(Thursday) No short cuts today, 7/3, surging forwards accompanied by my trusty valet pulling the tartan musical instrument trolley. (If we can nick it from Nanna.) Other instruments also welcome if you want to play your own. Forwards for the freedom of all!

Good luck, Sir. Slowly but steadily we progress. Our army builds, to the sound of the bugles. I move closer, conquering 9/2 today myself. Currently resting for Friday's 9/3. We shall not fail. With chocolate milk we fight on. Onward! *bugles forlornly*
Still a bit knack'd this morning. Thought that was the sound of 'budgies' not bugle. How many budgies would it take to lift and carry me the course? Certainly they'd be pretty forlorn. To be quite honest the way I'm feeling I think I'd rather take part in a real Forlorn Hope and end it all within seconds not 25 minutes. I'll have half strength banana milk if I get back. Get nan to pick some up from Gary when she pops to town for me.

I am speechless. Unless they're on the way to warmer climes can we have them for the tartan trolley? Thanks chap.

Such levels of prognostication have not been used for many a moon. The dark side pulls me under.

Sir today I did it I infiltrated the enemies camp, I have copies of their next attack plans, have sent them to you via scout bunny with battle dog for extra protection. Good luck and on we fight.
Oh, Corporal spoonierunning well done old bean. I await scout bunny and battle dog. So, Second Lieutenant Spoonierunning, it must feel good.
It does indeed feel good

I hadda feeling that tonight would be a good night if I just stopped vacillating, got on with it and lived without recriminations and calls of cowardice from the troops. So, accompanied by musicians, tartan trolley and weather balloon full of instruments I went for it. Week 7 over. Please don't tell me how long the wicked Bluey wants from me next week.

Well done Doss old bean. Well done. From what I remember it's about 3 mins more, that's all. As Andy Williams sang "almost there, we're almost there." Btw was I wrong to take out my bow & arrow & shoot down the weather balloon this morning? It was making such a racket.
'Snigger'. Nice one Captain Waletta. Corporal poppypug (ents div) has serious competition! I've never seen Andy Williams out of a rocking chair, or is that Val or Perry?
get on you tube - you are thinking of Val.
I asked Nanna. She said she thought it was that nice young lady from Blue Peter.
Tell Nanna the nice young lady from Blue Peter called Val didn't have rocking chair. It was the chap who knew about paddy's goat.
For real a goat?

Ha ha Dozz Anyway ( serious face ) how did you find it today ? xxx
Hard going. Tartan trolley helped.cw shot down the weather balloon halfway through - didn't know what it was and it was making too noise. Managed though, rather proud.
Yep, I agree, it does get a bit relentless at this stage.
You can do it Dozz xxx
Doubt I'll reach C25K in 30 mins this decade though. Thanks for encouragement, go you too!
Who knows what we can do when we put our minds to it I can do the 30mins I think, but I will have to work on doing that and the 5k together We are strong and fearless Dozz xxx
Oh faithful Corporal poppypug (ents div). You spur me on and encourage me in my endeavours. Just think you will soon be a Lieutenant!
I do ? I will ? When ? xxx
Oh yes. On graduation you are moved into officer ranks.
F-A- B ! Will I be a first Lieutenant or a Second Lieutenant though ? Whats the difference ? Can I still play my bongos or do I have to learn the fife and drum ? xxx
Until I finish you will be a Second Lieutenant. Then you will be a complete one. You can play any instruments you like, even bagpipes.
Oh Im always playing the bagpipes, I think I will take up the pan pipes instead xxx
Ace, or kazoo would be fun too.
Hey, Im not touching the kazoo with a bargepole, look what happened to McCauley Culkin ! xxx
