I love reading blogs about people pushing themselves, working out and getting a sweat on I wish I was like that, I really do. I think if I had a set working pattern it would be easier. At present I do no exercise on work days as I work 12.5hr shifts. I also don’t go…

Exciting times
Well not really, I still haven’t heard from the job I interviewed for last Thursday even though they said I wouldn’t heard before Monday. Well hello it’s now been a week! I also had a rather crap gym session this morning. In better news though I got 87% for my K217 EMA but my crappy…
Me & exercise
I don’t think me & exercise get along. I like to exercise sure but I don’t have any gym/running friends so think that makes it harder for me. Sometime in 2012 I joined the local leisure centre planning to use their gym & take classes. I never once stepped foot in the door. I cancelled…
The parents visit
My parents arrived at 7:30pm on Thursday after a 7 hour coach journey. Why they take the coach and not the train is beyond me. Our plan for the evening was to do nothing, I cooked two different crustless quiches with new potatoes and runner beans which turned out quite nicely. Friday we were off…
Being an expat
Ok so I’ve never been an expat and never will, my age and lack of qualifications put a stop to that, but I’ve always dreamed of moving to the USA or Australia. I just never did anything about it early enough in my life 🙁 You’d think being a commonwealth country it would be easy…
Exercise week 3
With my parents visiting us Thursday – Monday morning I only got to the gym 2 times Tuesday & Wednesday. Tuesday 5k run (a slow 5k) Wednesday 1 mile warm up Squats 2×8 20kg 2×8 30kg Bench Press 4×8 20kg 1 mile run, same as above. Weight = 155lbs
Property hunt….
Why is it so hard to find a place to live? It doesn’t help that we haven’t the money to move just yet and that I don’t stop looking at places. We are thinking of somewhere below £800 a month but have seen a lovely place for £850. We need two beds as we have…
I went to the races
Not the horse races but the slot car races. Two Saturdays ago me & Keith went along to Brighton’s open market for a day of showing of our track to the locals. It was fun & neither of us had ever been to that market before, in fact we’d never been to that part of…
Dieting & fitness
So I was going to just write a post just about the fad diets the ladies at work are on, but then I came across a post my Ashley about personal trainers. Here in the UK gym instructors/personal trainers have very little training. You can take a level 2 or 3 certificate in gym…
A visit to Chichester
For you Americans it isn’t pronounced chi-chester like the tea 😉 I have been to Chichester a few times now, it is where I started my terrible first degree attempt and it is now only 29 min by train from where we live. Me & Keith have the week off work, he needed to go…
