Tonight’s Double Class

I did back-to-back exercise classes at the gym. Possibly not the best move in the world, but I felt the need! The new Body Step routine is fabby. I did ok, didn’t fall off the step (lol) and managed to do the advanced moves most of the way through. Body Balance was another matter…warm up [...]

Booking Holidays

One of the things that keeps me going through the year is having a holiday booked. This year, we just haven’t got around to doing it…so far. I am the not-so-fortunate owner of a timeshare (yes, I know it’s a mistake, but to explain why/how on here would take too long) and I’ve been looking [...]

Scouting for Girls

At the Shepherd’s Bush Empire
Oh my goodness, how many screaming girls??
I’ve been to a number of gigs over the years, but never have I felt so old or wanted ear plugs – as much as I did last night. The screams were soooo loud, ear plugs would have been nice! The way the girls screamed was [...]

3bts – light, sunshine, buzz

1. Though it’s never great to chop a healthy tree down, today I had a tree taken down that was dangerously close to my house, my neighbour’s house and both houses bathroom windows. I discovered my bathroom is so much brighter now – and I’m glad I painted it white. It’s a light room.
2. Stepping [...]

The Duchess in Hull

OK, so I’ve never really had an opinion on Sarah, or the way she’s handled things. For the most part I think the Royal family gets far too much scrutiny and criticism from everyone – some members of the family more than others. I sat down to watch the documentary about Sarah tackling obesity with [...]

Low Blood Pressure

So, I blogged about how my low blood pressure was making me feel wobbly. The wobbles lasted about a week in total. I don’t know what caused it, and I haven’t been able to find a distinct pattern to the feeling, but my blood pressure has stablized at around 85/53.
I went to Hi-Lo last night for [...]

3bts – prediction, a boy and oh wait, a girl

1. Debating with a friend over a lunch date…”You won’t be here on Monday, you’ll be delivering your baby” – I said confidently. My friend insisted she would be here at 12:30 to have lunch. When she didn’t get here I smiled and wished her the best for a safe delivery.
2. A little baby boy [...]

3bts – Seamless, boutique, haze

1. Good customer service from the people I bought my car from and who also service it. A seamless process from making a service appointment, to dropping the car this morning, being driven to my office, picked up again, paying for the car and finding everything shiny, clean and tidy. Ah yes, you really do [...]

On golf…

and why it’s the most frustating game on earth!
First tee yesterday after work…picture the scene…audience of about six people watching from the clubhouse – I hit the ball cleanly and straight. Wow. Second shot and I’m on the edge of the bunker…it was all downhill from there.
Second tee – an iron shot and I’m just [...]

Billy Bragg Gig

Saturday night at the Hexagon in Reading
Fantastic. He’s a great entertainer. His songs improve with age and as the years move on he tweaks the words to keep them current. The new album is really good, so hearing some of the songs live was great.
I will defintely see him again and can recommend the gigs. [...]
