And so it begins.....
Decided and found out last weekend that I'm seriously unfit. Have decided to finally do something about it so went out yesterday and bought some weights and press up bars. Figured if I've actually got something then it will keep me motivated.
Was sat here and about to write this when I thought that i should really do something else, so decided on a bike ride. Firstly, couldn't actually remember if I still had a bike. So one trip to the shed and a battle with the spiders I discover that yep there it is. No excuse now. One, or rather two, pumped up tyres later off I go. considering I've not done a proper bike ride for about 5 years now don't think I did to badly. Think I'm gonna pay tomorrow when the legs start aching.

An old friend
Saw a friend today that I haven't seen for months. Kept meaning to text her, maybe even actually pick-up the phone, but never actually did it. Wish i had done, cos otherwise you've gotta do the whole 'I meant to txt/ring but didn't cos I could't be bothered' kinda excuse. Plus she's been a great friend in the past and I can always talk about anything with her.
After a while it was fine, we were chatting away like old times. Her familly, stuff she had done, my holiday, stuff i'd done. Then she left.
Apparently we are going to go out one evening. Will it happen. I dunno? From past experinces something always seems to happen and it never goes ahead.
Kylie, THE showgirl!
It's been three days since I went to the Kylie-Showgirl concert and I'm still on a high. Certainly made it the best bank holiday of my life, and allowed me to delve into my camp side.
From the moment Kylie came on stage, opening with 'Better The Devil You Know', to the moment she left (two hours and two encores later) me and my friend Wendy were up dancing and singing along with the rest of Earls Court. No one (except the two grumpy old gits next to me) wanted it to end.
Still now I'm finding it hard express how I felt for those two hours. It didn't seem real.....I was actually there....After a seven month wait...singing with/along to Kylie in all her camp pop glory! Still got the marks on my arm from Wend gripping me so tight. The girl's still got it!
Think the best part for me, apart from the (male)dancers in the showers/workout room, was her comming out of the stage on a crescent moon and singing 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow' (Stereotypical I know). The moon slowly rises as the song goes on, glides forward across the stage and puts her down on the walk way in the middle of the crowd. Kylie then goes into a slow version of 'Come Into My world'. I got the shivers!
If you get the chance I would say GO!
