No, when I say anal I mean ‘being anal’ the behaviour - being detail oriented borderline with maniacal and preciousness which I think invariably leads to grumpiness (mind you the grumpy part is probably a facet I have adopted from reading too much of Steve’s blog). As you might have a read in a previous post, I have become a jogging addict, with my lungs screaming out for me to take them running at least twice a week. This is an activity I do at my local gym - my local gym being the source of recent apoplectic fits. So here is what most irritates me at the gym. [...]
