Lardathon Day #10 and #11
Day 10 of Lardathon consisted of eating cake and not going to the gym which after the week I’ve had which, amongst other things, consisted of me getting caught up in this storm on my way home on Monday which resulted in it raining inside the landing, bedroom, spare room and my trainers being still soaking wet two days later, I think is justified. A hailstorm? In July? ‘kin hell. Still, last night I cooked a healthy meal of some kind of Oriental-ish inspired vegan noodle and rice thing and a not so healthy back of a can of condensed milk inspired banoffee pie. With added Baileys. Only 600+ calories a slice, but who’s counting?
Today was marginally better on the exercise front and also on the cow front. On the way to work this morning, which was a smoother journey than yesterday when, after having got up early so I could go to the bank before work, the train was late and when it eventually arrived it was only half a train so everyone was squished and then it sat at the platform for about 15 minutes so I thought fuck this and got off and walked the 20 minutes to the tube station and so didn’t get to Holborn early enough to go to the bank, plus because I had to get the tube instead of the train meant I didn’t get my daily cow sighting fix which royally pissed me off but anyway, today on my way to work I counted six cows. Yes, six cows, yah!! They’ve added two more, Big Brother stylee. Wonder if they’ll have evictions too although they won’t be able to moan about who’s the laziest as from what I’ve seen so far all any of them do is lie down all day although there were three standing up when I went past them on my way home tonight. And also on my way home tonight I started thinking about things that wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t stopped smoking 18 months ago and one thing that did occur to me is that I wouldn’t have a bad leg.

yeah but you’d have tar encrusted lungs instead 🙂
and you wouldn’t have got to meet me 🙂
oh – maybe that would be a good thing? 😉
LOL! yeah you would have pants lungs! – spill the beans on you and Bear then, your public need to know.
I am a practised veggie, I spill no beans 🙂
That Banoffee pie sounds scrumptious!
i know i defo wouldn’t ‘enjoy’ doing 5k’s on the treadmill if I hadn’t stopped smoking… i only get slightly tempted when drunk.
Congrats on the non smoking !!!!!!! Yes the Banoffee pie does sound delicious.
I can vouch for the banoffee pie being delicious 🙂
I’m not a veggie so I’m not practised at not spilling beans
However Jogblog has taught me well 😉
🙁 Killjoys! is the bear coming to Notts in September?
Not absolutely certain at the moment – I won’t be running, but may well come along to support 🙂
Ooh, I hate it when it rains in my house. We had several major downpours last year which brought rain in. We think we have the holes plugged now.
Sorry to hear about the wet trainers. But your pie solution sounds good.
