Wow wow wow. Japan has exceeded my expectations. Its so quirky and straight all at the same time. I am so in love with it :) :) :)

Tonight we are soaking up the everything that Tokyo has to offer. The superstars - Idris, George, Tom Brady, the two Brads - Brad Pitt and Bradley Cooper, Daniel, Meryl and Rachel Hunter are joining us in a karaoke box complete with dancing poles, tambourine, microphones, your favourite cocktails and an impressive database of English, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese hits. Its going to be a very special evening :D :D :D

Over the weekend we need to get busy clocking up lots of kms. When we get on the steamer, we are on the open sea for 22 days crossing the Pacific ocean to San Francisco. We are in need of extra kms for day trips :) :)

Happy Travels everyone :) :) :)

3k from me today. For the sake of everyone's ears I think I'll give the kareoke a miss but looking forward to a few easy going day trips over the coming week.

I have a voice like a foghorm Garfield, so I'll leave my "singing" til we're onboard the steamer! :D

Are you ready to clock up some mega K's this weekend, so we have have some nice, easy going day trips? :)

Well it must be my turn for Daniel tonight. Flossie must have finished with him by now!

I have only managed a disappointing 10917 steps, 7.3 kms. The rain has returned and brought with it a blinding headache so not on top form.

Hoping for a good walk tomorrow to get some calories to spend on my curry!

Off to look for Daniel.

Not disappointing at all Bu-dog, especially with a splitting headache! I hope you're feeling much better now and that Daniel lived up to expectations :)

7.08 km from me today, won't be too much over the weekend as still breathing difficulties, but maybe some walks in the pouring rain ☔?????!!!!!

Don't push yourself too far Elissy. I'm not sure walking in the rain will be good for your chest! Your numbers are always fab! :)

Just the 9.4km for Idris and me today. Dined at a Michelin starred restaurant, drank alcohol, ate cheese, what-evs. Only my birthday weekend once a year and that's what I've been saving calories for all week. Worth it? Hell yeah! 😀

I am a broken woman now both physically and financially. Some good news though - bought some trousers in Asda size 24 but they were labelled wrong and are in fact size 22 and they fit :D This time last year I was wearing size 32!

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply tosueper

Woohoo! What a happy stroke of luck! 5 sizes smaller! WTG you! :)

I'm thrilled for you Sueper, because it's things like that that make it all worthwhile. In another year, you'll be wearing 12's!! OMG! :)

sueper profile image
sueper in reply tomoreless

I couldn't imagine being a 12, but then to be honest I didn't expect to be a 22 ever again! Never say never :D

I have 2 pairs of size 12 jeans in my wardrobe, which I would dearly love to fit into again, so I shan't give up til I do! :)

Good morning Lizzy and moreless :-)

For Friday I managed to get out for a little walk which was nice after not being able to walk or run and managed to do 3.8 kms yesterday :-)

I'm very pleased with this as my body is on the mend and I am going to try out a run today and see how things go so will check in later tonight with my kms for today :-)

Happy travels everyone :-)

in reply totrafford1

Take it easy t1 - hope the run goes ok and you are back on the mend :-)

trafford1 profile image
trafford1 in reply to

Thanks lucca :-) I have had to restrain myself for long enough. I am listening to my mind and it's telling me to exercise and my body feels up to it now. I have literally not done anything for two days straight and yesterday I managed a little more kms than the previous two days so it's about time I get moving again :-)

Glad I took the time to rest as my body has fixed it's self a lot faster than I could have imagined YAY :-)

in reply totrafford1

It's really frustrating isn't it ! Still, it was probably for the best to rest it up, however annoyed it made you feel :-)

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply totrafford1

Hi T1, I'm so pleased that you feel that you're on the mend now. I shall keep my fingers crossed that your decision to try a run was a good one, because I'd hate to hear you'd suffered a setback.

Take care :)

Hi. 6.2k for Friday. Not very energetic k's 'strolling' with friends, but lots of laughter, which I hope also burns more cals?

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply toMrscaw

You could have sat with your friends drinking tea and eating cake, so a stroll with lots of laughter is infinitely preferable! :)

Morning all :-)

Yesterday's totals are 5.8k run and 4.3k dog walk = 10.1k.

Mr L did 2k again - I've told him that unless he bucks his ideas up he will be tied to a dancing pole and hit repeatedly with a tambourine whilst listening to moreless singing Korean karaoke hits from the 1970s.

He has promised to walk the dog a lot further today... ;-)

trafford1 profile image
trafford1 in reply to

You have seriously made me laugh lucca, imagining moreless singing Korean karaoka hits from the 70's :-) :-) :-) :-)

Great numbers by the way lucca. I would like to achieve something similar to you today :-)

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply totrafford1

I don't know why that should make you laugh T1? I'll have you know my rendition of "Because I'm a girl", has audiences weeping ;) :D

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to

Oh the punishment would be much worse than that Lucca, not only would he have to suffer my singing, but he'd have to watch me, in my spandex, contorting my blubber on the pole! Without doubt, a fate worse than death! :D

Good job you're super fit and able to cover for him :D

So today my fitbit died:( hoping that restart will sort it out. Estimated steps therefore as I wandered around Manchester in the rain and then attended a cocktail masterclass - so walking after that was a bit swirly! I reckon about 3.5 kms based on what I normally do and the google map distance checker. Daiquiris anyone?

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply toSaga66

Aarrgghh!! What a nightmare! Fingers crossed for the restart!

If there was ever a masterclass to attend, a cocktail one would be it! Strawberry daquiri for me please :)
