Run 1:10:00 [3] 10.0 km (7:00 / km)
A standard weekend's run on bush tracks at Boho South in the Strathbogies, but done in the reverse direction to normal. What used to seem like a flattish downhill run seemed positively mountainous coming the other way. The area has cool, tall peppermint forest and is always about 8 degrees cooler than the lowlands, so it is nice on a hot day. However, with the temperature in the low 20s, Peter was freezing and had to run in a polar fleece! We then had a picnic at Lima Falls (which had no falls as the area is very very dry).
An "acquaintance" came by today and made an offer on my house. Something to think about as I have been postponing the inevitable. I like the house - it was originally built by Laurie Edwards of Bendigo Orienteers and has a full wall of windows (orienteering people must go for indoor/outdoor living) and I have fully renovated it. But my life isn't here anymore.
And his offer was a bit low - and I probably should add on a bit more for pain, suffering and legal fees. Why? Because this person once thought it would be a huge joke to tell the checkout girl in Coles, while I was queuing and he was rushing out the door, that I had put a bag of M&Ms in my bag. The young checkout girl was caught short and didn't know what to do. She didn't believe me when I said he was joking and then made me empty out my bag. I am waiting for the day when we are both in Safeway together and I'll be able to call out "Hey, that man just put a Mars Bar down his pants.." before running off.....
