My gran passed away today at 90. Last year I discovered she once rejected marriage from a man as "he was a bit keen" (he cycled from Athy to Peamount (50km) to visit her in hospital regularly). As one of her 60+ descendants, I'll never again judge a woman for being particular.

This might seem counter-intuitive but gyms are a highly controlled environment and represent 0.2% of covid outbreaks in Ireland to date. The mental health benefits outweigh the risk imo.
