Lovely, didn't get out of work quite as early as intended but was still at the Inn Doors by five fifteen yesterday, nice! Bad weather puts people off so for a while there were only two of us in there, plus the owners. Then Clare suggested I stay out, she could put the boys to bed, so I took full advantage. Various friends came in at various points and I stayed until closing. Did I pay my bill before leaving? I think so...
Strangely woke up with a bit of a headache this morning! Then couldn't find my right shorts, nor my running shoes, hmm... Clare reminded me, had I taken them to work? I did, and I must have left a bag in the car. I biked off to parkrun in my old shoes and summer shorts. Then on arrival, where is my barcode? I had the wrong shorts on so no barcode in the pocket, and the wrong trainers on so no spare barcode tucked under the insole. No barcode means no time, no credit for this run. Would I actually chuck it in? No I ran anyway though a bit half-heartedly. Plus these old trainers make a flap flap flap noise, and this slowed me down. I soon ran off the headache, and when this cleared I remembered I had a spare spare barcode in my running jacket pocket. I sped up a lot for the last kilometre or so and had a good finish but overall a poor time of 23:361.
Emma and Jeff and the children visited this morning, lovely to see them. Then I took the boys into town to get haircuts and do some shopping.
I think I'm going to get a takeaway tonight from Cheriton Balti again, because I'm worth it. Then in the morning thing one and I are going to junior parkrun in Dover.
