Dipps we are ouchy foot twins again :-( I'm really sorry your PF has flared up again. My MN/bursitis has done the same, I think partly because I ran every day Friday to Monday ( though very slowly and short distances) and then made things a whole lot worse this morning. I walked too fast on today's dog walk! OH was with me, so we walked at his pace and now I'm really paying for it. :-(

I'm going to go for a swim in a bit, because that doesn't appear to cause any problems for MN.

Like Dipps, I'm beginning to think running needs to take a back seat this year.

At Schiphol sitting next to the most boring man in Europe who has been babbling inanely on his phone for 40 minutes and shows no signs of stopping. I am not even sure there is someone on thr
E other end and think he might just be pretending.

There are some metal bar things on the ceiling and I am sorely tempted to jump up to them for a couple of chinups.

I am that bored.

Pantsypants, Dipps. What did it for me with PF was not the swimming but pushing off the wall. Don't do that.

He is still talking.
Fortunately for him, weapons are banned I airports.
I am contemplating whether I can take out the toggle of my coat to strangle him.
Please.God do not let him sit near me on the plane.

I was going to say at least he won't be on a call on the plane, but I guess if there is no-one at the other end he may just keep talking into the handset.

Some excitement - a late gate change. King of boring did not follow. Hopefully going elsewhere.

And another gate change in the opposite direction plus a delay. I am in a delightful mood. (Sticks Middlemarch on headphones and sulks.)
