Lorrie I've been sorta in your situation, always been a big guy, from playing rugby and basketball and bodybuilding
in the past year I've put fat back on and look like a slob, but have been getting back to training regularly, and once my ankles back to 100% will be starting up basketball again for a friends team.
I've never really had problems, did get the occasional sh*t talker but no one that would actually start any real trouble.
I do however know guys who are huge bodybuilders who've had trouble, but I think most of its started from them hahaha
I think most trouble makers here tend to pick on people who look weaker or if the trouble makers are in a group.
just walk around looking angry and pump the veins all the time and no one will hastle ya hahahaha

Lot of my friends are big rugby playing types. Always get hassle when a lad in a group wants to prove himself.

Hello everyone, I bet you thought I had gone back to my lurking ways,
well I have been based in London for the past month working on top of the BT tower, welding a continuous frame around the tower.
They are spending a lot of money making it into a big round tv screen for advertising, and fuck me it's bright.
Oh and this was the view.....
With God's help I'll conquer this terrible affliction.

Can't see the residents of Fitzrovia being too pleased about a giant screen on the tower ... What next, coca cola projections on the moon ?
They had started complaining before any lights had been tested, due to the banging of hammers on a night time, so in the end we had to use rubber mallets and be very gentle.
So if you are in the business of selling heavily lined curtains, now wll be a good time to start selling

I'm watching Full Metal Jacket and damn near wetting myself.
Some of the lines the Sergeant comes out with are mustard.

Excellent film.
