Saturday

On the road, and sweltering.

We had a nice relaxed night yesterday, at a barbeque round pete & em's. I even treated myself to a glass of wine (see that boat- it's pushed right out!) Turns out iced tea is an excellent beer substitute- much less sickly than most other drinks, & great for hydrating.

Speaking of hydrating, water intake's going to be all important today - tom's driving us up just now and it's very hot indeed, so keeping the levels topped right up is order of the day.

Latest weather reports are still hot, but mercifully predicting some rain showers in the early afternoon tomorrow. C'mon Scotland- surely a bit of rain isn't too much to ask for!

Alex is making us home made lasagna this eve (star!), then an early night. As you might tell from the way this post is jumping about between different topics, the nerves are back. Hopefully a nice chilled out eve will settle them down so we can get a decent sleep.

Today's mantra: it's just another run.

It's just another run.
