As it happens both me and Keith have gotten new jobs and with the same employer, the NHS. My whole process was quite simple, once I’d received all the forms I had to fill in. I thankfully had joined the update service so I didn’t need to get a new DBS/CRB, so it was just…
Sports
Now I may enjoy watching sports but I know nothing about them. I’m watching ski jumping as I watch this and couldn’t tell you a thing about it. Motorsport is my main thing to watch, while athletics + tennis + ice skating are my sports to do. I am sure I have missed many…
I’d rather be drinking it…
At my latest session I was doing conditioning. That mean me doing shuttle runs. I absolutely hate doing them, but that was with sand bags, this time I have beer barrels. I have 4 of them plus 2 sand bags and had to do 4 shuttle runs with 1 min rest in between. This wasn’t too…
What I’ve been up to so far this weekend

My last two strength training sessions
So I haven’t been as frequent as I hoped to the gym but somethings just get in the way. Like last Thursday we were traveling up to my parents, 3.5hrs by various trains in the morning, and didn’t want to feel ill for it. I’ve been feeling sick after the last couple of sessions, I…
This past weekend
Friday We went for a walk and stopped off at one of our fav pubs The Selden Arms (built 1869). It’s small but has a decent choice of ales and the landlady is so funny with her regulars. Maybe we will become regulars as it will be our local work pub soon. We only had…
