Now that was one good day! Perfect weather, perfect venue, food, wine, company, SJ looked beautiful, and Tim scrubbed up ok too..in fact, to pinch one of Tim's phrases, it was 'pretty awesome'!
It was, quite simply, a beautiful, beautiful day.
(Flippin hard work, but worth it!!, I don't want to see cheesecakes or pecan pies for a while, or large blocks of cheese, or count cherry tomatoes......)
Anyways, the Moonwalk.....a marathon around London, in aid of Breast Cancer, wearing a decorated bra (yes, and pants!)...on 12th/13th May is my next venture! I'm doing this with a bunch of work colleagues, and we have been plodding the streets of Newbury in preparation for this, not wearing the bra's though!
In fact, as part of the 'package', the moonwalk company provide you with a bra to decorate, to wear on the evening. Now, I know that I haven't got much in THAT department, but this bra they have sent me is HUGE, and is mostly padding....If I wear that on the night, I am going to cause a serious injury to myself as a) I can't see the pavement, and b) the padding is soooo heavy I'm going to topple over!!
Anyways, for anyone wishing to sponsor my colleagues and I, I will be posting a justgiving page soon, so please do...it is a good cause, and even though SS and I are doing other challenges this year, WE won't be asking for any other sponsor money....
Talking of SS, we are still both training....I'm doing no where near as much as SS, work tends to get in the way a bit, but I still get along to Pilates with her x2 a week, a gym session, body attack, zumba and our walks when we can, I also fit in kettle bells when possible, now that is some exercise!
20 minutes of that and I feel absolutely battered, and I feel it for the next few days as well..must be doing some good eh!
SS is feeling battered too, she has started seeing a racewalker at a walking club...just when I thought she couldn't walk any faster......honestly, if she does walk any faster, I swear there will be sparks flying off her thighs and her knickers will catch fire....!
Anyways, this is a weekend off, as it's Easter, and Chris, Cassia, Withers (that's one of Cass's friends who is called Jaimie, but as there is about 100 Jaimie's we have to call her Withers, or something like that...)and myself headed over to Belgium to see Steve, and I'm..at the moment, eating my way through Belgium and Paris!!
The food is just so scrummy here, I've already had to loosen my belt a notch....
The cappuccino's are amazing...you get a shot of espresso, topped with not steamed milk, but chantilly cream....there are literally 100's of pastries and biscuits to choose from, 1000's of cheeses, chocolates.....I could go on....but everytime I do, I miss a bite!
Au revoir!
