Sunday 22 February.
I watched 'Match of the Day' while Moira made our week-end full English breakfast. I went to the gym again this morning and Moira went the other way, to Lidl, to do more shopping; she wanted to get her shopping done over the week-end as we plan to go for a walk tomorrow and on Tuesday we are going for a bus trip to Santa Cruz in the far north of the island.
The weather wasn't too good as I made my way to the gym; lots of cloud overhead and a bit on the cool side. I was back to a extensive warm up up with the dumbbells, making sure the ends were on tight. I worked on my biceps, triceps, shoulders, deltoids and wrists, gradually increasing the size of the dumbbells up to 6kg. After that I practised my balancing skills by standing on a half sphere, there was the flat part to stand on while the curved side was on the ground which wobbled about and required controlling. I made sure I was near something to hold on to if and when I lost my balance. After that I tried to stand on a medicine ball which I managed fairly successfully. My main workout was concentrated on arms, chest and abs. It was another long session, 80 minutes this time. On the way back to the flat the weather had improved, the clouds had cleared, the sun was out and it was a lot warmer.
It was mid-day when I got back with Moira there to open the gate. I got the radio going through the computer for our favourite music programmes that are on Radio 2 on a Sunday. After lunch we sat outside and listened to the radio while reading. I managed to complete the 'Telegraph' for yesterday and also today's, another prize one, and submitted them both.
We came in at 5 pm when it began to get cold and I continued reading my book while listening to the Paul O'Grady music programme on the radio. I finished my book and I enjoyed it, a good surprise ending. Later once dinner was over we had 'Countryfile' on TV and that was followed by 'Call the Midwife'. After that we read for a while before getting to bed.
