Private screenings

Paul & I have been to the cinema quite a lot in the first three months of 2011.

February and March 2011

Sun, 20 Mar 2011 22:22 GMT

A wee while since I posted on the Blog – what message does that give people? Does it mean that
1. I suffer from SAD and so am unable to get going and do anything when the long winter darkness is here? Nope, I am generally happy no matter the time of year.
2. I am a bit lazy and so have not bothered to do anything? Well, there is some truth in this statement.
3. I’ve been ill? A week was lost in February with a heavy cold but that should not stop me writing. March – see the next article for this!
4. Busy with work? A lot of truth in this one – read on!
5. A holiday? Yes, this as well which will be written about in the next article.

Holiday time!

When you are working, it seems as if you will have all the time in the world to do what you want to do when you stop working. Sorry to disillusion you all (or at least those of you who are still in full time employment) this is false. I think that when you are working, time becomes a well-stretched elastic band. When you stop working (or at least in the full-time employment way) the elastic contracts a little to start with and then it becomes stretched again.

Lost no more

After our excursion to Ardyne last week, we decided to have another go. Would Paul find the car?

I’m lost!

I wanted to run somewhere different to the usual caravan park and across the road to the east side of Loch Loskin. The weather was settled so I suggested a visit to Ardyne.

Glasgow 3 Parks in 1 Day 2010

Sun, 16 Jan 2011 14:54 GMT

This annual race is great fun and a bit quirky. The 2010 race took place on Sunday 16th January 2011. Blame the snow and ice in December. However the change of date meant that Paul & I could enter. Carol was relieved at this as she could then have a lift between locations!

Running in 2011

2011 – yet again I would like to become a little fitter. This means doing more exercise and maybe reducing the vast volume of food intake so that the running becomes easier if I lose some weight.

New Year 2011

The New Year came in quietly for us. We did stay up and watch some fireworks from the window.

Other December activities

The diary in December soon filled up with a variety of things. Christmas cards were late being sent - again!

Boat of Garten in December

Sat, 11 Dec 2010 12:08 GMT

At the start of December I was co-tutoring a UKCC L2 course for aspirant orienteering coaches. Paul signed up for a first aid course at the Slochd so we decided to take another break at The Old Stable near to Boat of Garten.
