Up earlyish. Bread on, run up town and back. Bread out. Work on spade. Hit a few balls in field, hoovered up. Went golf, texas scramble with John and Doug, 1 over we ended up with two birdies and three bogies. We played bloody ace really so it was a shame to not end up with a better score. Details here starting from second hole.
Well Badminton was really good last night - can't say am improving but am enjoying it more so what more could I ask for. Lucy's got a new friend at Badminton who's of a similiar level so she tends to play with Harriet most of the hour we're there so that's good too. Went to group before going home and lost 2.5lb which is more than acceptable considering a bottle of wine and 4 cans of stella were consumed last weekend.
As there were still three bread cobs in the box from yesterday I made the decision not to get up at 4am to set the machine off, I'll do some more tomorrow. Anyway, got up at 5:45, quick run up town and back 2.5 miles at a just-under-the-radar 9:58ish per mile. Ok - Details

Knackered this morning but am getting into a routine of getting up around 4am, putting the bread on, going back to bed for 1hr 20 then baking rolls in the oven. All working quate well so t'is. Was a bit tardy getting out on road but have also settled into this routine of running up to paper shop and back each day so did that as well! Details

Got an email from the customer services dept of Daiwa. My lad's got a 12 foot beachcaster rod for which the tip ring seems to have lost the insert. Daiwa are sending me a free replacement - great customer service - that's why I've got three Daiwa rods! Made a 2 hook clipped down rig last night - fiddly to say the least - I realised since that what you need to do is not secure any of the crimps until the hook traces are on, that way you can adjust positioning so that the tension's about right. Also need to find a decent knot for 60lb mono which is an absolute pig to get tie.

4:20 this morning which was too late. Bread in, back to bed for 1hr 20mins, up rolls in oven, out on road, papers, back, breakfast, shower, work, on and on - there's a conveyor belt somewhere and I'm on it. Details to follow when watch decides to play ball.

Back fairly early from work so gave uncle Peter's spade another coat of Cuprinol (or liquid gold as I like to call it) so it's now all the same colour. Am going to fill the woodworm holes tonight and it'll be good as new(ish). Anyway up at 4:10am, bread in, back to bed, up at 5:30, made rolls, into oven, out on road at 6:15ish and a really solid run up town and back in sub 9 min miles. Pleased with that, details here.

Up at 4am, habit? Did a load of work and got it emailed. Put bread rolls in so they were ready for when family got up. Ran up town and back at 6:20, 2.5 miles in 10min/mile pace was okay. Details
Damn cold this morning though. Off to work, glorious sunshine today. Spring round the corner hopefully.

Nothing on the exercise front - goto up at 4am, took Phil to work (bloody dairy farms) went and helped me dad move some more furniture and a fridge out of Uncle Peter's. Fetched Lucy back from Grandma's and dropped the fridge off at the recycling center in Ashbourne. Washed both cars. Bought some Cuprinol woodworm killer to treat a spade have inherited from Peter's. It's dearer than malt whisky so it is. Anyway soaked the top of the handle (where the holes were) in the stuff for about four hours and it's nicely stained now so will paint the rest of the handle with it tonight.
