@geordiegirl good to hear from you. It must be frustrating but take the time off. Well done HS it was very wet out there this morning. |

11.8 miles clocked today - that was hard in the wind and after a week not doing a lot - taking me to 254.

Jack: Japan, that's giving me travel envy. Hope you have a wonderful time. I'm fortunate enough to have been but retirement isn't to far away for Mrs Donnie and I, all things being equal (and healthy) it'll be our first big trip. GG: Great to read your comments, take care and continue to recover well. 5km on the TM yesterday afternoon, Bob Harris on BBC radio 2 'sounds of the 70s' for company. Should be out on the road after work later today. I'm not on the 100 miles per month thread although have an eye on that target - need to be at 210 by the end of the week. YTD: 192.8 |

Thank LL, I was wetter and mud splattered this morning, worse than on Saturdays parkrun which was 95% on grass. Well done Peter and Donnie1 for your runs. Whispering Bob Harris is a legend. The sun 🌞 is shining now, typical 🙄 |

My son and I are now in Estonia, on the way back to the UK as half term is over. @Donnie1 life in Russia is strange at the moment, as is life in Kharkiv in Eastern Ukraine, where another part of our family lives, while some of the Ukrainian family are with my parents in Devon, so scary and strange all over for the last three years and very worrying these last few weeks. Needs a longer post to cover everything though. @JackFW it is a long way from 30 degrees though it has been getting warmer these last couple of days. On Sunday the parkrun course was really icy having melted and refrozen so glad we ran on Saturday. Once the snow starts to melt it goes from magical to muddy really fast. The apple is a magic apple from fairy stories. Baba Yaga uses a magic apple for all sorts of things, so it's a regular feature. The effort to do codes on apples for over 170 participants is amazing! |

Oh I missed the bit about Japan, we adored Japan we went with my cousin and her 2 kids in 2018 & we really want to go back to do an adult trip, as things we would do the kids wouldn’t have managed. Thanks for the welcome back I’ll try not to be an impatient stranger. |

Good to hear from geordiegirl! Had the worst day. Saw big puddle on road, but watched 4 cars go through it no problem so was happily pootling slowly through it when a 4x4 came barrelling through in the opposite direction causing a veritable tsunami. My car died  RAC were useless, so waited for Husbando to come and help push car out of worst of puddle - all the time cars happily speeding past me through the water. Car is probably a write off. Got bus to jury duty

I love my car. It was the first car that I’d ever owned from new. It was an indulgence that I bought for my 50th birthday. Will find out later this week if it can be saved.

That's dreadful news MrsB, I do hope that your car won't be written off. What is the insurance position? Hopefully, if you have comprehensive coverage, you will be able to submit a claim. The usual Tuesday Farmers Walk this morning in bright sunshine. Typical on a non running day. I've got a hearing test this afternoon. The test is free, and there is only a charge if ear wax etc has to be removed. |
