    Maus - that looks like an amazing run

    DLR - sounds exactly like an injury I had - it did go away after about 3 weeks,  but I did not rest completely during that time.

    DLR - ouch. You're going through the wars. Can a physio / doctor help or is it rest only?

    If I get too drink tonight I might offer the magnificent MM a place to stay in Shrewsbury. I'm not, however, sure how this will sit with the wife just yet. But these hurdles wouldn't have stopped Dennis hopper!!!!!

    (only joking. You don't need to apply for a restraining order just yet)

    I can behave. Just ask DLR.

    I think I'm nearing heaven.....

    Dan: It's spectacular! I've avoided doing it for a while because I'd got it into my head that it was super hilly. But it's really not. I wasn't feeling the best today and I found it a very easy, cruisy run.

    Actually, people not going for PBs could do characters from an old movie

    They could.

    But they could also dig their eyes out with rusty spoons.

    Maus. And dress-ups. Do not mix.*

    Feeling a bit more positive about everything today, which is a bloody good job a only a week until I leave a 11 yr old in charge for 2 weeks......What will I come home to?!?!image

     

    Kaz - Have I read that right?

    So... Jimbob and Radar Sal are the potty mouthed imaginary godparents, RR's the fairy godmother, Maus is the naughty godmother who teaches them bad habits (and for the record, I was quite flattered when you thought I could be capable of bagging someone of Emmy's calibre), Danni's the exciting uncle who has cool adventures and Jus T's the totes amazeballs cousin Down Under.

    Come to think of it, everyone on the thread should be imaginary godparents - you're all great role models and all-round top people.

    Danni - That trip sounds fantastic. Not sure it took much arm-twisting to get DV to drive your car for you. Altho I'd be terrified in case I broke it. Great wedding pic too.

    Maus - That runs looks fantastic.

    DLR - Sorry to hear, hope it sorts itself out quickly.

    TD - Is Yan coming along on ITLR?

  • Options

    Weedy: It's just near Douglas, so we can easily go along there on the Isle of Maus weekend. Or you just have to come back some other time...

  • Options

    And Weedy:

    What's this 'capable of bagging somebody of Emmy's calibre' business?

    Bunkum.

    You're fabulous.

    I'm hoping yesterday was a warning shot and a bit of massage/icing/taping/rest will do the trick and nip it in the bud.

    Yes, will make an appointment for next time I have a weekday at home - in about a week!

    This reminds me - I'll let you have the 'naughty nurse' outfit back.  I just don't think I have the legs to carry it off.  Don't worry - it's been in on a boil wash.

    Maus - nope. They did that in 1913 as it was a competition to find the best cars of that time. We on the other hand, are on a quest to find the best wine / beer / food !

    Dan: Good to see you've got your priorities right!

    The wiff is 68.2 miles away and is having a pop at me being in the pub. I've been on eBay and I reckon I could get at least 4 bags of sand and 3 camels for her. North Wales needs camels.

    Evenin' all. DLR - that sounds like a pain. Hopefully you're right and you caught it in time. Maybe because you've been having problems with the other foot it's changed your gait and you're now stressing that one?

    I couldn't help noticing the article in the Guardian yesterday about 'how to dress for  a British summer holiday'. And that most of the comments underneath said, in effect, 'wear a vest' image.

    Plans are afoot for a continental meetup image.

     she has had a GPS tracking device fitted to me so she knows where me and my border collie are at any given moment. Return to sender!

    James,

     

    many years ago while visiting Jerusalem the future MrsD took a camel ride. The camel owner, after she dismounted the camel, asked me how many camels I'd trade for her. Being the jocular type, I answered "20".  "Done" he says, and reaches for her. I laughed, but he did not. In fact, it got quite ugly pretty quickly! MrsD reminds me of that day from Time to time image

    Dannirr - brilliant!

    Maus - what a stunning run! Even if it was hilly I reckon the view would make it worth it image

    James - surely you haven't left the pub yet? Drunk posts! Drunk posts!

    Just left the pub. They won't serve me anymore. Am very sad.
