Hi, birdies! Had a bit off,still have lots to do. Don't know yet what happened to tenants, sister was in shock when she called me just hour or so after he was found. Anyway, I'm thinking about the marathon, and thinking I need to bring my pinch hitter (SIL). I pay his way, he does the work, and he's GORGEOUS (and devoted to my daughter). He loves marathons, triathalons, bikathons, everything. I can even sleep in the same room with him!! (No danger there!) I'm so excited about your plans I'm actually pulling out all my expensive exercise equipment!. Not allowed to walk far, Hubs afraid I'll have an accident, but what he doesn't know doesn't hurt him. Berit is always up for an adventure! Hurray for you GIRLS! I'm proud of you.

Morning all
OMHG I am so excited about the mini marathon I could hardly sleep all night. I dreamt I was being chased by a somalian taxi driver whilst I was wearing a wet duffle coat! It is very hard to run in a wet duffle coat I tell you. I am going to start my training today. If there is going to be quite a few of us we will need to think about the accomodation - should we stay in city centre or wha?. Well we got plenty of time to organise that side of things.
I will be there for a month at least so if anyone wants to come to Galway for a few days afterwards that'd be cool.

Oney
We will put our thinking caps on about the accomodation. I will do a bit of research. If there are a lot of us we could stay in Trinity College accomodation but that is kind of dorm type accomodation which is fine short term and cheap(ish) but basic. They might not have the pool and spa treatments that we will require after our exertion though. Starting I was going to go for 2 months but I cant leave my dog for that long! I can work from there so thats not a problem and my kids are teenagers now so I can leave them (or kill them). My daughter will probably come over at some point (she is 17) so she might run with us too if she is there then. I mean WALK. We will see. Yeah come to Galway One two and bring the kids too. Starting will you be able to stay on for a few days. I will get my hands on a car so I can show you around.
OMG how many more sleeps?

I am a tax consultant and I write tax opinions which I can do from anywhere. Its a bit like a legal opinion but on tax issues. Usually its for people who are up shit creek without a paddle with the Revenue and I have to try find them a paddle or a life raft or even a passing log. Ambulance at the bottom of the cliff type stuff!

Thats a good start oney, when I find one that looks OK I will let you have it if you want. I think that most plans are about 12 weeks so we do have some time. But i dont want to lose any inspiration
