    Forgot to bookmark this page!!! Welcome all 'newbies'. Hmmmm, 'oldies' huh? @jeanniewes ? Harrumph, have to start calling you'Grandma'...... ;)

    Was up in Cumbria much of the week, but failed to get much walking in. Need to get a National Trust membership as their car parking fees are extortionate!!!

    Plan another trip on the bike this weekend, and will hit the gym later. My obstacle race is looming!!!

    Also very excited as got a place on a dance camp for a week in Iceland in August!!! Can't wait, but need to get my dancing up to scratch by then, so my target for this month is to knuckle down to it (doesn't hell working away and missing classes!)

    My healthy eating also fell by the wayside this week - eating either in a soul-destroying bar in a hotel, where everyone was a lone worker checking their emails or calling home, and the entertainment was a mad dog-woman trying to speak German to the Czechs behind the bar. My second night was just me in a pub, with an off-duty drag queen for a chef, the landlord checking the court reports to see how many punters they'd lost into the prison system, and the old guy in the corner pretending to drink his point of Stella but actually repeatedly pouring it onto the carpet.

    Good luck everyone!

    40 mins or so walking with my daughter in the winter sun (to get her blood test done, then we played hokey and went to the cafe before she went back to school....we had a lovely time). Normally Mondays are a swim day, but I hope to go tomorrow instead.

    Not a big fan of cycling in the snow Steve after I came off big time going over a bridge - hit a great ice patch...silly me for not thinking about pretty basic physics!

    @gentlygently - yes ice is much worse.. this was at least 2 inches of complete snow cover on the road and I was on my old mountain bike

    however a couple days earlier I had one of those moments like you... we had a little snow the day before . I was on my road bike and road was completely bare. Wasn't thinking when I entered a small strech of complete tree canopy that prevented the sun from melting the road. Back of bike started sliding but never completely spun out from under me. Legs were a little wobbly for a few minutes...
