Birthday present.
Just for general wonderings…
A picture posted everyday of 2011.

Birthday present.

The dreaded ‘Red Nose Day’ at school today. Cue hundreds of crazy kids in non-school uniform running around like it’s Christmas.
It’s days like today when I am thankful that I like to run. I managed a trip to the gym at the end of the day for an hour or so on the treadmill – warm up and cool down with 5 miles in the middle – it was good to clear the head.
It was also my last run as a 48 year old – tomorrow’s my birthday! Woop woop!

Lunch. Cushty.
Not quite sure how we’ve got to the 71st day of the year, but here’s today’s picture:

The gym I go to has finally starting to update the machines. It’s a bit of an old school gym, lots of weights, lots of mirrors, and lots of machines that are slowly beginning to fall apart.
So it was quite a surprise when I discovered two new cross-trainers: touchscreens, internet connected and very swanky. I’m looking forward to some new treadmills, which are apparently, on the way.

Cambridge Corn Exchange. Matt Haig. Notes on a Nervous Planet.

‘Lee Bowyer’s red and white army!’ 🎼
A four hour duty at the Samaritans was followed by a bit of England rugby on the TV, before the highlight of the day, a very impressive three points bagged by the mighty Charlton.
