Morning
Lyrics: I was down at the New Amsterdam
Staring at this yellow-haired girl
I am awake due to 3 people in my ward (out of 4) being monitored for contractions, so thought I'd start the thread. Let's hope I get some of this contraction action
Walked 8km yesterday.
Think baby is waiting for the fifth test to start so today's the day (wishful thinking, but a woman can dream!)
Hope you all sleep well

Yesterday's lyrics - Let's Go Faster - Stray Cats.
Sorry you didn't get the quiet night you needed to catch up on some sleep emzap. Hope that drip isn't needed and that baby is on the move soon! Nice walking. Unfortunately Mark probably knows less about the mechanical side of cars than I do so there's no point in taking him to look with me, I need to get the village mechanic to give it the once over - hence not being able to do it until I know if I am in a position to buy it.
Glad you were able to enjoy some cricket Alehouse.
Doing well Wabo.
Physio this afternoon so Mark is taking the bus to work and letting me use his car which is a bit inconvenient for him but it's too far for me to walk when I'm tapering (around 5 miles each way) and not on a bus route (and I do not like busses - childhood trauma) and P is on lates so can't give me a lift. Mark's working from home tomorrow but typically couldn't today as there is a meeting he has to attend this afternoon. Hoping to hear from the garage this morning and sort things from there.
What: short and easy/physio
Why: sanity
Last hard: sorting the car saga
Last rest: 27/7
Lyrics - familiar but I can't name them.
Good work Wabo, Giselle 5! noooo.
LmH - hope the car get's sorted - very frustrating
Emz- stay sane!
What - U11 coaching, and if timings work, I should get time for 5k with 8x100s beforehand
Why - routine and taking advantage..
last rest - last Friday
last hard - Tuesday
lyric - want to say yes
No surprise that Emz set the lyrics...and no surprise that I don't know them!
Hope the 5th Test does the trick, Emz!
Trust you hear about your car this morning, LMH.
What: fitness suite this evening
Why: planning to go to cricket again during the day; plan may change as, unsurprisingly, it is raining.
No car news as yet Alehouse but on the plus side no rain either. Hope you get to enjoy some cricket.
I used to cycle Hazel and still have three bikes in the garage (though one of them is only fit for the turbo) but I had a bad bike accident five years ago which has left me with shoulder/back pain which riding exacerbates whether I ride the hybrid or road bike. Every time I've tried to get back on the bike it has taken two or three days of painkillers to settle it down so now is definitely not the time to try again I'm afraid.
Walked 3km this morning. I'm becoming famous in the ward for it
Lmh any car news?
And anyone heard from OH?
Hazel enjoy the short and have a good race tomorrow
lyrics no
alehouse hope the fitness suite is good
dustin have a good coaching session, yes I know 5 years!!
Emzap I so hope something is happening...
WHat: 20 min jog and one hour yoga later
why: thursday
last hard: last night
last r est: 31/12/16
OH dad back from hospital to care home, phew
Have you decided on a name yet emzap? I'm hoping that things start to move on for you and that they go quickly once they do! I called the garage but they are still waiting to hear back from the engineer and don't know when that will be - may not even be today <<sigh>>
If it were I, I would be phoning the insurance company and ask to speak with someone high up, LMH! Insurance is there for this sort of eventuality and I don't feel that they are honouring their part of the contract.
Went to cricket this morning for a couple of hours: not terribly pleasant sitting there in the strong breeze that seemed to be find every corner of the ground. Grey and cool again in the breeze: a fair percentage of spectators in gloves. I forgot mine. Have come back to watch the test: hope you are able to concentrate on it, Emz! Also have the Lancashire game on on the laptop!
Checking in late hoping to find baby and car news but it looks like I haven't missed anything …
Hazel: I did that minor speedwork run at lunchtime today and I was struggling too. It was rather warm, quite windy and I had to dodge a million tourists on my way to the 100m track. At least the little park with the track was empty.
Hope the cricket is fun, ale.
You're sooo busy with your extended family, wabo! Fingers crossed you can get the long run done this WE.
Really busy at work again … sigh. I was here for nearly 12 hours yesterday and today doesn't look much better but at least I had a lunch break and some fresh air today.
What: 5 miles with strides
Why: taper plan
Last hard: everything feels too hard at the mo … please, can I have my legs back?
Last rest: 9/9
Lyrics: no
I just don't see what I could achieve other than causing myself more stress Alehouse? It's not the insurance company holding things up.
Any more contractions, em?
Lmh feel for you re the car
No news from emzap
No yoga for me, I'm looking after the girls while my daughter does it. Did a 20 mins run and really had fun! There's a loop all round where my daughter lives and it's .4 of a mile so I made it faster each time I went round.
Made a nice change to trick the legs!
Early morning sea swim then more interior painting and clearing up front garden (after builders)
schnell reps at track last night
A lot of jobs long overdue on house front.
ladt hard: disimpacting drains
lyrics no
Hope to do 50th parkrun on Saturday - May need to make some cake tomorrow
Everyone else is going so much faster, I'm getting jealous now!
Managed to do a decent session in the fitness suite, pushing it a little on both the cross trainer and the rower. Wouldn't say it was schnell, though, OH!
