Day 1, going to be walking the Great Wall of China, May 2014 in memory of Mum and Dad, for Marie Curie Cancer Care, http://www.mariecurie.org.uk the nurses do amazing work with people in their last days or months.
And so starts the training! I have a couple of stones to lose, so will be updating on my fitness as we go.
But first I have to build this box! I've been trying for the past 3 days, I've screwed in and had to screw out as the screws have a mind of their own, Alan made the first one look so easy. I tried following his box template, then the red wine took hold, and I realised my squares are smaller than his and then the battery ran out on the drill thingy due to all the screwing in and out, so I gave up and carried on with the wine. I will take a piccy, but I can't use my phone (will save that story for another day), so you will just have to imagine this wonky box, well actually it's supposed to be a little shelf unit, with more holes than a colander and gaps, why when I screw it together does it not join up? no amount of pushing helps!
If I am to conquer the Great Wall, I must conquer the box first,
Right going for my first training walk, dogs not going to know what's hit her. bless. Janetx
