Post 120: That's Life

Yesterday I did this - York 100, for Action Medical Research. I'd recommend this for people who are much fitter and better at cycling than I am. This dominated my weekend and my culinary delights were reduced to: - pre-ride: masses of pasta
- during: my own bodyweight in flapjack
- after: 2 poppudoms and an onion bhaji as I feel asleep before I could eat the main course.


Still my Courgettes keep on growing and another was ready for picking today. Oh, it's just like That's Life, isn't it. Does it take you back? It's like 1889 all over again...


On the upside though, despite having numb hands, an achy back and a sore bum, I did get given a Marmite themed Paddington bear.

I'm not really one for teddy bears, but I'll be keeping this fella - he was hard earned.
