The last week has been filled with many, many eventful events. Yes, indeedy. Thursday night we ventured out to Glasgow to take a trip back in time with Fleetwood Mac. They were amazing. All of them aged 60 and over - Lindsay Buckingham was on the stage for the whole 2 1/2 hour concert. Seriously loved them! After getting home around 1am I still managed to make it to work for 7am and then head straight from work out for my work Farewell Party. After a few Gins, a few more Cosmopolitans and then unknown rounds of Jagermeisters and various other short drinks I made it, stumbling, home and managed to do this without throwing... away my good name. I was taken care of by my fiance and then served with a hearty hangover curing breakfast the next morning.
Alas it was not over yet. No rest for the wicked they say. That night we headed out to have dinner with some friends. More eating, drinking and making merry. Delicious dinner, clever conversation and then heading out into town to the Royal Oak for a bit of folk and the Jazz club for, well, Jazz. Cold winds, rain, taxi hunting, chips and cheese, coffee, more conversation, walking home in the rain. 4am I finally got to answer the call of my bed.
I'm still recovering... I'm too old to drink and stay out so late. 6 more sleeps till we land in South Africa. I will make it. I'm getting stronger by the hour.
Hey, it's good to see that you have started training early for the festive season. :-))
