I’d call it A test of character and resolve ( or an effing nightmare ) Had that happen on a couple of occasions, no rhyme nor reason. Both occurrences were at the New Forest Marathon🤔. On the second occasion a few of my friends were waiting outside a pub in the beer garden at about 24 miles, so I stopped for a pint of Guinness 🍺 and a natter before heading for the finish.And what do you call it if the legs give up at the beginning of a run.

The first flat share I was in after coming to Coventry had an outside toilet with no light in it, we were piddling by torchlight at night, the bath was in the kitchen.

Last nights show. That's it until the end of January for bookings. I need a bit of a rest, so not complaining. Practice, rehearsals, all the rest of it, really takes it out of you.

When I lived in Aussie we had what they called a "night toilet" it was outside and the council came round at night to empty it

Handy for having a bath while doing the dishes.

A lot of people are selling their homes to live on narrowboats. A friend of mine did it over 24 years ago.

Oh dear... dog #2 has been brought back. He had an accident which would have been hilarious had he not injured himself doing it. He was trying to pee up against something on a walk and got his cocked up leg caught up. When he tried to lower his leg he couldn't and tripped over. He has damaged something in the calf/ankle area. He is lying opposite me looking very sorry for himself!
Trip to the vet first thing tomorrow if he isn't looking better.

Been another wander as there’s rain forecast soon. It’s certainly clouding over now.
I might have a snuggle under the duvet later.
