Being very disappointed at the expensive meal we just had at the Alma Inn. The meat dishes were (I'm told) all good. The vegetarian penne alla arrabiata (only veggie dish on the menu) was flabby, overcooked and tasteless. My sis and I ate less than half of our meals. We complained and still had to pay (were given a paltry 10 quid gift voucher in compensation). Not recommended at all. Grr.

EDIT: <rant>

I know how you feel - it's been a soapbox of mine for years.  Deserve much better than that.
Getting there...

I have just returned from next door.  Glass of wine later, rosy cheeks and thoughts of finding my jim jams.  Might just go with the socks for a change. :-\

Eating breakfast.  Contemplating going for a little pootle later, or a run, or a walk.

Just found a tin of Quality Street :-\  I have lost 2lbs this week so I could just have a couple.

That's only 80% as naughty, LOL!  Seriously, I reckon you need at least a week off, with an afternoon nap every day, no gym, no running, no swimming, no cycling, and at most shorter slowish walks with the dog.

You might be right.  I promise to slow down an ickle bit.  I am still waking up feeling exhausted.  Yesterday I missed my nap but shall grab a couple of hours later on. :-*

The same goes for you by the way.

It's warmed up in Liverpool, so the ice plug in the burst pipe on my balcony gave way.  Instant fountain for me, ruined ceiling for the flat below (hopefully not..)

I've cut a 700 x 23 inner tube, ran it down the main drain and then fixed it over the burst pipe with an arno strap.  It's useful being a cyclist and having bodging bits to hand  ;D

Hopefully this will hold until a plumber can get here tomorrow.  There are at least 6 leaks in the complex, I can see one flat with water cascading down it's windows from the flat above  :o

Heck Andrew, hope you manage to get it sorted very soon.  What an awful start to the new year.

I am just back from a very brisk walk, 6-7 miles.  Quite mild considering the time of year.

Need to eat now and then take a dip.

Waiting for a pizza to heat up, can't do any proper cooking.  A pile of washing up in the sink (no change there)

Good girl!!  I've been excellent this week, done very little.  The most exercise I got was a brief walk in the park to fly Johan's glider, and then back home again.  Just woken up from an afternoon nap, and I feel much better.

Just remember, all that extra rest is only going to make you stronger, not weaker!!

About to hop onto the fixer to go and fettle with Dad's computer. But currently listening to my new Seasick Steve CD.

"overhaul" it, or you can ride it.  (Jerome K Jerome)

I am off to the sofa right now.  Just a 6 mile walk with the dogs today.

Cycling tomorrow so must get some rest in now.
