Autumn run

Four miles (ish - going by timing and need to look out the magic satellite device to tell exactly) at lunchtime today. It's nice when I can get away from my desk, even if I do return bright red and shiny in a way that may not inspire confidence in my pronouncements to colleagues. Went down the Devon Way to where the tarmac ends and back. Next time maybe I'll make the turn off to the stables. I was inspired by feeling particularly fat last night at dinner in my previously-favourite-now-too-tight jeans. Something Must Be Done.

In other news, have found a lovely house to rent in Muckhart! The letting agent is an idiot who could tell us nothing useful about the heating, council tax or use of the garage and who told us the gardener was included in the rent, which turned out to be far, far from the truth. So I explained we couldn't afford it with all the extras he piled on at the last minute. Next day he called back and offered an affordable (just) price, so warmth and dryness and millions of (ok, five) bedrooms await. Very excited.

Off to do the horse tonight. She's just started back in work and is allowed 15 mins of walking twice a day. Last time she only freaked out once, which is an improvement.
