Hello ladies I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted! Just head down busy with work really. Been keeping up with the yoga and today fitted in a TTM premix which left me pretty winded! Lisa - so sorry to hear that your sis is still entrapped. And then the bomb squad. You need a...

Hello Mary - bet you're relieved though even though DS is disappointed. That's ridiculous how much the temp has dropped. Jody - I've done one Cathe so far but have decided to do yoga for a few weeks. Just feels right at the moment. I'm doing a shoulder strengthening/stretching programme for...

Hello ladies I'm back! Very refreshed, tanned and relaxed! Had a fab time and I can highly recommend Rhodes, it's beautiful. Very mountainous with lovely beaches and fantastic weather. Tracey - good to see you again after a while. Congrats on the new job!!! I'm so pleased for you. Taking on a...

Hi all Lisa - that's so awful about your sister. She's been completely swizzed and is obviously horribly desperate. Some part of her must know what has happened and that's why she's asking for more, she can't bear to admit how badly she's been scammed. But it's not your fault or your...

Hi all Jody - glad to hear DD got sorted out. That's so funny about the trampoline! We just don't learn! Hope the knee is feeling better. I love bats! Mary - sounds like you had a great time in Chicago. How nice to know that DS is on his way. Hope the return to work hasn't been too bad. Lisa...

Hi everyone! Yes, I'm back. Been back just over a week. Had a very hot time in Germany between 29 & 36 degrees every day! We cooled down in an outdoor pool and a lake. Had a very unrelaxing end to the trip when our flight was cancelled (!) but apart from that it was great. Lisa - sorry to...

Lisa - No, it's often rainy but not generally humid. It's 88F here today with 40% humidity though ... Too hot with no end in sight. Keeping all the windows and doors shut and the curtains closed, then we open everything up in the evening. We're off to northern Germany where it's even hotter at...

Hello all Jody - sounds like a nice trip you've got planned. Lisa - enjoy your rest day. I can't deal with humidity. Been keeping up with the workouts despite the heat. We had our first rain for 6 weeks on Friday but that's been it. Temps back up again, so warm at night it's hard to sleep...

Hi everyone Mary - enjoy the pool! We've been lucky in that it hasn't been too humid here till now but it has got a bit more so this week. The afternoons are wiped out for me for work. I just don't have the energy! Oh, and we do have toilet seats in the UK! Lisa - enjoy the cool weather. Did...

Hello Mary - if you head to northern Europe at this time of year it's even lighter. Even Scotland is light till about 10.30/11 now. Jody - it was America's Cool Modernism at the Ashmolean. Painters from the 20s/30s responding to the industrialisation of the US. Some good stuff. Sounds like a...

Hello Mary - good to have you back. Glad you've had a good trip. Where was your favourite place? That would have been great if you'd had enough time to pop across the Channel! Lisa - good job the insurance is paying up. Not a lot to report here. We're getting some house jobs done. Painter...

Hi Lisa - that's disappointing! Hope you enjoyed your weekend anyway. I met up with Jody and daughter yesterday in London. We had a very pleasant (and hot!) walk around Kew Gardens. Lovely to see them both again! Weather supposed to cool a little over the next few days, I'm ready for it. Did...

Hi ladies Lisa - hope you both get good news in the phone call today. Keeping my fingers crossed. It's super hot here as well, we're in the middle of a heatwave with no end in sight. The grass is completely brown in the garden. Most nights it does cool down though which is a relief. I couldn't...

Hello Lisa - when are you coming to Europe to join Mary and Jody?! It's all happening here this year! Any news on DH? Had a lovely day at Wimbledon yesterday. We were on Court 1 so saw some good tennis. Fortunately we were under the roof where it was nice and cool otherwise we would have...

Hello everyone Jody - is that another bathroom? Didn't you have one redone recently? So, does that mean you don't get checked at the airport? Nice. Lisa - So, DH's company would like him to leave so they don't have to pay any redundancy money, is that right? Hope he gets things sorted out...

Hello Jody - I'd completely forgotten about the guide. Thanks for the reminder. Sounds like a great workout! Mary - how exciting! Will you be posting from your travels? I've now got a cold, so dropping the workouts for a couple of days to try and recover. I think I hear an afternoon nap...

Hi everyone I've been buried under a mound of work for the last couple of weeks, I just want to switch my computer off and walk away at the end of the day. I have managed to keep up with the workouts, I had a FS week last week and I'm mixing and matching this week. Did a Jessica Smith pilates...

Hello Lisa - glad to hear you're recovering well. No, you're not on your own; I'm certainly suffering with more long-term injuries that never get better. Fortunately I don't think I've had anything as serious as you. No workout to report today. I've got meetings and have to go out so can't...

Hello ladies Murphy - glad to hear you're on the mend. Jody - I've ordered too. Ha, funny about the cat! Neck OK thanks. A bit stiff yesterday but nothing serious. I'm doing KCMs this week as work is crazy! My hip flexors were hurting this morning as I sat for three hours without moving...

Hello Jody - thanks for the essay!! What's Raffi? Good to hear you've got rid of the nasties. Not that I'm immune to the odd slug pellet... I've really noticed the lack of insects though. I remember going on motorway journeys when I was a kid and the windscreen being covered in insects, now...
