Fatman to Ironman

In all honesty I think you need to just rest tomorrow, there is nothing lost at this stage in getting yourself better.

If you train and are genuinely ill you could lose more than just one missed training session.

Take care and take it easy.

Yes Boss

Tim - I need more zombie books for my boy, it is the only thing I can get him to read. Now he is at secondary suddenly reading isn't cool any more, but he will read zombie books!

any  recommendations (he is only 12 so I don't want to buy him books full of sex though!) gladly received...

 Didn't see the ioringinal post so sorry if already been covered these are all good linky being turned into a film Comic book but still good if the secret santa who got me this as a calendor is reading this thank you.

Those are all really good books and safe for a teenager to read there are a not of arsegravy type books out at the moment with it being popular.

Nursey, what did you say to me about resting !

Mathschick - I always enjoyed Terry Brooks Shannara series of books, first one is called The Sword of Shannara. Easy reading.  http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Sword-Of-Shannara-Number/dp/1857231511

Obviously Tim & Holgs books would be my first choice though

thanks SD and cake

what is Tim's real name (or pen-name?) so I can check out his book?

 If your saying Terry Brooks I think I might get away with saying this is a very good book. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Magician-Riftwar-Saga-ebook/dp/B008TGOMWY/ref=zg_bs_279254_29

mathschick, it's Tim Lebbon.  Lots of my stuff on Amazon.  Coldbrook is a zombie book, although there is a bit of sauciness in there (NOT zombie sex, I hasten to add).  Still, I was reading James Herbert when I was 10, never did me any harm (?).  Has your son read World War Z?  Excellent book.  

Sorry for hijacking IM thread with zombies.  Let's hope that's not what we all resemble at mile 20 of the run... 

Thanks Tim

don't think he has had world war z yet, will have to check. 

He can probably cope with a bit of sauciness, he is at the age where he is starting to learn things from friends, but doesn't really want to talk to us about it, apart from trying to bring inuendos into every conversation

now, just need to stop myself from curling up on the sofa with a book. Need to swim tonight, but swim session doesn't start till 8:15 so there will be a massive temptation to just go to sleep on the sofa and not bother! 

 Tim errr I'm just checking is Tim Lebbon you?  *warning inpending geek alert*

cake - does this mean you know loads about Tim Lebbon and have read all his books?

Nursey, you should know better!    Dont do it again.     

Not read much off his other than a few short shories and something to do with 30 day's of night but if I've got the right tim he's very well respected and also sometimes get's called on to do story's for film spin-off's. If and it's a if I have the right Tim there are friends I need to make sure he never mets or the poor lad will get mobbed by geek's.

Oh and world war z is excellent. if I bump into you in the next few month's I can lend it you but worth buying.

Cake, that's me!

Oh and yes, Nursey if you have a good lathering of moisturiser on you wont get a seal on your goggles ... wait until afters !

thought it rang a bell - OH has the world war z book! Might suggest to son that he sneaks it off the bookshelf..

 Cool in that case if you get to met Mr Lucas as part of the day job please give him a kiss from me for star wars and also ask him to explain that duck film. Right best  get some training in. See you all later's. 

mathschick, it's an excellent book, quite scarily realistic.

Cake, happy training!  Not likely to meet George, but I have done this.
