Well that’s that then!
The final day, that’s it, time to finish all of my challenges. How to do it? Well I walked into Wickford, got a train to Shenfield, then a bus into Brentwood. Well you may have heard of Brentwood, it’s where that serious, in depth documentary about exactly what life in Essex is like is set. […]

I’ve found a new use for trifle.
I should probably say that I’ve found A use for trifle. I don’t like trifle. I think it’s the consistency. Slimy, wobbly stuff. And it’s got custard in it, I don’t like custard either. When I was given custard as a kid it always seemed to have a skin on it, yuk! So, we have […]

There are more questions than answers ……..
Well there are with me around, although I do have a tendency to over think things. So ……. Why does a half marathon that you walk at night have a medal like this? Could it be so you can see it in the dark? Enjoyed my first half marathon though, and could have kept going. […]

5 days done.
Day 5 yesterday and I’ve met my first week’s targets, in fact I’ve exceeded some of them! Really pleased with that as my aim was to start strong …. while I can! I’ve started writing entries for my blog a few times over the last few days, but on each occasion I’ve been too tired […]

7 hours to go!
Well the last 24 hours haven’t been the easiest! As I’ve told you, I’m a carer. Got home last night to find my man (all 6’4” of him) sprawled out across the floor surrounded by bits of broken table and in the sort of mess you only get into when you’ve drunk 3 bottles of […]

So, what’s the plan?
So, I got to thinking about how, no matter what I did, I am going to be 60. Well, obviously there is one way I could avoid it but that didn’t seem to provide the best solution! I really don’t know how I came up with this, but I decided that I wanted to challenge […]

I’ll soon be wearing purple …..
OK, I’ve ignored it, I’ve denied it, but I’m finally going to have to accept it …………. I am going to be 60 in just over a year’s time. There we are, I’ve said it. Has the world come to an end? Can I hear weeping and wailing noises from around the universe? No …. […]
