I’ve never seen an Organisation
Chart described so clearly.

When top level guys look
down, they see only shit; 
When bottom level guys look up, they see
only assholes…

Been looking for one of these for months

Finally stumbled across one last weekend in Cambridge.

Added a few photos tonight and rather like it

When my boys moan about having to do certain things, I always tell them, as they get older they will often have to do things they don’t want to do.

So to set them an example I am about to do something I don’t really want to do.

Although there is a possibility that I might actually enjoy it.

On Wednesday I am going into work to get trained on the tills BUT that does not mean I am giving up my fish job.

Its so exciting to see the apples starting to grow, on dwarf trees only planted last year.

My gooseberry bush is full of berries too.

I will cover it with netting soon to stop the birds from pinching all the fruit like they did last year !

Think I have enough Rhubarb to make Geoff a Rhubarb crumble at the weekend.

The Blueberry bush that I thought had died because I watered it with tap water seems to be doing fine and I might get some berries if i am lucky.

Now, dare I say this , we could do with some rain but just enough to water the gardens

After the disaster with my heat rash or allergy last weekend I am now better prepared for the heat … I hope !

We made a visit to Advanced performance this morning and was well looked after, getting lots of advice on trail shoes.

They had a good stock, where due to there gait analysis we were able to purchase the shoes most suitable for our feet and way of walking.

I settled on a pair of bright red mizuno trail shoes, as usual I had to have mens shoes and in a size 9 1/2, so they don’t look that elegant but then I am after comfort rather than looks.

Unfortunately they have a great selection of running gear too and I could not resist new shorts and a very girlie bright pink t – shirt, along with new running socks

Of course all this kit will make me run much faster when I do my Race for life event in July

Later in the day we visited the new Cotswold shop in Cambridge , this was a big mistake !

I have been thinking about upgrading my day Ruc-sac for a while , I was after a more up to date one which meant it would be lighter and have the new air flow system, making it cooler.

I  found one today that I really liked so now I am the proud owner of a Deuter Spectro AC  28 , in Red to match my shoes of course

So with a selection of walking socks and some Clarityn Allergy tablets I am well prepared for tomorrows walk

I will be eating baked beans for the next few weeks but that fine as its only 3 weeks till we go to Italy and I still have a little bit more weight to loose

After suffering over the weekend with a very bad case of heat rash round my ankles.

Which I gather is quite common in walkers.

I have decided that I must get myself some walking shoes rather than boots ASAP.

Now a days walkers tend to wear trail shoes for walking and most never go back to boots.

I also think i should change my socks to the light weight walking socks.

So the search begins

I just found my way home from Ashton Keynes

For someone that cannot navigate that’s very impressive

Would never be able to do it with out my Tom Tom

Who ever invented them deserves a gold medal !!

Now its bath and bed, more about my weekend of walking and photos to follow
