    Pink - sounds like that little doggy needs confining at night time to save any more nights like that.

    Walked DH to the station this morning, he's gone for a client lunch somewhere sw anky in London....and wouldn't let me tag along....so unfair! He's in the London office most of next week too so I might see if I can sneak up with him for a mooch.

    Decided to go one better than a sw anky lunch and walked home via the beach, huge 99 with strawberry sauce and a paddle along along the sand...was bliss.

    The ironing pile looks so unattractive now though.

    How did the date go by the way - was away this weekend and missed all the gossip :o

    Good luck with the run!

    The date on Friday was crap - well no, that's not true, I liked him, but he dumped me. :(

    And then on Sunday, still feeling mightily fed up (and being pestered by Shrek who seems to pick the worst possible moments to get in touch), I went for coffee with someone, barely made any effort because I didn't want to go, was actually crying in the car on the way there because I thought it would be awkward and horrible, and ended up having a lovely afternoon, and we are seeing each other again!

    I've just had a power cut for nearly an hour, what a pain in the bum, might go off again they think :mad:

    I did an hour on Active and am now shattered, an hour reading helped chill me out though.
