Broke my record for the mile today. 5:51. Slowly edging to my 5 minute goal.

Not bad for an pensioner.

Quicker than Roger Bannister........

Not bad for an pensioner.

Not bad for a 49 year old 6'4" 111kg pensioner.

@Dirk Its quicker than Roger Bannister can manage now, but still nearly 2 minutes slower than he managed in his prime!

One thing for sure, I would not want to stand in your way when you are going at that speed. I miss running, it was something I enjoyed a lot, arthritis has put paid to it.

Good morning. I have been faffing around. Not doing much today. Looks like another bleh day in store here.

 

[Drago]

Bright and sunny here. Its Summer II - The Sequel, and this time it's personal. Starring Lord Drago as the unwilling hero, desperately fighting huge odds to get his grass cut.

 

[Dirk]

Out for a ride today. Weather looks good but a bit breezy; not as bad as yesterday, though.

The gym, Screwfix, the dump, long walk with Mrs rb58. Maybe not in that order.

Bit of a heed this morning after last night's craft beer tasting class. I was a model student and insisted on extensive self study after the class. Think it was the Durham Temptation Imperial Stout at 10% abv that did for me.
Anyway, Mrs. jg is going to drop me and the dogs off a few miles from home when she goes into work so that we can get a decent walk without me having to drive anywhere.

 

[Drago]

...Screwfix...

Impotence clinic, eh?
