vegan_rossco Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 Thanks for changing the name of my log MF.. Hahaha So loads of things going on for me right now! I had an interview with an eco charity called the footprint trust which I will hopefully be working for in a few weeks time I do have to study for it though so I've been too occupied to train really. I'm also going on holiday sunday/monday for a week but its at centerparcs which means I'll be cycling, swimming and running everyday, it'll do me some good to actually do cardio for once Will keep everyone updated with how the job goes!

Mini Forklift Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Lol at the name change, was wondering if it would get a rise out of you!Good luck on the job, sounds like an awesome one mate. You deserve it, perfect for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 Thanks dude they just need me to write a little essay redo my cv with my experience on it and learn 20 latin names for plants..I don't get paid until I do 6 weeks or so of volunteering and training with them but the works awesome. I'll be attending events and giving advice on energy saving, working with 'green gym' and 'green army' which means I'll be out in the woods plus I get to work from home certain days making leaflets and training with a local forest ranger! Dream job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Sounds good, I'm sure the Latin will be a piece of cake once you get stuck into it. Keep us in the loop as to how it all transpires. Will you be giving up the bat hospital or you're going to keep that going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 Looks like I'll be leaving the bat hospital to be honest mate.. Hardest decision I've had to make in a long time but I need to earn money so me and the mrs can save move out and start a family, don't say anything about the bat hospital on my facebook though dude I haven't told them just yet Right so the holiday was awesome! Cycling and swimming everyday, waking up in a shalet in the middle of a forest was incredible! Seeing wildlife everywhere and everything. So as you may have guess I feel depressed now and have the post holiday blues :/ On the plus side I'm training an old friend of mine who wants to get bigger and stronger it started as a drunken request but he contacted me yesterday and we'll either be training today or monday! He's a meat eater and fussy about food so I'm not going to try and make him eat the way I want.. If this 'little project' goes well I'll look into personal training as a hobby and bit on the side everynow and again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegan_rossco Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 So I've got a lot going on right now.. Me and my gf are moving into a new house and with two jobs on the go its a very busy and exciting time! Unfortunately I won't have any room for my weights so until I join a gym I'll be training with just my bodyweight! Luckily the new job keeps me very physically active, lots of walks and physical work out in forests and beaches!I'll keep everyone updated as to what I get up to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asparagus Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 There's your workout right there, moving large appliances around! Just weld a steel bar between the washer and dryer and use it for all your barbell work. Glad things are going well for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegan_rossco Posted October 24, 2013 Author Share Posted October 24, 2013 The Dark Knight Returns!I love this! I'm still awaiting my dumbbells.. But they should be here by next monday/tuesday which means I'll start training immediately after! I've met some friends at my new job that are really keen runners, they're actually competing in the great south run at the weekend and recommended that I give running a try.. So I may have to think about that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
