No Glory *

My body aches all over tonight. Started off a wee bit stiff on the legs this morning, but now I can hardly walk. Well, it was the start of our five-a-side football season last night. I realised early in the match that my thrice weekly gym sessions and weekly badminton games are one thing, but playing full-speed-ahead indoor football is quite another. Always enjoyable right enough, even when my shooting was as atrocious as it was last night. I did manage a few goals, one of which was a cracker. But I know I can only improve as the weeks go by. What my body is crying out for tonight is a long soak in a hot bath, but that is not possible and the reason for that is another story for another time.

While I have some trouble walking - and, no, that is not as a result of drinking too much - I have promised JJ that nothing is going to stop me from travelling up to see her tomorrow night. We're planning to go to a particularly fabby looking restaurant/pub in the countryside, so I can't wait for the hugs, kisses and "fat chips" that await!
