Its Friday, I love Friday's. Off to work now, I'll look in later.
Just noticed are we talking birthdays????
This little princess has one fast approaching.....<looks at calendar to check>..yes I was right.....<checks passport for year of birthday....starts counting fingers and toes>.... I turn 25 tomorrow....does this mean I have to start to grow up????
Just been out for my lunch time plod. Got soaked through, stacks of dirt all over me. On the bright side at least I managed to extract myself from the office for an hour.
PPB, tomorrows a great day to have a birthday on. Get yourself down to the beer shop, but a couple of crates of larger. Get settled on the sofa in the afternoon with a couple of mates and watch the FA Cup Final
Later
FA CupFinal....Forest aren't anywhere near it so-pah! Only thing from beer shop for me will be lemonade (this princess doesn't drink) The plan is for parental unit to visit along with sibling and the latest love of her life!
Pre-invasion I have my long run planned!
I actually like running in the rain-means no fighting for pavement space and keeps you cool! I also like puddle jumping ;o)
How long is your long run? Usually do mine tomorrow as well (15 to 20 miles early AM)but started a taper cos I'm racing next two weekends so extra speed session and shorter runs for me.
Do you run in wellies??
I don't run in wellies but do possess a fetching green pair from my university degree days (I am a geographical scientist).
By long run at the moment I mean by time..I am still building up...just a wee sort of a beginner'. Not upto the 15-20miles yet!!That will come over the next 4months as doing the Windsor half in September!!!!ARRRGGHHHHH!!!!!

Still don't quite believe I am taking part in a half marathon!This time last week I wasn't!
Princess, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, hope your run went well this morning. Certainly a nice time to be out. Have a super day.
Caramac, went to pics last night and saw Van Helsing. Brilliant special effects - even made me jump. Got a bit of a shock when there wern't many seats left.
No running today but have managed to sneak in a round of golf bright and early this morning. Have a good'un.
Sodahead, i may have to go and see VAN helsing now, like a good gothic horror!
tryingto run later, at present children trying to construct something in garden for rabbits to play on!! out tonight for sedate retirement do for one of our consultants!! must remember to talk posh!
with regard to your earlier question.
Growing older is compulsory
Growing up is optional :0)
Have a good one.

PPB x x x x
<twirls again and sprinkles fairy dust on exit>
Anyways, sound like you have had a great time.
I downing gin & orange - get the drunk effect and vit. C as well.
What a super morning. We are off to Whitby for the local club junior training session (all ready been out golfing). I can get a very useful speed session out of these juniors. My youngest daughter can give me a run for my money over 400m or less.
Enjoy the day :-)
How was Whitby? another of my favourite places, our cat was called whitby jet!
glad you had agood birthday Princess
Wonder how mick got on in wonderful wonderful copenhagen!! is it still standing!
Sounds like a useful retirement bash caramac. Had a few too many myself on Saturday night and went off on a bit of a tangent on the daily training thread and that effected my running on Sunday.
Whitby was fab however, overnight at the school where we train one of the wooden class rooms was fired which left us shaking our heads a bit. I do admire how hard the kids try in training (exception being our kid who did nothing but moan)
Off to work, lunchtime easy planned, 6/7 miles or so in the sun
later
hope you all had a better sunday than I did,
went out on my normal sunday morning route, home to the bypass, along the bypass to the dual carriageway roundabout (which is like an empty country lane on a sunday morning...sooo quiet), then back. a nice quiet plod,,,except yesterday morning found the body of an old guy laid in the side of the old railway line.
he'd been out on his mountain bike and had keeled over with a heart attack. when I found him he'd been dead for a while, police and ambulance called, the air ambulance helicopter was there within 10 mins and the doctor on board reckoned he had been dead for about an hour. police turned up in force, 8 uniform and 1 plain clothes 10 mins later.
by the time I got away from there, home, showered then down to the police station to give a statement it had taken the pleasure out of what was a lovely sunny sunday.
Sorry to unburden myself on you all but I am still a bit cut up about finding this guy like this.
Sorry you've had such an experience, but well done on getting through it.
Hope it doesn't play on your mind too much. At least the guy was found by one of the good folk in life.
