Sorry, was a tad sweaty and thirty minutes behind schedule, sat and watched a speed trap on the end of the storey bridge for a while to see how much business they were doing.

I'm sensing [ ... ] key criterion and/or addressable selection criterion. (What that actually means in practice is a whole different thing, though usually it can be reflected in your application and cover letter, let alone your interview).

There, fixed that for you!

I'm thinking of trying yoga, apparently it's good for the mind/soul. Not sure how spectacularly I will fail at it, but... worth a try, right?

It's great, as is Pilates.

I don't like either, but I can hear the first coming from a child who is still learning correct past conjugation of verbs.

Unfortunately these people are adults who are earning a decent salary and their English is "functional".

Yes in my opinion 457 visas are a load of hogwash when Australians can't get a job .

I'm not sure it's possible to fail at exercising (unless you don't actually do it). It's all good. Go for it!

No apostrophe "learnt" (or "learned")

Are we really Gen Y, or do we straddle the line between generations? Either way, can't stop the broad brushing. Same deal when it comes to driving.

I think between us and the people who are going through high school now, there's a step change difference, so hard to believe we can be the same generation.

That one slipped through, I had a rough arvo...

And yes, we are Gen Y.

One that gets annoying for me is when famous people die & on social media, people type:

"Celebrity name rip"

or

"rip Celebrity name".

It's quite ok to use caps then.

RIP.

Yoga is great- there are so many different kinds you will find one that is right for you- some are just to build strength and muscles (Power Yoga I go to is 80% very strong men!) right through to really gentle stretching and "mindfulness" I've never once come of of a class and not felt ready to tackle anything! I could help point you in the right direction as to what type of yoga might work if you give me an idea of what you would like to achieve???

I can assure you it is very easy to fail at exercising!

Mindfulness / relaxation, the latter being something I've always struggled to do! I'm going with my wife on Tuesday to give it a try - I think it's Hatha.
