Happy new year all. Continuing the parkrun theme in 2026, today was my fastest of the year 😉😆😆. Actually, being sensible, my fastest for 6 months! #parkrun Have a wonderful 2026 everyone

Today is my birthday. So where am I? Birthday parkrun of course!!! #parkrun

Best parkrun of the year done. Who doesn’t love a Christmas Day parkrun #parkrun

I went to parkrun with my friend today. She mad my lil bear a Christmas jumper. He is so happy. See how happy parkrun can make you feel especially when you don’t want to go!

That was one of the wettest parkruns I have ever done!

Parkrun 450 achieved today. Quite proud of that considering I was told to stop running after number 50!

Just sat and watched Sharon and Ozzy coming home. And I’m still shattered by the death of Ozzy. 😢

Anyone else heading to London tomorrow for the Vitality 10K ? Good luck and see you there.

Thinking of completing the London classics. It will be bloody tough, but I have done the marathon, so just cycle 100 miles and swim 2 to do. Shall I or not before my body gives up??

7K run, now to start the taper for race day. Garden ready for winter, and now eating lunch. Trying to use my time off work well.

I am so down I’m struggling to get back up. So, I’m doing the decluttering as this often helps. If you have time please help keep me motivated. Right now it’s time for LK on TV then the wardrobe bekons. I’m awful at throwing this away, but I have to. Vinted and the tip I hope will do well!

I have my first road race in 10 years or so in 3 weeks. Feeling very underprepared at the moment. #running

I had a lovely day yesterday. Parkrun with friends, then my handyman did some jobs for me then off to a local free festival and met a couple of friends. Before you ask yes I made a good donation! What a lovely day. Today I’m reading my book and housework.

She has played with a fractured tibia??? She is made of steel that girl.

FFS YYEESSSSSSS. Nail biting yet again

England please score. The country are already watching through their fingers! 

YEESSSSSSS

C’Mon Lionesses

When Watching a perfect circle (Gary Numan live at Wembley) and see yourself 🤣

Shopping for diamond wedding anniversary is so hard! It’s easier to get the card from the King than it is to find one in the shops 🤣

It’s been a hell of a day. I’m off to bed.

I'm lost for words. Ozzy, my hero since before I can even remember. Black Sabbath fan all my life, and will continue to be. Oh Ozzy, sleep well. This fairy will always wear boots....

My weekend consists of DIY so climbing kitchen surfaces using poly filler etc. bet you’re all jealous now! 🤣

Been asked, again, if I want to do a doctorate. NO. NO and again NO. I am not smart enough and I will be retired before I finish….

Fourth wing. No matter how much I read I don’t seem to be getting any further along! The finish seems to be moving away. I’m enjoying it though

It’s really very painful when you talk directly to a family member and they ignore you. It’s almost 4 years to the day now they stopped talking to me. Still don’t know why 😢

Flying Scotsman. I love this beastie.

Actually out on my bike. I’m in a coffee shop sat near it and someone just walked past and said…. Nice bike that will fit in the boot!! I’m literally sat next to it…

Chimney watch is over. We have a new Pope.

WOOHOOO Iron levels high enough to donate. Blood now donated.

Watching the votes come in.

Getting to really dislike Starmer even more than I did.

I went to Rome a few years ago, and went to Mass with the Pope. You have to apply to your embassy in Rome, and if lucky get a ticket. I did. I am sadened by his death.

If anyone would like to come help me with the garden….. now is the time!

4 weeks ago I fell really badly on my shoulder while running. It still hurts but I just moved my arm and my shoulder clunked so loudly it was scary. I really hope that was a good sign of less swelling or something….

Anyone else apprehensive about the spring budget?

I had a real long drive today, the number of people on the motorway using phones is just awful. Leave them alone when you are driving.

Today has been spent crying in pain. Tomorrow has to be better right? This is more painful than my broken elbow was….

Getting my hair washed tomorrow. Seriously just cannot wait. I can’t do it myself right now due to my stupid shoulder. Sometimes, just sometimes living on your own sucks

I can actually move my arm about 2CMS more than I could yesterday.... C'Mon shoulder... get better.

I think I may sit in the garden and read my book.

So fed up.

The earth has shifted and it feels as though it’s on a fine balance. I worry about the future right now, what does it hold?

A day full of throwing away stuff and jobs I have put off for a long time. But despite the amount now ready for the top and a full recycling bin and 2 bags why does it look no different 🤷‍♀️

Looks like I need a whole new heating system…. Bugger.

That was a few interesting days!

Been feeling down today. Went for a walk and sat on a bench. As soon as I sat a Robin sat next to me and sang a song then sat on my hand and looked at me then flew away. Now I am smiling! Thanks Mr Robin

Getting more used to this now, even set up notifications... go me!

Today I had to find a certificate of my exams I passed, I thought, a few years ago. Turns out it was 1998... Now I feel so very very old, especially as that particualr City and Guilds certificate no longer exsists..... 😂. Just wait... Old age will get you all.

Having been to Auschwitz twice, and cried each time I went. Einstein once said..The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.
