  • 6 weeks to go

    until I hit the beach, Now the training has to get serious. So today, I walked up the stairs at the station, then walked to the office ( okay, it ain't far, but still, it's a start). I should have then walked up the 4 flights of stairs too, but let us not overdo it.
    No chocolate has passed my lips all day, and this evening I went for a 40 minute walk after tea.

    Now if i could just keep this up ;)

    actually Trinny and Suzanne are on at present, with the Great British Body or something. Apparently the average woman is 5 ft 4 and 11 stone 3!
    I think I have nothing to worry about it. B)

  • News from Bern

    well it is all happening over here you know.
    The Euro 08 kicks off this weekend and all is prepared. Signs and flags are everywhere, and even better the railway station is finished in Bern. We have had months of building work whilest they ripped up all the tram lines and renewed them, and demolished buildings, and put up an amazing glass roof over the front area. So, after so many months of disruption the town gave us a party on Saturday night.
    There was a bit of a demo from the anti-fascists, but no real trouble.
    Today the authorities have been practising what they need to do in the event of a chemical attack on supporters!
    On Saturday we are having a party in the village and watching 2 of the opening matches on the big screen, accompanied by beer and grub no doubt.

    In other news we had a vote on Sunday where the famous SVP (Swiss Volks Partei), they of the black sheep campaign, had been trying to get another law through to make it harder for us foreigners to become Swiss.
    The vote failed to get through by a clear majority. The SVP is now the Swiss Verlieres Partei ( or Swiss Losers Party) ;)
    Part of the SVP had already been kicked out cos Mr Blocher was upset at losing his seat to a mere woman, and now others from the SVP are joining them to form a new party. Who said politics was boring?
