Following the confirmation that G wouldn't be able to run the marathon this year, we were dreading being in London on the day.
So how lucky are we?
A dear friend has offered us use of their holiday cottage and we're going away for a few days.
Away from the marathon mania, pollution, stress, phones, emails ...
A time to concentrate on simple pleasures - wood fires, sea air, long walks ...
... and barmitzvah cramming.
(8 weeks and counting ...)
Take care and see you soon.
PS Don't forget - G's sponsorship for SOS Africa had been carried over to the North Downs 30k in June.
Thanks for your support.

Is that 'the saltwater fish that got away', or 'the fish that got away to the saltwater'?
Have a good time!

You've never called me a 'simple pleasure' before!
Sorry to hear about G's not running, but hey lining has a cloud. Hope you enjoy your break away - you'll need it to garner your strength for the barmitzvah organising! Hang in there guys!
It sounds all silver lining...ish to me. And a barmitzvah to look forward to as well. Wow.
