to use 3500 calories more than you eat. Assuming you can burn about 700 calories an hour (unlikely in most cases) it would take you about 10 hours of exercise, and to eat nothing in the process, to burn that binge off.

I didn't *actually* eat a kilo of scratchings!

Anyhow, on a normal 4 mile lunchtime run, I'd burn something in the region of 700 calories.

And don't forget, most of the calories you burn are just through existing. Your body is burning them all the time just to keep you ticking over.
