I saw this poster at work today.
Just a glance at it and I started sniggering.
There was something about the prizes that tickled my fancy.

After completing the 10K for MND I foolishly stopped my training.
I decided to restart it during the week, I stretched just as much as I normally did. I walked 5 times further for my warm up. I went for 1 mile: jog 4 walk 2. I had a long walk to warm down.
I still managed to pull my right calf !
This was something I had when i was training regularly, the only thing that helped was going for a weekly massage.
I have changed the way that I walk so that I am stretching my calfs more and I feel a twinge with every step, this is helping me slightly but not “fast” enough. I want to get back out and do more.
Any suggestions for “better” or “more appropriate” stretches that I should do?

I have been widening the range of sites that I keep an eye on through Google Reader; my reading list is here if you are interested.
One of the recent additions to my daily reading list has been http://unclutterer.com/ a site that does what it says on the tin!

Since we had our extension built we have had continual problems with the isolator switch for the shower becoming really hot. It’s been replaced a few times. At the weekend, the whole hose was plunged into darkness and there was a puff of smike in Emma’s bedroom. One of the carers burned her hand switching the shower off.
A call to a friendly electrician revealed the source of the problem above.
Today the electricians from the builders arrived and completely re-wired the shower and replaced the main breaker.
Speedy service !

I have just realised that it has been ages since I have posted here.
It has been a fairly uneventful holiday so far. Did some decorating:
- Connor’s bedroom ceiling (he has not chosen main colours yet)
- Main bathroom
- Upstairs Hall
- Stairs
- Downstairs Hall
- Downstairs Bathroom.
All painted.
Time for a day off now.
Tomorrow, myself Connor and Sarah are off to meet Patrick McGlinchey he is the main instructor at the Backwoods Survival School.
I’ll update here with all of the things we cover.

We were supposed to be going to see the Titan Crane on the Clydebank today.
Unfortunately it was such a miserable day we never even braved out the front door.
We will try and get there next weekend instead.

Had a great day out in Linlithgow today.
Historic Scotland organised a medieval re-enactment weekend this weekend.
On display was: Jousting, swordplay, quarterstaffs, and general fighting.
The weather stayed dry and we had a great day out.
