Got to think of a Halloween themed costume I can run 10k in for the start of November. Will involve some making but strictly at an amateur level.

Black Nore 10k done. Yikes that was hilly! Weather wasn’t too bad in the end but today’s challenge was a massive stitch. Not had one of those for years. Enjoyed the traily sections and the views, not so much the running (walking) up hilly roads 😂

At a National Trust house and this gate looks magical

Not really into football that much these days but not sure the picture goes with the story 🤔
New headline reading: “LIVE Man City found guilty of majority of 115 financial rule breaches
The club, which denies all wrongdoing, is accused of breaching the Premier League's financial rules between 2009 and 2018.”

Half way through the first series of ER now. Some of it (including attitudes) is quite dated but still enjoying it. Not sure I’ll make it through all 15ish series though.

Back from Liverpool. Managed to pack lots in. Walking tour, a ferry on the Mersey with added unexpected party, couple of cathedrals, some nice food, a lot of walking in general and a visit to the Western Approaches HQ museum. Hotel location was a bit noisy but convenient. Need to catch up on sleep 😴

Thought I’d try claiming for a delayed train. To get compensation you have to be delayed by 30 minutes or more. They claim it was 29 minutes. Not worth arguing over but…

Train arrives in at 17:36 and next train I have to catch is at 17:34… classic train travel.

Off to Liverpool this weekend. Should probably plan what I want to see. So far just a walking tour and see a cathedral.

Carl heard the noise on the other side of the curtain and sighed. This time last year he was fighting for the world title in Vegas. How had he plunged so far? As he contemplated his life choices he heard his cue: “You may know him as that dreamy boxer Carl but tonight…” #IncludePlungeBoxerDreamy

Hearing little snippets of conversation as people walk past is one of life’s little joys. Some leave you with a terrible cliffhanger you’ll never know the answer to and some like today’s are whether someone is happy with sausage and pasta this evening, and if so do we have pasta, onions? Wine?

Ok so my “it’s nearly jumper weather” comment was a bit premature. Warm run needed an ice cream!
Me with a “I’m quite warm” look on my face wearing a yellow tshirt. I’m holding an ice cream with a scoop of vanilla and a scoop of cherry cheesecake ice cream. In the background are some buildings and a blue sunny sky.

The only way out now was through the revolving door and out into the darkness beyond. Behind her she could hear the wails of whatever creature she had awoken. Any attempt to battle it would be uneven and inevitably lead to her demise. Why did she offer to come in here? #IncludeOfferDoorUneven

Two 5k races this weekend was a bit much in the end especially as the second one was hilly. Firmly on the sofa now!
Me in a bright yellow tshirt holding a race medal. The medal has a picture of a small priory on it. In the background is very dry grass and hills in the background.

Picked some goji berries on the weekend. Tried some on the weekend in wraps and today I’m putting some in flapjacks. I think the wraps will end up being more successful…

Late showing of The Odyssey last night (enjoyed it overall and could mostly detach from all the stars in it) then up at 5 today for balloons. Quite tired now and might have a nap 😴

Gone and taken a parcel for a neighbour again. Not sure it gets them the parcel any quicker as I always have to hunt them down in the end… would people in general rather just rearrange delivery themselves? 🤔

I think advertising on Instagram is purely designed for me. Just bought a ticket for Ash as they are in Bristol in November. A band I haven’t heard for many years!

Wondering which is more likely. Opening a pack of pills at the right end or getting a usb in first time?

Apart from the T-Rex arms I quite like this race photo of me (usually pulling some kind of face!)
Early evening on a grassy track with the odd tree dotted around. The sky is blue with some tiny white clouds. Running on the track is me on the left wearing a blue t-shirt being followed  by another runner.

This weekend was a much more acceptable temperature. If we could have this as a maximum for the summer now please. My legs have started to tan which is unheard of apart from that one time in New Zealand.

Tonight’s run was a bit warm and hilly but nice views
Lots of people running up a path with yellow grass either side. Blue sky with a few fluffy white clouds and in the distance a yellow mansion on a hill surrounded by trees.

Atrexus, a dragon with mainly plain features bar piercing red eyes, swooped down and landed on a church spire. Being a creature people generally feared he could land where he wanted. He needed to rest for a while to restore some energy before continuing the journey. #IncludeRestoreCreaturePlain

Not sure whether to watch The Odyssey. Feel like the number of famous actors will distract from any story.

Each corner was a nervous moment. Archibald didn’t know whether the next turn would be his last. He stuck a nervous shoe around and stepped forward. Nothing. Phew. He could feel the drips of sweat running down his forehead where they united again at his eyebrows. Onwards! #IncludeTurnShoeUnited

Never really got into the habit of reading books. Not sure whether it’s a concentration thing or it never really just stuck but just been reading Slow Horses and it’s been rather good.
