Virtual Challenge - Europe from top to bottom!

[Northerner]

I did a five mile walk yesterday after work, it wasn't actually raining so I had no choice but to get out there.

Great stuff Alison! 🙂 Hope the arm is mending well.

Hi Alan, first time contributing to this thread, woo!

In the last week I have done:

1 x 6 mile walk
4 x 4 mile walks

Excellent Shiv! 🙂 I've done a couple of 5 mile runs since posting the last update, plus three Gay Gaspers

Still strapped up and will be for a week or two yet. The drugs are good though, I still hurt but I don't care.😎

Another 5 mile run and a Gay Gasper

Another 3 mile wander yesterday.

Turned out quite interesting cos I spotted David Hasselhoff strutting his stuff down the High Street wondering why no-one was impressed. Well, when I say no-one was impressed, I mean the locals (you could spot them easily, they were the ones wearing t-shirts cos it was a positively tropical 63 degrees F here yesterday). The tourists were all of a dither, but I suspect that's because most of them just now are German and he's apparently big out there. Still, it kept me amused. He's not as tall as I thought, maybe he shrank.

I hope your police promised to take him into custody under "disturbing the peace" if he attempted to sing.

I'd have gone a bought a gun if he had, I've heard him! But no, he was just strutting down the High making like the Big I AM and looking decidedly disappointed at the underwhelmed reactions he got.

Baywatch and Knight Rider probably didn't make it up to your neck of the woods 😉 I wonder what he was doing there?

I'm afraid they did, and I dunno, looking like Nessie perhaps?

Do you ever remember that advert where I believe Russ Abbot? was playing Des O-Connor records into a stream in order to scare the fish into his fishing net.

(not that I can remember exactly what the advert was for, probably some tobacco product)

Maybe the HOff was trying the same - playing his music into Loch Nessie to make Nessie jump out?

Ops, have we gone off topic here?

Hehe! Just chat along the journey! 🙂

Stayed in Garda. It has a nice promenade to Bardolino and beyond - ideal for a run before breakfast.

Also visited Malcesina, Riva, Sirmeone - and Gardaland for some great white knuckle rides!

Also had excursions to Venice and the Dolomites - the coach took us over 6000 feet up into the South Tyrol, and stopped and Bolzano where there is an exhibition about Otzi, the man found preserved in the ice for 5000 years - the science and mysteries are facinating.

Have to agree the lake and surrounding mountains are really beautiful - highly recommended.

i hope you really like it there when i lived in italy i use to go in malcesine every week end and we went to gardaland last year with graham

[Andy HB]

I haven't been doing much rowing since my last post. But I have been walking regularly each day.

I can add another 100 miles to the total (that's an average of 4 miles a day for the last 25 days).

Andy 🙂

Excellent Andy, we must be almost ready for an update thanks to your contribution 🙂 How are the calves doing these days? (Not the small bovines! 😉)
