No Exercise…..

Apart from my walks here and here , I have done no other exercise for almost 2 weeks.

Why ??  because I fell over and twisted my ankle, yes I kept very quiet about it . After falling over I carried on to walk 21 miles, it was not until I took my boots off that I felt how sore my ankle was.

Then after a day at work, where I am on my feet for 6 hours, it became very swollen, since then I have been taking care of it, wearing a support bandage and doing no exercise.

Trouble is I am now desperate to go out jogging,or down the gym, which I know I cannot so tomorrow I may have to get my beloved mountain bike out.

I was into Biking long before Walking, used to spend half my life at Thetford Forest biking the Black mountain bike route.

When I lived at Marham I had a wonderful route that took  me through Shouldham Warren , across country by the river , and back through the fen.

Last year I did the bike event 50 mile ride from Norwich, and the Waendel week-end, walking 19 miles on the Saturday and biking 25 miles on the Sunday.

Tomorrow could be the first time my bike has been out since October.

Iris Folding

As alot of you will know as well as walking and baking I also enjoy doing some Craft work, I enjoy making cards too and the technique I enjoy most is called Iris Folding.

Iris folding is a fun and easy paper folding technique that can be used to make greeting cards.

Iris folding is very versatile in that any type of easy to fold paper can be used. Left over Christmas wrapping paper works great, so do envelopes, the one’s with the blue patterns inside.

The technique originated in Holland and it is called Iris folding because the center of the design resembles the iris of a camera or eye. Traditionally, origami paper is used for the main design and holographic paper is used to fill in the center of the design.

Instructions on how to make one can be found here

Some books on Iris Folding can be found here

 Why not make one for someone special !!
