Morning! Just beat me to it, Birks!
Lyrics: seem familiar...so that's a no!

What: rest
Why: QofP this evening, plus don't want to over do things.

Last night saw 31 minutes slow, although it nearly didn't happen...had only been running one minute when I caught my foot on some metal, fell...and rolled into a stream! I'm sure it would have been funny to the casual observer, but fortunately there weren't any! The runner I was with couldn't see where I had gone! No harm done, apart from somewhat muddy and scratched. Could have been worse. "Pick yourself up, dust yourself down, and start all over again", went through my mind, and I did. Good job the stream was low: only muddy and wet on one side, as was I...from head to toe!

Yesterday's lyrics: "Come Fly With Me", Sinatra.

No exam marking today: working shortly.

Great report, OH! Far too tough for me! So much for tapering for a marathon!

Morning!

Lyrics are: If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay

Just back from taking daughter to the airport: no, she isn't flying to Bombay, just Spain. Lucky girl is staying with a family near Madrid unti June 7th and teaching in a secondary school there as part of her course.Would be nice to fly away from a very damp morning: mizzle, in fact.

What: 20 mins plus
Why: consistent consistency

Yesterday's lyrics were "Nothing Rhymed", Gilbert O'Sullivan, which includes yesterday's clue, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained", which I quite often say when running!

Today's lyrics are the second and third line, with the first being the title.

Back to marking!

Afternoon!

Decent run/walk Emz.

What: 25 mins run, just over 6 mins/k I think. Garmin kept losing signal. Half off road along river bank and then back along the road on the other side of the river. Then half an hour walk.
Why: Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

OH: do you kayak to Skye?!

Grey weather-wise all day, and heating is on still.

Lyrics: there are clues above.

Morning!

Just finishing marking for the day!

Lyrics: If I give up the seat I've been saving
To some elderly lady or man

What: Hopefully 25 mins slooow
Why: Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Hope the day is a miserable wet one. selfishly: perfect for marking!

Wabo: was cheering Newcastle and Everton on! Although they say the table doesn't lie, I don't think your team got the rub of the green over the season.
