Southampton parkrun, mostly walked.

[SueAppleRun]

What a lovely day I've had. Mudita11 and I arranged to meet for Southampton parkrun. It's less far than I thought and I had a lovely quiet drive down. We mostly walked and chatted because I'm still a bit chesty but it was great, lovely course too, nice path, lots of trees. This father Christmas was playing tunes, a few people were in festive clothes, everyone was happy and welcoming.

We went for breakfast after then after a while it was time to come home again after going in and meeting Mudita11 's new cat who is utterly gorgeous.

Happy Christmas and run happy or rest well.

Very brave to venture on the M27 today SueAppleRun . You and Mudita11 look very festive in your jumpers and lovely to have walked and chatted. I recall that cafe does a lovely cake 🍰! Merry Christmas to you both.

Happy Christmas Annie, really noticed my chest when we ran but was feeling fine walking and lovely to meet up and then breakfast after

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10]

Love those photos! Fantastic to have such a Christmassy feel-so glad you’re recovered enough to have done that parkrun. Great looking breakfast too! ❤️

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to MissUnderstanding]

It was a great day out, I love driving and the roads were empty this morning early, great to catch up with running friend, the parkrun course is very different to my local seafront ones, I loved running amongst trees with no wind in my face, I was shattered when I got home, now Mondays Worthing parkrun, and fun to go in a Christmas jumper too. Happy Christmas Miss U 😁

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

That sounds perfect!

Happy Christmas to you too! 🎄

[Mudita11 Graduate10]

It was a great day SueAppleRun , thanks again for coming. We’ll do another run together soon for sure 👌🏻 xx

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Mudita11]

We certainly will, and I'll run more next time xx

All looks and sounds very festive 😊and the weather looks great - unlike the constant rain and wind we have here in Scotland 🙄 I hope you enjoy spending time with your family SueAppleRun - have a good Christmas!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to 59er]

We've been lucky with the weather, but it s windy out there today, thanks and have a lovely Christmas yourself 😃

We're all up for cat photos Mudita11 🐱👍

🎄🐱 Xmas Katnap 🐱🎄

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Katnap]

You can have one of mine although handsome he's not as pretty as Mudita's

Cat

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Ours got a new bed for Xmas

Cat bed.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Katnap]

Yours is beautiful and looks cozy in the new bed, I've bought several different styles over the years, when it's new he gets straight in, sleeps for a while, gets out never to look at it again, he sleeps on the sofa or my lap now

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Maybe he would prefer the box the bed arrived in 🤣

Ours is a dog-cat. He doesn't do boxes at all 😯

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Katnap]

Mines not bothered about boxes either, he's recently taken to sitting on my lap, and enjoying being stroked, I'm wary though as he tends to scratch and bite if I stop stroking him too soon

[Mudita11 Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

How about this one Katnap ? 🥰

Daisy

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Mudita11]

She looks like a show cat! ❤️

[Mudita11 Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

Her previous owner does show this breed but Daisy has a non-perfect tail 🤣 so didn’t make the grade. Thank goodness as it meant we could have her xx
