Roast Pumpkin

Hallowe'en is nearly upon us so I have decided to try making roast pumpkin.

A coating of butter, a little brown sugar and salt and bake for about 40 mins. Tastes so good!!! mmmm!

DoleLESS

So I have a new job at a company called WorldPay so no longer claiming benefits.

But I plan on updating this blog as and when I feel like it. Watch this space! 

Royal Parks Half Marathon

I've been training so hard for this race trying to get a personal best of around 1:52:00. Everything was going great up till the half way point. I was way ahead of my target time and I thought I would be able to slow down a bit in the second half. And slow down I did! Actually to a walk! By mile 12 I hit 'the wall' and just couldn't run anymore and ended up walking for a few minutes. In the end I only managed to come in 1:55:23. So I'm still a minute slower than my pb. I admit I'm a little disappointed but just happy it's over. Today was tough.

As you can see it was game over by mile 12 when I 'hit the wall'

1:55:23 - Happy it's over! 

Dippy

Last weekend I took £60 out from the cash machine. I took my card but then walked away without taking the money. I only realised this when I went to pay for my coffee and realised I had no money. How dippy am I?!

Anyway, its a good thing it was quite early on a Sunday morning when it's not busy. The cash machine luckily sucks the money back into the wall if it's not claimed within a certain time frame.

But when I checked my bank account I could see that it had debited, then credited, then debited my account. So after working with my bank I finally got it resolved today and got my £60 back.

Geesh, I'm so dippy!
