Saturday Post - Cycling Goal Missed!

25 Cycle Miles only!!
Been a poor week on the cycling as well as weight front! Only got bikes back on Thursday night and bad weather on Thursday and Friday night meant didn't get as much mileage as I would have liked done. Still got running and gym goals done so it's not all bad!! Did a good run yesterday morning with loads of hills that not that many months ago I'd have got off and pushed, breezed up them though, and now am getting used to the SPD pedals the hills are even easier!


Pitiful 25 miles!

Liked this route - loads of loops inside Ashbourne - good fun

Flicks later in more ways than one!

Janette gone to York shopping today so have kids all day. We're going to see Ratatouille this morning and then this afternoon we're going to put 240 LED outdoor Christmas tree lights on the big tree outside. I cut the top off it earlier in the year as it was getting too close to the electric lines for comfort so we're going to be a bit creative in getting it to look right. Picture to follow no doubt.

Rat in me kitchen...

Been to see Ratatouille this afternoon. Not the funniest film, or best plot but the graphics and sound are super! The textures and the way they've animated Paris are stupendous. The sound, well there's a bit when the rat runs away from Linguini and goes sort of out of shot (is there a'shot' when it's animation??) but off-screen anyway. When it happens the rats footsteps appear behind you and there's a bit in the old ladies house where the tv is on in the background and I thought it was someone talking behind me. They really used surround sound or dolby 5.1 surround or whatever the technology they used very well in my opinion!!!

Hammering it down with rain so not much chance of Xmas lights going up at the mo...
