@cold ethyl I don't like the Smiths either.
Another coincidence. .I did my nurse training in Hexham General 1984- 86 . The old hospital.
 
Did 23 minutes on bike after dinner. Seemed to work off any possible after effects of the Makeway curry sauce as 5.6 after 2hrs.

I Have an eclectic taste in music. Will listen it most things but Morrissey's voice drives me mad.
 
Yay, after 6 months since the February storms the sea wall is open to pedestrians again :). It's been nice finding new walks to do in the meantime, but it's also good to return to an old friend. It's a good 50 minute walk if I go to the far end and back, shorter walks are available.

Sanguine made me quite homesick looking at your pics believe it or not you can get fed up of sunshine !!!. I have had a busy day today walking round shopping centre for 20 mins and then this afternoon went to collect a friends daughter from her theory driving test and could not park nearby so another good walk. Been up and down stairs a few times as well so today I think I have done enough !
 
A busy day. Early appointment with Health trainer, from GP referral.
I went with an open mind, and returned with my eyes opened.

Then to pool, 50 mins fast swimming and water exercises. Followed by a 40 minute supermarket dash. All before lunch.

A 10 minute walk this afternoon, then five mins trying some physio exercise using 1kg hand weights.

Probably going to finish the day with a 15 min session of Pilates exercises.
 
All this music, just reminded me, I got to see probably my top three, The Beach Boys, Meatloaf, and Blondie, live, in the last couple of years.
As good as they ever were!

Thanks connie
I am on a bit of a roll at the moment. Making up for lost time, and banking some, because I sometimes can't get to the pool.

You are coming on well too. Must be a relief to have the surgery done.

How about, Vera Lynn, Nat King Cole, or Gracie Fields?

Ooops, disregard that, been spending too much time visiting elderly in care home.
 
Yes I feel good but then my hip starts to ache and I know it's time to rest. Stitches out next Wednesday so will ask if I can get in the pool even if it's just to walk about .

Yes that sounds like a plan.
Now make me envious. Is it an outdoor pool in lots of sunshine?
 
Yes it is and you will be horrified to hear we rarely use it as I have an aluminum ladder to enter it and was worried when my leg was bad i wouldn't get out !! Still no excuse now after next week .

Aww, connie. I would have had to have found a way of sorting the steps in. Or would have gone in and stayed in.
