I thought Chinelo would win till tonight...but the tie was a disaster! What a shame! Makes me want to get my shiny new sewing machine (which I got for my birthday in January!) out of it's box...

Phew. Leak in en-suite sorted. £50. :-) I got the chap to sort out a crappy loo that wasn't flushing well. He also tightened the kitchen tap which has been wiggly for years. :-)

Oh, and then I did a run - 5K which included hills. I kept to my target pace - it was a bit tough but I survived :-)

... and not too expensive, either.

bunting for thisisnatty - 1st mara, getting tangled up with all those slow runners, still finishing in 4.14!

Hello and welcome Timaru.

Looks as though the tooth fairly is going to be having a busy time among the 700-ers.

I see I have "new notifications" which probably refers to the busy buddying been going on. Will investigate shortly.

5 miles off-road with the running club. Hilly, muddy, squelchy, several stiles, one stream to be splashed through. Hey-ho, that's another pair of white socks turned grey.

I like twin skins, and have never seen them in anything but white.

I like them too, I had one black pair, but stood on a nail sticking up from a floorboard when my kitchen was getting done last year and tore a great big hole in the bottom. i have other black trail socks, but I do tend to get blistery bits if doing long runs, which I never do with twin-skins. I dont like wearing white socks now, black looks so much better

I liked Chinelo but she couldn't follow a pattern. I know that tie was confusing but I've found with patterns if you keep following they usually work out! Who'd ever think to hand make a tie?!

Heather was much more consistent, though occasionally boring, and knew she had to really go for it tonight.
I did find her a bit more annoying, but much less annoying than Tamara. What WAS that dress?
