Wishing you all the best for 2013.

We saw the New Year in at home with elder eaglet and his partner, younger eaglet was partying in town with friends. They stayed the night as eaglet was catching the train to London to run the New Years Day Serpentine 10k, which he does most years. He came 7th (6th last year), but got a PB........33.49! That's my boy!

I went out and did a lone hard 6 mile on road hill session, lots of relatively short, sharp ones with little or no flat respite in between. Worked hard, pleased with no stops and average pace.

As RE says wishing you all the best for 2013.

Had a good night out with my two daughters and their families last night haf lovely sparkly high heels in - so unusual for speedy - hubby was working Haven't had a good day as him and I haven't spoken all day. All to do with son in law. Long story. My New Years dinner consisted of 2 slice of toast and a bottle of wine. Well I wasn't going to cook for him. Stuff that.

Ok let's move on.

My goals for this year are as follows:-

Lose the 5 lbs that I still needed to get to last years goal - I gained a few pounds at Xmas

Lose another 3stone
Complete a half and full marathon

AND

Meet up with you all.

Agreed?

You don't know what you're letting yourself in for with that wish-list Speedy!
The weight loss will be the easy bit. Meeting up with the southerners will be the scary bit!

I've got annual leave today. Back to the grindstone tomorrow.

Took Dawg for a beach runette this morning. It's really hard work running on sand!
Presumably I'm now allowed to slob all afternoon with the remnants of the choccies and posh biscuits, yes?

Oh yes you are Limper. Enjoy.

Now folks I know I am still well overweight but remembering I have lost just short of 3st can someone tell me why my pine bed frame broke last night

The bed is about 14 years old. I have had a couple of new mattresses in that time but to break the frame!!! And before your minds work overtime we were both sound asleep when it broke.

Been out and priced new frames today but hubby going to try fix it first.

I did manage to buy lots of baby clothes in the sales for Keelen. He is growing fast and is now 8 weeks old.

People like us have to go to w*rk occasionally Tippy because we are the important and vital members of our teams and things would fall apart without us. Also it gives some structure to our day.
Although TBH I'd be just as happy to stay at home!

Hope you slept well last night Speedy?!

I did thank you Limper.

I would like to retire. Unfortunately 6 more years before I can do that.

I'm not sure Tippy. Looks like he's getting a pigy back but is too heavy for the poor chap. Is it you?!

Eagle sweetie - I must apologise... both my last two posts have been a touch sparky. You know I don't mean it and that I love you hugely

Limper
I think you might be right.
Poor man (the photographer that is)
