Looks lovely I have tried running with an iPad but found it chafed something rotten.

I run with my Garmin forerunner 25 and then it syncs to I pad. I certainly couldn’t run with mine as it to big to attach to me. It would be like carrying a lap top hee! hee! 😀😀

That looks lovely. well done! I do like the terrain view of the run. Was it very muddy. I can't run across country here, the muddy bits are on the steep bits and the gates are impassable. i did it a few weekends ago and nearly came a cropper several times. A girl I passed was wearing wellies and said she had fallen. I was over the tops of my trail shoes in mud. x

PS: I see you are syncing to ipad. You can take a screen shot and save and upload it, rather than photograph the actual ipad. On of and volume button together i think, can't remember, as sync to my phone.

It was a Dansette record player in my day. My grandmother had a radiogram, radio in the bottom and turntable in the top with a horn shaped arm and needles in a tin with his master's voice and the Jack Russell on - seriously!

I just love hearing these stories of life during the blitz

[Hidden in reply to pinkaardvark]

😜 Im not THAT old, but my mother spent her teenage years listening to the radiogram and smoking i.llicit Woodbines, or so Im told.

Cheeky! hee!😀

It looks cat's cradle like to me. If you know what I mean. Maybe you don't. Maybe theres only me knows what a cat's cradle is. blush

I remember well the HMV record player which spun shellac discs at 78 rpm. We had one, and it was actually a fox terrier, rather than a Jack Russell (nerdy factoid there) We never had a radiogram though as my mother thought they were too fangled. LOL She bought us a tiny, tiny Parlophone job which came in a small red leather train case, with cream piping. We had that beauty for ages before she took pity on us and got us a fab new one, an ITT KB.

My mate had a Dansette, which we adored and fawned over as we were all so goddam jealous. We had Dansette nights at her house, and many an afternoon after swimming club. It was pillar box red. I still have all my vinyl collection and still play em, except the ones I wore out of course, on a newish record player, having Freecycled my Toshiba turntable for a better one

There's something real about records you can get your hands on! Love mine! We have my husband's collection too so plenty to dance to. Not that he does!

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

Yes my grandfather had one of those and it lasted for many years. Those were the best days .😀😀

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

Yes misswobble your right it does look like a cats cradle! And yes I do remember the cats cradle. Loved playing it in the school playground hee! hee!😀😀

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

Youre right, it is a fox terrier! And I had one of those foldup stereo things for my 21st. It was called a stereo minor. The Dansette was great because you could stack records. I still prefer the sound of vinyl.

Edit looked a bit like this uk.images.search.yahoo.com/...

Actually, I see a couple in our local park doing it. Is it part of tai chi or sommat? Or are they just knitters enjoying fresh air? If I seem again I'll ask

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

Cool ! Let me know!😀😀
