Strictly Blogging

After only 7 months we have finally reached the final!! What are they going to do with all the small children who have been in the audience all this time?

So, given all the news from friends in the Lytham Mens’ Health Group, I’ve been thinking about how I react to my medical problems. I do this by setting targets. Not always big ones, and I try to make them attainable. I don’t try to make them easily attainable, but I’m not going to set myself a target of climbing Everest, cos I’m never going to be able to achieve this.

Unusually, I found my next but one target (after the walking one in January in the news. Yes, I’m going to stand as an MP!!!!!………………………… No I’m not. But I AM aiming to be alive in 2034, because I want to be able to boycott the World Cup in Saudi Arabia. I’m fairly often disgusted with the FA, but this put the top hat on it. What a stitch up. That the FA can support this without a whimper leaves me speechless…….. nearly. And as for that lady from the FA to come out and tell us how Saudi Arabia’s human rights record has impproved and will improve further………. well please!!

Anyway, its nice to have an aim in life.

So, after 5.5 hours, Strictly is still droning on, so it’s back to the coffee and brandy (Carlos 1 Solera Gran Reserva from Amontillado Casks)

    Thursday morning looked a bit iffy on the north coast so we headed south to Auray, where we made an interesting discovery.

    Just back from 14.6 mile (23.5km) training walk. A local one, so a bit flat, but enjoyable all the same. Both our new boots seem to be shaping up OK, although we’re both feeling the increased weight of the boots towards the end of the walk. Heather discovered while reading a book or forum or…

    We’re just back from a couple of days in Clitheroe. It’s a lovely town and it’s only 40 minutes away from us. I was bought a night in The Spinning Block Hotel, which is part of the Holmes Mill complex, for my birthday last November and we finally managed to take advantage of my very…

  • Stocks Reservoir

    Got out yesterday in the Forest of Bowland. Beautiful countryside and we took a well loved walk around Stocks Reservoir from Slaidburn. Slaidburn is festooned with signs warning of the passage of the Tour of Britain bike race on Monday. I’d really love to get up there to watch but, sadly it can’t be done….
