Something to do...

(Blatant showing off of medals alert 🤣)

I’ve been wondering what to do with our bling for ages. My little sconce they were hanging from was nice but no one but me could see them and much as I like the specially made hangers on Amazon/Ebay we really needed a one size fits all hanger. So whilst we were socially distancing in B&Q on Friday I found this board and they are now proudly hanging up in the downstairs loo. Just needs Katnap’s medals now 😊

Ooooo look at that TC - awesome! 😍😍 What a great idea. 👍😀

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Yeah, I just couldn’t make my mind up on the fancy ones. There wasn’t one suitable for both of us and the medals should speak for themselves really. And it has the added bonus of being a lot cheaper! 😁

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to TailChaser]

You’ve inspired me to do something about mine too. They’re all bunched up on a pretty retro ceramic “J” hook but no-one can see them individually. I only have 7 but I’m proud of them all. ❤️

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

And so you should be, particularly any from this year as they are rare as hens teeth. I have about the same as you cheeky but I may fish out my two very old Flora Light Run medals to pad it out a bit as they’ve never been on show! Great stuff 👍👍🏅🏅🏅

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to TailChaser]

Yes fish those babies out TC. 👍 They were well earned and need to be out on show with the rest! 🎉

I feel like I should say I have 6 really, as I got 2 for the Bath HM - one from them and the “I Ran It Anyway” 13.1m one. But no, it’s staying! Can’t mess with bling can you? 😅 🏅

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

😁Definitely not, you earned both of them whichever way you look at it. Think of all the people who didn’t do it anyway!👍

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to TailChaser]

Yes indeed. They didn’t earn a medal did they? 👍

[Irishprincess Graduate10]

Nice one TC! I’ve been thinking of making my own. I’ve got one hanging in the downstairs loo too but it’s groaning atm and I fancy stretching my creative muscles.... now wheres’s that old wooden planter....🤔🏅

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Irishprincess]

I remember yours IP, it’s lovely! With lockdown ours aren’t going to groan for a very long time so I just thought we should go for it. Good luck with it 👍😊

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Brilliant set of bling. Visitors will be able to give them all their undivided attention if we are ever allowed into each others house again. Happy running 🤗

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Happy running to to you GH 😊

I seem to remember that pop stars used to put their gold records on their toilet walls, so it seemed appropriate 😁 Hopefully we’ll have visitors again one day, otherwise it might just be the plumber!

🤣🤣

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

Great bling to admire while having a pee. Much better than reading a paper🤣🎖🏅🏅

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

🤣🤣 definitely Buddy 🤣🤣

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

A great find TC. I’ve been looking for something suitable as mine are hanging on my full length mirror. The hangers I’ve seen are a bit twee but this is great.

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

I know exactly what you mean Dexy, this is nice and simple.

[Mum22boys Graduate10]

Ooo that's a nice haul of medals 🏅 and definitely need to be visible... hopefully by someone... soon!!! Although it's amazing how quickly the thought of going into someone elses home seems strange!

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Mum22boys]

You’re right there M. There were supposed to be quite a few more by now too, only one is from this year 😩 just got to keep this running lark going haven’t we?

[Leosmit Graduate10 60minGraduate]

Fab medals!

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Leosmit]

Thanks Leo 😊 There will be more...one day... 🙏

[Raspberrypink Graduate10]

That’s a very impressive collection. Definitely needs to show them off!

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Raspberrypink]

Thank you RP! Definitely 😁

[Sandie1961 Graduate10]

Mine are still hanging over my reading lamp. Really must do something about them too!

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Sandie1961]

Yes, otherwise your reading lamp will get lower and lower Sandie, and you have to make way for next years 🤞🤞🤞

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

Great collection of medals TC, but why have them in the loo, have them hanging in the hall where visitors entering the house will know that they have entered a runner's house, you can proudly show them to everyone who visits you.

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

I did think about that Al but they’ll get dustier in there and...😱faded😱. The downstairs loo is like a cupboard and then they will be fresh as a daisy when we finally get visitors again 😊

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10]

That’s a great look TC! And a great way of brightening up the loo as well!

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Oldgirlruns]

Exactly OG! I was going to get a picture but these are much more decorative and will hopefully get updated occasionally 😊

[Fabulous450 Graduate10]

Fantastic TailChaser!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽✨✨✨ What a brilliant idea. It looks amazing! 🥰 It’s very nice to see there’s room for more too!! 💥💥❤️

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Fabulous450]

Thanks Fab! Katnap has just added his medals but there is still some space, we just need the events to return🤞🤞🤞
