Uphill and Hallelujah!

After having to take another week break (migraine - grrrr, day out at Ashes cricket at Edgbaston - YAY!!) finally got out again this morning.

After the first five minutes, there was a 10 minute plod up a long slow hill - and when I say 'plod', I really do mean 'plod' - chuffed to bits to make it up there!

When I got home It's Raining Men came on the shuffle (you can take the girl out of the 80s etc...) and I'm not ashamed to admit I sang (loosely speaking) along at the top of my voice and danced around the hall too.

Hallelujah indeed!! (If only it really WAS raining men!!)

Go you!! Well done. I avoid all hills - easy to do in my neck of the woods. Shame we don't get footage of the rain dance in the hall, it would've been fun :)
