Still full of cold and feeling sorry for myself, but still managing a passable number of daily steps. Today I'm not quite so stuffy and, as is it wasn't raining for the first time in days, I took Monroe out for a stroll so hopefully my steps will be better today.

A lovely postcard - I love this part in the film and the statues look amazing. Reminds me a bit of Jason and the Argonauts, only much more up to date!

Awesome! I love that part of the film too!! Makes me want to watch the trilogy again! Wish they were on Netflix again! I have the DVDs but don’t have dvd player anymore.

Hope you feel better soon 🥰

I am the opposite. We don't have Netflix, but we do have a DVD player, which I have only just worked out how to link up to my SMART TV, both me and Al are totally useless with SMART tech being the couple of old farts that we are 😂

I have a two week break from work (which I can't wait for!) over Yuletide and I feel some binge watching coming on, which is fine as long as I get my steps in. I suppose I could watch whilst walking on the treadmill mind 🤣🤣🤣

Yes you totally could watch while on treadmill!! 😂 I sometimes watch true crime docs on YouTube while on elliptical, I did that last week!

Hope you have a wonderful Yuletide break and happy holidays to you and yours 🥰

I love your posts and it's so great that you have watched the films and this bit is one of your favourites... I haven't watched any of the films but I am enjoying walking it... My husband is the real fan of the books... I wanted to get to know the story a different way and it's been a glorious adventureIts really good to hear that you are starting to get better 💕💕💕💕

just spotted your postcard post and it reminded me of some geological structures in Iceland! They’re popping up now again, as social media attention has focussed on Iceland’s volcanic geological structures and eruptions. (I really feel for the people in Grindavik, who had to leave their homes in this Christmas period.

Hope your stuffy nose is getting better. My colds and flus have not been common this winter season, so I’m hoping for a few more snuffle-free and Covid free months!

Great walking! It’s so good to read how it’s a real part of you! (I’m not quite there yet, but have made immense progress. So all good! 😀)

Thank you 🙏 I've had a couple of not too great days, but I feel like I am turning the corner now. I'm just hoping to get away with not getting worse PVF again 😔🤞😔I'm with you on the poor population of Grindavik. What a misery, especially in the festive season 😪

Not what you're looking for?
