In Memory of Ivan

Salaam,

Ladies and Gentlemen its happened.

After 5 months of eating the most unhealthy food i could find, doing absolutely nothing which would could be classified under "healthy", taking part in no sports whatsoever and thus leading me to gain TEN kg in weight, i have joined a gym.

Now lets not get carried away here. When i say "gym", i use it in the loosest sense of the term...but then again im paying 3pounds fifty per month so i suppose i shouldn't have expected much more.


But yes, Ivan, it has happened, im back in the Gym. Obviously it wont be the same without you, how could it...? I remember fondly the days in Cambridge...constantly being late in meeting up with you, the many times i gave up half way through and let you carry on on your own and constantly beiong interupted to take business calls... ; )

Many tried to set up rival training groups and failed. Miserably. Others tried to join us (Rizla) but could not keep up with the pace. And from the many training groups that were there at the beginning, it was you and i who survived untill the end.

So this entry dedicated to you is the least i can do to show you my appreciation. I was also thinking of putting up "The Picture" (you know the one im talking about..the one Baqs sent out...LOL) so people can see the face behind the name, but i feared i would be inundated with requests for your details from admirers so am not doing so.

May Allah grant you all that is best for you and keep at a distant all that is harmful for you,

Yours,
Gunter (or was i Ivan...? Lol)
