    Sorry to hear Sampsa, hope you get better quickly.

    Maybe your body thinks it's still in HK?

    My body got one hell of a shock too. From 36'C in HK to 6.5'C in Australia when I arrived - it sucked. After a solid 12hr sleep I feel much better

    I ended up drinking all night and getting on the plane in a pretty average state. The only way I avoided the hangover was by just keeping drinking - not ideal Thank fully I was never sick

    Drunken benching well below zero!

    1. The first rule of Bench Club is, you do not talk about Bench Club
    2. The second rule of Bench Club is, you do not talk about Bench Club
    3. If someone says stop, goes limp, taps out, the the benching is over
    4. No bummers in the batcave, apart from unkie dave
    5. One Bench at a time
    6. No air, no water
    7. Benching will go on as long as they have to
    8. If this is your first night at Bench Club, you have to Bench
