  • Realized that car school runs now mean some days I don't even get 30 mins of exercise.

    Implementing lunch time walks.

    Not much to see where I work, unless I want to walk all the way to the birds reservation but that's more than an hour walking. For that there's 4G and youtube and headphones though :)

  • I used to walk around the block reading a book.

    Yeah, before being a smartphone zombie was cool.

    This was in Oz though, where we can build flat concrete footpaths and don't fill every fucking street with shite to bump into.

  • don't fill every fucking street with shite to bump into.

    There's a bit more space, when you have a huge continent with only around 1,000 inhabitants :-)

  • It's raining all the time here, I'd need a waterproof book... [island of Ireland weather stereotype jokes]

    :)

    On that note: Our footpath near work has an area with stupid steps which result in people walking on the cycle lane instead. Should complain to owner of grounds, see what they say.

    The rest is fine, it's just one spot of weirdness. People can walk around it with a whole 5 meter detour, but that's just not how humans roll :)

  • I read my book while walking! The pavements here have bikes, scooters and out-of-control poodles wearing clothes so it's perhaps a little dangerous, but then again this is a country full of smartphone zombies so we're all good at dodging each other.
