Quick update on me me me
So what has been happening with me since I last Blogged in earnest? When did I last Blog again (apart from earlier this evening you bunch of smarty pants)?
Oh ok, some rubbish about reality TV, eBay and me looking like Beckham, I mean Beckham looking like me. Actually we're about the same kinda age.
Major news this week was that my cousin and Auntie were attacked in their takeaway. Details still sketchy, but my Auntie was beaten unconscious and tied up in the basement, and my 19 year old cousin was stabbed 12 times. Luckily I am very relieved to say that they are both ok now, badly shaken up obviously and the Police actually seem to be doing some decent investigating.
Workwise, I've been going to and from Windsor and Edinburgh for work. Lots of travel is not glam and definately stressful. Very nice being able to stay in the Sheraton Edinburgh, cos they have a good gym and nice food (all expenses paid). The work is going well and definately interesting, so much so that I have now asked to be transfered permanently from Audit into Consulting.
Trying to get fitter as well. I have signed up for a triathlon and a sponsored bike ride, so need to get some training in. First step this week was going out for a run in Edinburgh with work colleagues. Big mistake. They go running all the time (one guy has a GPS running computer!) and they took me on a nightmare route that's mostly uphill. Needless to say I couldn't hack it, the legs were burning up and I had to turn back halfway up the hill. Quite pleased to have done 5km, but at time of writing (2 days later) I am still walking like I have two wooden legs.
On top of that Ellen and I have bought mountain bikes. Went to the New Forest with Rong and Kim and loved it so much that we all ended up buying bikes! Going to try out some routes around London and do some weekends away. Turns out that Vicks, JTR, Dave, Kate, Bonnie and Georgina are all bikers too so could be a fun weekend away.
I have been accused of turning into a new age hippy.
Anything else going on? Well everyone seems to be getting into Poker a lot which is cool. hit my first birdie at Golf last week. Must be getting old(er) as I prefer bowling, golf and cards to bars and clubbing. Ah well... who cares?
