Check out the local gym anyway- you’d be surprised how many people are there packing a bit of extra weight. There’s also a high likelihood they’ll have some basic gym equipment, so you get a bit of a two-for-one deal in that regard. It’s also way easier to meet and chat with people than your typical gym.

My pet peeve is people cycling with a helmet but not doing it up. It’s so blatantly stupid- you get none of the benefits, and all of the negatives.

Ok I lost respect for you when you said ‘reading and righting’ but that line right there gained it all back and then some, well done!

The natural extension of this is that everyone should live in one big megacity. Is this what you want?
