I have previously battled addiction to Irn Bru in my life.
battled with the same level of commitment as France in 1940
you mentioned drinking 3 cans of it last night

Woah. I never said I drank them all. I had one last night. It got to the tipping point when I was working in Scotland, I once bought a 24 pack of Irn Bru cans and drove to Dundee in my bare feet where I proceeded to drink them all.
Soon after I returned to Ireland to dry out, I think it shows how far I have come in that time that I can now manage my Irn Bru consumption maturely.

[QUOTE=âNembo Kid, post: 1135682, member: 2514â]Popped in to Dealz on the way back home from work and picked up 3 cans of Irn Bru for the Europa League feast of football tonight. Also have a âŹ60 accumulator on the 4 games in the Europa League and League One playoffs so Iâll be getting some rush off that this evening as well.
Iâm on top of the world, guys.[/QUOTE]
sorry - your syntax suggested you would drink them all during the football
in the âtop of the worldâ thread too ffs sake
[QUOTE=âBandage, post: 1135737, member: 9â]Some splendid anecdotes and memories being shared here.
My dear mother is fairly clueless when it comes to diet, nutrition and healthy eating and itâs a source of regular mild conflict between her and my sister.
My Mam picks up my nephew from school and my sister generally prepares healthy dishes similar to those mentioned by Chef @Fran for him and drops them to my folksâ place in advance.
Then sheâll drop by to collect him after work and itâll often be a case of âhe didnât want the stew so I made him some frozen mini-pizzas and chicken nuggets insteadâ or something. My sisterâs response is generally âMam, itâs great you offer to collect him from school but please give him the food Iâve prepared. Heâs 7 so donât let him dictate to you - we donât want him eating unhealthy processed food.â
Youâd see her then giving him chocolate, sweets and bits of cake and stuff without him even asking for it. Sheâll say âah heâs a good boy and itâs a little treat for himâ if challenged on it.
Bless her - she has no idea. No wonder I grew tits as a teenager.[/QUOTE]
Good to hear @tiger[/USER] has settled down , now we know where [USER=116]@The Dunph went to 
In fairness some of the schools have very good fitness and healthy eating policyâs, the school my lads attend is very very progressive in that way.
No fizzy drinks allowed in lunches and absolutely no chocolate or sweets, every Friday theyâre allowed a standard size bag of tayto or something like that.
Recently my youngest was reprimanded for bringing in a brioche type thing with tiny specs of chocolate inside of it.
Theyâre at the moment trying to achieve their fourth green flag - this is some type of active schools accreditation scheme. To get the flag kids have to walk to school at least 1 day per week all year. This is quite easily organised for participating kids. The drop off point for school is a car park a km away from the school and the kids all walk the km to school before starting time accompanied by teaching staff and volunteer parents.
This year each child, depending on age had to walk , a half marathon for the older kids right down to 10kms for the youngest around the school yard throughout the school year. I know for a fact that this is the only exposure some of the kids get to healthy eating and exercise because they sure as hell donât get it at home.
One stupid bitch mother is always moaning about the struggle to keep her young lad from getting obese like his father⌠But much to the amusement of the entire school community she drives him 800m to school every day and collects him again. 800m !!!
Make the little fat bastard walk and heâll lose the flab

So your kids are porkers? This proves my point⌠The effects of your diet will be passed onto your childer⌠The poor fucker sneaking in a dessert, he must have it bad.
No CM theyâre far from porkers, thanks be to god.
Luckily enough both myself and my wife arenât prone to carry excess weight, my kids eat their fair share of sweets and rubbish food in fairness, but only after their 3 proper meals are eaten.
They also have various sporting activities 4 nights per week and are busy at weekends too so get adequate exercise.
Tks for your concern all the same. buddy.
Fat fucks should be paying more tax given the burden that they are on the health system
just cause you are not carrying excess weight does not mean you are an unhealthy piece of shit, still stuffing your face full of soft drinks, crips, sweets and crap like your average Irish roaster

A coach who visits schools told me recently that in one school he spent 10 minutes doing a light warm up and mobility exercises (bunny hops etc)with the children. He was shocked at how restricted there mobility was. He came away thinking he would have to do a lot of that kind of thing with them only to be called in by the principal on his next visit and told not to be doing exercises with the children because parents had been complaining that their children were sore the next day. :mad:

Thatâs good parenting.
I hope it is Bandage,I really fucking hope it is.
I could easily see though how the lazy (or really busy) parents could affect their childrenâs lifestyle.
Some days you mightnât feel like driving them to training/ swimming / matches / squash or athletics and the easy option is to switch on the TV for them while you watch the TV in the sitting room, but then you see their little fat fuck mates and say to yourself, No!
Iâll get up off my hole and encourage them along. If mam and dad donât push and encourage healthy activity what hope have small kids.
Put all the blame you like on school vending machines and deli counters but at the end of the day itâs at home that the vital lifestyle options are decided.

Great to hear, pal⌠May I suggest you make them do 20 push ups at random times during the day⌠DOWN AND GIVE ME 20!! We need to build strong citizens, mentally and physically, if this country is to survive- at the moment there are far too many bleeding heart liberal types around and the country is fucked⌠I donât care what people say, if you let people do what they want in this life it ends in disaster, we are selfish creatures⌠we need to be dictated to, to a degree, both for the good of ourselves and the human race.

Ah yeah, parents are very good at that, blaming some one elseâŚi wouldnât be a teacher for a million bucks⌠iâve a number of friends who are and the shit they get from parents who think their little Billy/Fiona are special and should be more advanced etc. etc. IâD LOVE TO BEAT SOME OF THESE CUNTS WITH AN IRON BAR.
