Hello, dear reader!
It’s good to talk.
And, if you read that in the voice of Bob Hoskins, then that means you are at least as old as I am.
Which segues nicely to the theme of this week’s offering.

Let's Get Physical!
Hello, dear reader!
Never look a gift horse in the mouth, they say.
And so, when an opportunity presented itself to me to get some of the exercise I’ve been so drastically needing for quite some time in a structured and measured way, I was hardly in a position to turn it down now, was I? No, the chance had to be seized, no matter how unlikely that chance might sound.
You see, I’ve joined a gym!

On Track
Hello, dear reader!
There’s a lot to be said for taking a break from the old routine.
And this week there’s been not one break, but two to report on!

Making Hay
Hello, dear reader!
Hot enough for you?
Yes, the U.K. is, as we speak, melting into a small puddle thanks to a semi-seasonal heatwave.
From a personal point of view, this has both its negatives and its positives and, if you’ll bear with me, I’ll run through those with you right now.

Brand New Day
Hello, dear reader!
Exciting times are upon us!
Yes, after what has seemed an endless wait, the day has finally arrived. It’s like Xmas and a birthday and possibly a Shrove Tuesday all wrapped up in one sparkly and pancake-free package.
Because tomorrow I pick up my new wheelchair!

World (Cup) Affairs
Hello, dear reader!
And welcome to what promises to be a very crowded month of doing not an awful lot
Why? You ask. Didn’t you just mention a firm writing schedule in your last post?
Well, yes, and in fairness, that is still operational. What I’m talking about is the rest. The downtime. The telly and the reading and the playing of computer games.
Because, tomorrow, The World Cup kicks off.

Hello, dear reader!
Yes, after an enforced week off, due to technical difficulties (a slightly broken laptop) I’m back! And, if you ask me, it’s not a moment too soon.
So, did you miss me?
So, did you miss me?
No? Well, that’s rude.
