Stripey

I’m finding it difficult to see what I’m writing on the computer this morning.  This is not my eyes playing up, but rather a combination of a highly reflective screen and a bright Paul Smith striped shirt!

I have a couple of good reasons to be stiff tomorrow, so I got on the running machine this morning and jogged out a mile (in 9.49) to loosen some of the potential aches.

The run with Mark was one good reason, although I’m still confused as to why the overall pace was SO slow given how hard work it was.

The other main reason is that I spent a few hours both Saturday and Sunday sculpting.

In case you’re finding it hard to imagine what this involves, here is a quick photo.

This is not an ideal way to work for a whole series of reasons, but the alternative is building and storing a work bench that I could stand at… maybe next year!  Either way, the mallet is not light and my technique not yet well developed so I’m feeling a little tension across my shoulders.

That’s a clue, by the way, in case you’ve not already figured out what I’m working on!

Have a great week peops!
