Lunching it out with the heat and the Olympics...!

in #inleo4 months ago

So I got back home on Monday evening, from a week of being away, for work and play, I actually drove back on Monday evening, getting back home at 23.30 specifically so I could get on with a productive working day early Tuesday a.m.

However I wasn't overly successful with the productivity because of, or rather because I blame the damned heat!

It's been hot!

It's been hot and sunny here in the south of the UK for the last week or so.

We've had a wait until fairly deep into summer for the heat but it's all the sweeter because of the wait!

I did manage to get out for a run before it got too insane at around 10.00 a.m. and managed a pretty good time too, nose breathing, last KM a little tough.

Oh and I got a wash on and did my favorite drying activity.... in the garden, love this!

But then... it was getting hot and I had the urge for croissants and coffee, so I wandered to the shop...

And then I got back and well, the Olympics were on, and come on, what a perfectly lovely combo - croissants and coffee and whatever - BMX, rowing, gymnastics, clay shooting, ALL of them.

And I did 0 work somehow until 16.30 and then I thought... 'PUB'.

So I headed to the pub for a couple of beers which became about seven beers and dinner and more Olympics and that was that, what a day!

And today....

MORE HEAT!

But actually given my hangover I'm reasonably please with what I've got done... I did do another this time bacon sandwich, coffee and croissant run and that sorted me right out, then some Triathlon, great WIN for the Brit I must say.

And then a doze and I did actually manage two hours of work, which is infinitely better than yesterday so happy days.

These lunch out days are great

I've just loved it, but back to it (work that is) tomorrow, and working out properly and also house tidying.

It's gonna be a little cooler, but for now I am heading out for a little early evening stroll before dinner, and maybe some more Olympics.

7 glasses of beer is probably the same as 1 bottle of vodka. Did you have a good day!

Oh yes a lovely evening was had!

Sounds like a good day. I'm not really into the heat and try to get my runs done early to avoid it. The Olympics is great. I see people saying they are not into it, but I find it joyful.

Yeah I know what you mean - Decathlon tomo I think love that! Takes me back to Daly Thompson!

These people do such amazing things. I remember Daley well.

Loved the trampolining today, that looks like the most fun event so far, one of anyway, up there with the kayaking.

The kayaking is great. It's like slalom skiing, but they go both ways (!). There's some limbo dancing going on to get under the poles.

I just love it!

It is true that it is the most time at home and when we go out to buy things, it is a lot of trouble. It is good to travel to another place and get new experience in life.

And I did 0 work somehow until 16.30 and then I thought... 'PUB'.

Perfect day!

Pretty much, and I even had a vaguely constructive day yesterday!
