For the next hour, I shall be digging and shovelling stones/ gravel and dirt in the garden. We've had 2 big sheds removed and I need to dig deep enough to put topsoil down for turf. Any ideas what I can log this as in my diary?

Cheers!

    WWW.healthstatus.com has a good calorie burn calculator for odd things. Snow shoveling is probably pretty close. 413 calories per hour for weight of 150. Good luck. Sounds like you may be a bit sore tomorrow.

    Thanks - says 312 for me, so will put 200 to be on the safe side :-)
