Dying from this cold. We went to decathlon in a desperate attempt to find something for Ray's bro. Ray (and now Laurence) treats going to certain shops the way others treat a trip to a museum or castle or something. Read and examine everything - we were there for 90mins. Lucy and I were bored stiff so we went around testing all of the gear out. I was showing off my skateboarding skills when I went absolutely flying and landed on my wrist. If anyone sees me on "you've been framed", let me know cause I'd like the money - I earned it, it was bloody sore.

Got a cold. Dying.

Felt shite all day at work. Really achey all over, and could not stop shivering last night. Went for a pre Christmas party jog. Work to top of Castro, down the back of Holyrood to Abbeyhill, up via Calton terrace to Calton hill in the dark, down Jacobs ladder, up the royal mile to the drawbridge and back to work. I felt better than I thought I would.

On to the work Christmas do. I think I have worked out who Andoug is, but was too shy to introduce myself. Stayed sober enough to cycle home.

Hill reps with Ray. 12 x 1 min on Castro. Ouch.

Along the canal from work. This felt like a massive effort. Sub 8min miling, just.

Meadows, crags, radical road and back. Fun.
