well i'm back and didn't want to come home!

I have just spent the last week on a coach tour of southern Ireland. The weather was fine but overcast most of the time.

The highlight for me was a trip to Blarney Castle. No I didn't kiss the stone, there were too many americans queing for that privilage, and anyway I can already talk the hind legs off a donkey lol.

We have been all over Cork.Cobh. Kinsale, Cashel and a few others as well. The only disapointment is that Ireland has lost a lot of its charm,due to all the building work going on, there must be thousands of miles of new roads, shops, and hotels.

please have a look  at the photos, the wishing steps are supposed to grant wishes to those who go up and down backwards with their eyes shut!. I will let you know if my wish comes true,as I did it. 

I am rather pleased with myself in  way as I have only put on 4lbs in weight , I thought it would be more as we've seem to have done nothing but eat and more so drink!!!

I have joined the lose 1lb a week to christmas challenge over on the diet and fitness boards and am looking forward to it. My whole sense of well being and trying to do the best for `me` that left me over the summer has returned.

I am now looking towards a fitter healthier happier me.

to this end i have promise myself a massage when i have lost half a stone, so i had better get off my butt and do some exercise - walking the dogs today gym tomorrow.

next week will be a problem though as i am on a coach trip to Ireland, where the `food`comes in a glass! oh well will just have to walk everywhere.
