NDG just want to say I hope it is remedied soon!
Not the ideal time of year to have a problem with the gas supply!:(

Spent the last week & a half watching all the Harry Potter films again (though I missed a big chunk of the very last one owing to an urgent phone call). Really enjoyed them!

Trying to do a bit more reading.

Went shopping yesterday for picture frames (for pics I was given for my birthday, in October!:o). Got some nice simple frames. 2 of the pics fit perfectly. One of the pics is on a board & is just a tiny bit too big:mad:. Gotta work on a way to trim it down.

Walked to work again today, as it was a lovely morning. This is my way at trying to exercise better. I really need to do stuff to keep some fitness levels up & improve how active I am. I am walking an hour here, & an hour back. Building up to doing that 5 days a week.

I'm trying to walk for half an hour each day.

Hey ho nice peeps. Am on little netbook for mo as work being done on laptop. Think it will be a couple of weeks so not so much posting. Thank goodness for backup, unfortunately my eyes aren't up to much and I have trouble seeing screen and typing on this. Good to see new thread up and running - thanks Lydia. I didn't get anywhere close on what car silver drives. Good luck with DH coming home eves lir!

Since we got westie, we walk quite a lot.
Half an hour in the morning, half an hour after work and half an hour before bed. I'm definitely in a much better shape than before we got him, but still somewhat overweight...

I walk dogs most days twice...once somewhere public, once accross the fields. Still keep getting fatter. Grrrrrre.


Have been trying to image shack or tiny pic photos but ironically the media friendly it provider doesn't seem compatible with image sharing using anonymous media. There is probably another one I could use but who knows. I haven 't worked out iCloud yet, and doubt that is incognito

This is why I'm doing it too.
I realised that I wasn't doing much that can be classed as physical activity. I used to do a lot of walking. That seems to have slipped away, so I'm trying to get back into it.
I used to play badminton once a week too, & that fell by the wayside, as I have no-one to play with.:(

I used to love badminton at school! I have had no one to play since. I'm probably not up to it now.

Well, while You were typing that Dh has had another offer in firm, another dept but related to what he does, and something he gave a press interview on recently.

At least it looks like with one or the other options we won 't have a gulp moment with the mortgage soon.:o

Don't they have a turn up and play at a leisure centre near you? There's one down here, H has been (albeit twice, though that's more than the gym)

Walking is great - you'll soon start getting that Vitamin D you've been missing, two birds with one stone there.
