Fitness

How fit are you? My youngest son bought a pull-up bar last week. You hang it on the door frame and then you can do your pull-ups. Well, I haven't been to the gym for years, so I thought this was a handy way to do something for my fitness. But my, that was embarrassing. I hung there like a wet sack, unable to pull myself up even a centimetre. My eldest son looked at my useless efforts and said he wondered just how I managed to carry the shopping up to the second floor. I am now determined to go by the instructions of Leo's great Guide Entry and see how far I get. I'll keep you posted – or not, depends on the outcome.

Last week, I told you about the trouble I had to load h2g2 pages. I couldn't explain it, but with the help of the eds and a few friends, I was able to exclude a variety of possible reasons. It all boiled down to be a fault at my ISP's end. So, after I had battled with pages that took ages to load if they loaded in the first place, I eventually asked my husband to check it for himself. I knew he would think it was the BBC if he didn't see for himself. He checked a few things, then called our ISP. They checked something and immediately said there was indeed something wrong at their end and that they'd fix it. Which they did. It was fixed when I got home from work the next day. So now I can access my conversations and the Post pages again.

So all's well that ends well, and we present you with yet another great issue of the h2g2 Post. Enjoy!
