Exercise Is Good For You

I get a rare 'good' morning from L on the email; this is apparently because the scales are down this morning. There seems to be a 'competition' going on at her work and she is now four pounds ahead. The red wine and curry diet is obviously working well. Her opponent is apparently gutted, L appears elated. L keeps telling me that she hasn't go a competitive bone in her body. Hmmmm. Who needs squash eh?

The gardeners around here at work have carpeted over all the flowerbeds and then pulled the plants through holes in the carpet. Why do they do this? There must be a reason. It is to protect them from frost or are they going to put mulch over the top. I don't know but it looks crap at the moment.

From today's papers, exercise is good for you, particularly if you're a man and it's your partner who's doing it. Women who exercise at least five times a week have the best sex lives. The gym is good but cycling is better, women who cycle, are twice as 'active' as those who don't but that’s obvious, it's because they're ogling us male cyclists with our muscles clad in clinging lycra. Swimming though is the best thing, a swimmer in their forties is as rampant as a twenty year old. That reminds me, I must finishing writing that training schedule for L.

Dog class goes well. The trainer sets ups a typical 2007 style Grade 5 course, the sort of tricky course we've seen a lot of this season. So it's good practice. We do well but don't go clear, so it's a typical 2007 Grade 5 performance from us.

We collect L from yoga, hope her training went well...
