Morning all.
Difficult day in sunny Spain as we have to take the dog for an operation to remove a ‘mass’ from her ear.

At least we can sit in the sun while we worry ;)

Thank you all. I welcome the opportunity to not get points, but really resent the tone of the communications so far which seem designed to scare. If you are removed like that chap you have to do it again.

Hope doggy is OK, Sarah (())

I also did a speed awareness course a few years ago, 36 in a 30 zone just before it went from 30 to 40. I learned a lot and I think I'm a better driver now.

Hope pooch is OK Swoo.

Serendippily is there any way any of us can help with group admin while you're so busy? Adding races etc?

A lovely 5 miler done this morning. 12 degrees, overcast, hardly any breeze. Racing conditions! But I ran really easy pace. Sports massage tonight, first for years, just to have a service/MOT of the legs.
um

Don't worry dipps (()) I can't keep up with it all these days either, and I'm a retired person. :)

SW, hope your doggy's ok.

Nice R/W with niece this morning then I had my chiro session at lunchtime. Hope it does the trick, although I had started to improve a bit anyway. Always good to have some maintenance from time to time. I'll book myself in for a follow up massage in a few weeks, once I'm running a bit more and after my holiday.

A total of over 3 hours to the appalling child maintenance service this afternoon means I have done nothing that I needed to do. Was hung up on twice for no reason, once after nearly 2 hours of trying to get put through to the right person. I've never known such a mess of an organisation. Hopefully got everything sorted but missed out on an afternoon at our Postcard Show which had it's first day. :-(
