Friends
A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.

A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.

Down by the river……

OLIVES AND RIVER 002Wonderful hot sunny day here in Cambridge yesterday. so we spent the morning at the Country Fair held on Parkers Piece.

Got some wonderful stuffed olives, the display looked fabulous,full of color and different tastes.

We then made up a picnic of olives,bread ,strawberries and wine.

Took ourselves off to the Riverside club where we spent the afternoon sunbathing and swimming in the river once again  OLIVES AND RIVER 009

 

My skin is getting used to the sun now so I should be ready for the Corsican heat, also getting used to the cold river so should be ready for swimming in the lakes as well.

Had two walking free week-ends so I am now really ready to get out walking..two whole weeks of walking sounds just fabulous and I can hardly wait for next week-end to start.

Wonder if the mention of nude sunbathing had anything to do with it  🙂

Please go over and vote for me if you think I am pretty or tasty enough, you have till 13th of June.

Gehwol foot creams.

While training for my trip to Corsica I have had a few problems with blisters and sore feet.

I changed my boots and got new socks .

A few people recommended the Gehwol foot creams from backpacking light.

I was reluctant to buy these as they were so expensive,but I decided to treat myself and have not regretted it one little bit.

Not only do they smell real nice but they feel real nice too and leave no greasy after effect.

I especially like the refreshing foot balm , and put that on during the day, usually when I change my socks. Its cool and refreshing and feels great.

Half way….

Well I have become quite addicted to watching Prison break

so addicted we have watched 3 episodes tonight, making that 11 down and 11 more to go….

Think I had better re-join that gym as soon as possible….

Now its time to get my thigh trainer out and put di.fm on and get rid of some of my energy

The Sunshine’s…again !

What a great two days with no sign of the rain…

We made the most of it and went nude sunbathing and swimming in the river, at the Riverside club.

The river was exhilarating , cold to get into but nice for swimming….

Then today I finally got my swim in the Jesus Green outdoor pool.

I did a great 10 lengths , and was faster than Geoff , which has to be some kind of miracle. 🙂
