Thansk for the response. I do 15 min walk (power walk really as I am always running late in the mornings) to the bus stop every morning so in some ways I do some excercise I guess! I also spend my lunchtime on some days (1 hour) walking around the City, window shopping. I also took up swimming lessons (am learning how to swim) about 3 weeks a go which I do on Sundays. I was thinking more of a 'routine'where I go for daily walks with my partner in the afternoons... I didn't think it would be a strain on my body but will check with doc.
