Yesterday was my first run in a week following a cold, so just a gentle 5K on the local pavements. 🏃‍♀️I had to share a couple of photos of the very lovely “book exchange” that I run past on this route - a lovingly restored old phone box and a very beautiful thing!😍

As always, it was good to get out again after a short break before an afternoon of diy and then THE MATCH!⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿😬😢 So sad it ended the way it did, especially for the team themselves but massively proud of what they achieved!❤️🙂

I keep meaning to pop back when I’m not mid- run! I wonder if there might be a running book in there?😉🙂

There seems to be loads of people around atm with colds!

Lovely run Sandra 👍 in our village we use the phone box for books too, it’s very popular.

I couldn’t watch the penalty shoot-out, far too stressful 🙈

Yep, lots of the children are sniffing at school!😬😧 and a few staff members have been off with non- COVID infections. Nearly at the end of term…🤞

How lovely Sandra, that library looks well organised.

Watched every minute of the footie and so proud of our lads. We should be celebrating the fact they came so far. ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

That book exchange looks great I would be distracted and read rather than run 😬
