    The dress was only £9 from primark so even better bargain.....I've a sore foot, I need the dress image


    Ooh, you lucky thing ... I rarely venture into Primark as I can't stand the queues, but I did buy a dress from there once and I've never been so complimented on a dress before ... and it was only about a tenner too.

    Just got a gorgeous sleeveless linen dress from Next Online ... can't wait to wear it - hopefully soon judging by the weather.

    And do you think since I've sore muscles but no compression tights that Super Skinny jeans will do the job as well as?

    As for GeeGees.....i'll go for MAJESTIC CONCORDE!!   Coz it was!!!!!  (miss seeing it, and now i'll never get the chance to go on it)

    Seeing Concorde in formation with the Red Arrows, was an image i shall never forget.  *sighs*  (we used to live near Brands Hatch, and they would fly over our house on Grand Prix day)

    As for training.....i'm doing some serious taper training today......sunlounger out.....music on.....and cold beer, and pretzels await!!!!!

    I've just come in from the garden for a few mins, as it's pretty warm out there!!!!  LOVE IT!!!!! - Not a wisp of a cloud in Northampton today, and the gentlist of breezes.

    Can I have "because I couldn't see it"? The name tickles me for some reason...

    Beautiful day image

    Right - please stop talking about the weather. I am one of those people stuck in an office looking out on a wonderful day wishing I was the one in the garden with beer and (not pretzels) dry roasted peanuts image

    Oops - sorry phatboy. Surely it's nearly home time though?

    Just looking at my training spreadsheet, I've run not including the 800 intervals 454.57 miles so far in the marathon training! When I finish the marathon it will be just over 500miles!
