    At M's place....i love being here! Came last night and have spent today going shopping for food (11.19 spend and 4km walk) and just chilling out if I'm honest. Need to write up a film review but that won't take me too long :D

    c25k week 5 run 3 today - will go onto 8 min runs tomorrow which is a new, but needed challenge. And I think I'm ready for it.
    Also wandered to the shop and put the washing on, so that was a good thing :D

    Have read Doctor Faustus and it wasn't too bad, quite light surprisingly given the subject matter, and read some of the Book of Beasts - mainly poems so I should be OK to leave it. Did a bit of cross stitch but I'll get back up on that tomorrow. Cooking for me n Mike and then it's just a chilled evening in

    Mkay, now I'm home and end of my weekend,

    Time to get my !!! back into shape! Have got a bag of crisps and some choccy, I'll eat the crisps and then I'm stopping the crap eating altogether, it's killing me now and just making me worse.
    Will jog in the morning, 8 min jogs now :D and back on the Wii game. Was nice having a weekend off but hopefully it hasn't set me back
