Breaking News: mother & daughter caught cheating….

Egg-streme Cheating

Mother and daughter caught cheating at egg and spoon race.

Yesterday at a National Trust organised Easter Egg Hunt in Chartwell a mother and daughter were found to have cheated in an egg and spoon race. Jill Lawrence, 36, and mother of two, was allegedly said to have sellotaped her daughters egg to the spoon. The much anticipated under 6s race, the highlight of the day, had begun in good spirits, but it wasn't until the race had started that eyebrows began to be raised.

Grace (18mths), clearly unaware of the scandal that is to follow

News of the scandal broke when a young lad noticed the shiny looking surface to the egg, when his father looked closer the Sellotape was clear for all to see. “My boy has inconsolable,” said the man, who wanted to remain anonymous for fear of reprisals, “my boy has been training for weeks and then some jumped up woman appears to try to claim the glory, it's disgusting!”

Sellotape is clear for all to see

Mr E Bunny, National Trust Easter Egg Hunt organiser, had this to say, “Following reports of alleged cheating we have suspended Mrs Lawrence and her family from attending any National Trust Heritage sites and events. We are also looking into claims that the same woman may have not completed the Egg Trail but still claimed the prize,” he went on to say that, “she is the lowest of the low, and to drag her innocent daughter into her web of deceit is unforgiving.”

The local Edenbridge Police Constabulary have put out this alert:

This is just the latest in a long line of strange and worrying behaviour that includes, amongst other things, forcing children to wear bizarre bunny ears and adorning her daughter with strange pagan symbols, these pictures have recently surfaced…

This woman should not be approached. If you do see her call 999 immediately.

Janathon Day 12 and a brand new nephew….

Today was a day of two halves.

Boring bit…..

ANOTHER run in the dark, around the streets of Bourne. Although I have broken the 50 mile mark with today's run.

Today's mileage = 3.68

Janathon mileage so far = 51.47

Exciting bit….

We visited my sister and the new addition to her family, my new little nephew Stanley, 20 days old…

Grace, his big sister, was also on top form today….

 

Janathon Day 11

The end of a week at school that actually seemed to go pretty quick, considering we had various workshops and immersion days in preparation for Thursday's English exam.

So another late run in the dark. Although rather than the normal 4ish miles I've been doing lately I dropped the mileage a bit and upper the pace. Ended up doing 3.66 miles in 28 minutes, worked out at an average pace of 7.42 min/mile. I've been using RunKeeper to log the miles this month rather than using my Garmin, and when I got home I noticed I had quite unintentionally created the first runart of the month. Can you guess what it is?

When I returned home I had a lovely fruit crumble waiting for me….

Now this evening it was pretty cold out, but I was prepared, I was well wrapped up. But looking at the weather forecast or the next few days it may not be enough.

It will be an early run tomorrow as we're off down south tomorrow to visit our brand new nephew…

Today's mileage = 3.66

Janathon mileage so far = 47.79

 

Back on track….

This Christmas there has been a distinct lack of Christmas cheer about….

Having reached #26 of #decembeer and welcoming Nephew Stanley into the world I somehow managed to become infected with some superbug causing me to be laid low for the past five days. Not a beer, wine, shot or cocktail has touched my lips since then and yet I still feel rough. So today I have decided that it is in fact a LACK of beer that has caused this recent illness. So I'm back on the #decembeer train!

The chosen beer that is going to get me back on track is Fursty Ferret (#27)…

A tasty beer this, light golden in colour with a hoppy aroma and good refreshing taste. Named because rumour had it that inquisitive ferrets would sneak to the back door of the local inn and sneakily sample the local brew. Although I'd be slightly concerned for my sanity if I suggested I had seen a crowd of ferrets supping on pints of beer!
