Friday 18th May
I am convinced that Jane should write her own blog, she is
soooo funny!!
I toddled off to the Merton today to partake in some ‘circuit
training’, before you all start exclaiming, (in-laws included!) it was very
gentle, and included a dozen women of a ‘certain age’. We were put through our
paces by a very nice instructor, and it was just right for my level of ‘fitness’.
After the class I told him that it was an achievement for him to get 12 women
hot and sweaty in 40 minutes, at which one of the other instructors piped up
that he was surprised it had taken him that long!
I was able to use a ‘free pass’ to the spa at Hotel de
France this afternoon with LW, and very pleasant it was too, the pool was
lovely and we lolled about in the various ‘tubs’ before it started to fill up
with small children. The downside to that place is lack of shower facilities/changing
rooms, although it doesn’t bother me to be ‘bare headed’ around the house and
with friends, I didn’t think it was fair to inflict my naked head on the small
children in the changing room! The site of a middle aged woman with a spotty/
stubby head would be enough to send them screaming to their parents, and me
banned from public places forthwith.

Dear Mrs. Luce, if I did have my own blog, I would write things like "Full day at St. Saviours Hospital doing the manual handling course. Finally got to learn how to use the hoists etc, so I am now confident that if I put a patient in one, I'm not going to accidentally catapult them out the window with the wrong press of a button."
ReplyDeleteI would immediately be struck off the register that I will be working so hard to get back on to!
