Gosh Linds it sounds horrible.
I was beating myself up about ‘wimping out’ of my bike ride this morning. So I took the dog out to recce part of the route and I made absolutely the right decision.

Definitely a good decision HP!
Need to grill chicken and boil some eggs before I do the dishes. Have briskly walked and run/walked today, so I don't plan to do much else!

Did some outside work. Cleaned out the rabbit hutch, swept the patio and the drive, did some weeding and relocated a plant.
I haven’t run yet.

Linds sorry to hear that. That does sound scary.
I've been mistaken for a Russian prostitute once in Turkey but a bloke in the group I was travelling with soon put the fella straight.
It's bloody awful that so many of the women on the thread have our own stories to chip in just from going about our business.

Thanks all. I hadn't made the connection with the Northala Fields incident, LD - which is very worrying (the NF incident). I was about two miles away and would struggle to give a description as he was behind me for the entire incident. He came level with me when I was crying, and then dropped back. I thought he was being considerate as I was obviously upset, but actually he was just waiting until we were somewhere lonelier, I think, before approaching me.
Definitely a good decision, HP

I then decided to cross the road to where it's better lit and there are houses, but didn't realise how muddy and steep the verge was, so slid and slipped my way into the road. Luckily no cars were coming. It's comical now, but it wasn't at the time.

Mean, horrid actions, putting you in fear, LindsD. What about an alarm, or a whistle?
