Quickie

January 10th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

Just another quick update: it’s still icy out there, but I’m keep­ing up the “doing some exer­cise” momentum. Just fin­ished another 35 minutes on the exer­cise bike, this time dis­trac­ted by The Lion, the Witch and the Ward­robe, which seems suit­ably enter­tain­ing. And remark­ably close to the original.

Any­way. It was dull enough to do, let alone talk about, so that’s my update :)

    Hi there! Just catch­ing up with all your entries since we were away for Xmas. So glad the com­bined forces of Xmas, New Year and flu weren’t enough to stop you! *cheers*

    I went out for a sed­ate walk today to get some of the pic­tures I was kick­ing myself for not hav­ing a cam­era to take on Sat­urday, along the towpath by the Sihl. Was passed by a num­ber of run­ners, one of whom was wear­ing shorts. Short shorts. Mad­ness. I’m reas­on­ably sure of my foot­ing with a flat sur­face, com­pacted snow and my hulk­ing great water­proof hik­ing books, but you wouldn’t have caught me run­ning on any­thing around here. And yes, I was totally bundled up with t-shirt, jumper, jeans, scarf, hat, gloves and huge woolly coat. Shorts… *shudders*

    The pho­to­graphy is good, and David was snow­board­ing last week­end! (hint, hint)

    Hope you’re feel­ing better!

      Yes, I’ve seen some pretty crazy people jog past me as I was pick­ing my way care­fully across the ice. I think they must have shoes bred from gecko DNA. I am temp­ted to go, get some advice and maybe buy some shoes that’ll cope well with it, and give it a go, but (a) I’ll prob­ably hurt myself, and (b) I’m sure all the snow will be gone in a week, _especially_ if I spend £80 on shoes good for snow…

      Hint noted, m’dear, but I’m crazy busy at the mo!

      And yes, feel­ing much bet­ter now. Bit tired, but that’s about it.

      *hugs*
