National running day
It must be National Running Day because there were a lot of people out running. Most of them going in the opposite direction to me. I must be so unfashionable I don’t even know which way to run. There was another man obviously v. unfashionable too as he came running past me and I turned round as I heard him approaching and I obviously looked like I thought he was going to mug me and so he gave me a big smile and a big cheery “morning” so then I decided that he wasn’t going to mug me after all. But in fact, I hadn’t thought he was going to mug me anyway. At least I’d looked the right way when he was behind me, unlike the cyclist who overtook me on my right, as I looked to my left to see who was coming up behind me. Duh.
And good news, my camera has fixed itself, yah!! I didn’t take it out today though as I did the same route as I did when it broke so here are the pics from then.
There weren’t many people out on the river today, the other week there were loads, here’s a couple of canoeists.
And some swans and ducks.
And a squirrel.
And another picture of the squirrel, because you can’t have too many pictures of squirrels. Or penguins but I didn’t see any penguins. Or cows but the cows are gone. Grr.
And there’s a pub in the marshes, cool! Although my Saturday run is too early to go to the pub. Not that I remember what drinking’s like. How many days ’til February?
And here’s a wreath. Probably someone got into a fight after drinking in the pub. Maybe I won’t go to that pub after all.
And back out onto the street and continuing on the pub run theme. This pub does a v. nice veggie lasagne. Yum.
And here’s where I got v. drunk on New Years Eve where my camera first sort of broke but then unbroke itself and then as I was taking this pic, in a spooky coincidence kind of way, broke again.

Good job on the run. Great picts too. We don’t have many bars at all here. I usually just drink at home by myself which I have been told is not really good.
Self fixing cameras are the future 🙂 as long as they don’t become self aware and try to take over the planet.
Well done on the run… it’s long until you can have a pint 😀
Thanks 🙂
Just checked with my mate to see if he’d cheated in the no alcohol thing but he hasn’t. Damn, was hoping he had so I could go to the offy and get a bottle of wine 🙁
