Rest day

Another day, another day with a cold. Ho hum.

Pulled a muscle near a shoulder blade last night, sneezing, while I was watching Master Chef, the Professionals. (the website of which reminds me – why is the BBC website full of such lazy programming these days? There’s no listing of what’s going on like you used to get – no profiles of the contestants, outline of the programmes to come – just a list of links to the iPlayer. The BBC News website is the same, so often I follow the link to an interesting-sounding item, and it’s just a video. I can’t be bothered to watch themĀ - I want to read something. Where’s the commentary and analysis that you used to get? I suppose it’s a symptom of the recent cost cutting that’s been going on at the beeb.)

Anyhoo, Ludovic got knocked out last night, which was a bit of a surprise, he was good in the earlier rounds but failed to raise his game.

Unlike the professionals, I can’t be arsed to cook anything decent tonight, it’ll be a tin of “beans n’ balls” on toast (on offer at 79p from our corner shop at the moment ;-) ).

73.8kg

  1. Wow, you’e going to be breaking the 75kg barrier soon , never seen the like before. I’m feeling for you cos you do sound like you’re having a grim time of it.

  2. Amazing how the weight piles on as soo as you stop, isn’t it? It’s not as if I’m stufffing my face with pies either – I skipped dinner last night. Despite a bad cough I’m starting to feel slightly better today though, so maybe the end is in sight. This is the longest I’ve gone without doing any serious exercise for probably 4 years (I got achilles tendonitis at the end the 2005 season and packed away my bike for more than a month).
