First Swallow of Summer

Went out for a run this evening and I spotted my first swallow of the summer - just by brawlings farm. I think there were two of them. Anyway, enjoyable run, went over the fields to the Dumb Bell, felt great then was a bit of a labour on the way back. Only a couple of calfs and right achilles hurt this evening. Ready then for the tour of Worthing in a couple of weeks. Sent out a request for ladies a couple of weeks ago and not a single response - not even a no I cannot make it - i've still got it lol....
On the River Thames
Had a busy week and weekend. Sarah's last game of hockey for the season and I ended up going down the Thames on a neighbour's boat - the weather was great and it was so relaxing too - popped in for a couple of pints to a pub on the river which also had a big children's play area. We also went to a beach and watched the youngsters getting absolutely soaked in the freezing cold water - it was absolutely brilliant.

The rest of the weekend was pretty much spent working - I did a five year business plan for Cater For You which was very interesting - but I'm basically planning to leave it alone and get back to web design. I'm also going to take most of August off to to chill out a bit... maybe. Speaking of web design, I launched a web site for a really nice person in Chalfont St Peter who is doing fruit bouquets and chocolate bouquets - Fruitful Blooms. I designed in CSS from scratch - and took almost all the photos in the kitchen and I have to say the designs were brilliant - the chocolate dipped strawberries were great to look at and even better to eat. Much better idea than bouquets of flowers - last as long and you can eat them!!

I took Monday off to look after R & J and really enjoyed it - they were still a bit tired after Saturday when we were out a bit late but they were cool. The added bonus was that Charlie and Annalisa turned up - brilliant to see them again and looking forward to spending quite a lot of time with them before they dash back to Aus.
