The moon in blue

..for no reason other than it was there when I returned this afternoon, having been to the climbing wall, Lidl, Aldi and Asda in search of bargains.

It's been eight days since I've been climbing the walls (haha) and it showed, I need to keep up the twice a week routine.  When I get there I do some stretching and then do a couple of easy routes to warm up properly, and then something that I want to try but know that I need to tackle before I get even a little tired. 

It happens when I go walking, and it happens when I go to the climbing wall, I begin and initially feel that I'm not doing well.  In the case of walking I have to wait for my 'second wind' after about 20 minutes.  In the case of the wall I can't grip the holds, reach far enough, make the dynamic moves required, get my feet all wrong... but after a while it's ok and I can manage all of the above.  I have still to finish a green route though.  But I will soon.

Two phone calls with S today, and he is still  the man with the gorgeous voice.  Weird isn't it?  Last weekend I told him about Bowie and the squiffy teeth... he said he'd have to examine his own teeth to check if they were straight :-)
