That was last week that was

A quiet week really. Still not at work, don’t seem any closer to returning. A week for recharging batteries once again. Trouble is that I think I need completely new batteries!
Anyway, a good week for photographs . . supplied several to parkrun in Bromley for use in some publicity and heard only nice things from the design agency concerned.
Wednesday I made it to running club, for the committee meeting, and although there’s one issue which caused me to glaze over, by and large it was a good evening.
Friday I went up to Wendover Woods to greet some of the Old Men of Tring, and have coffee and toasted bacon and tomato sandwiches. Very nice. Got a few good photos too, of some trees mostly – hardly surprising given where I was at the time!
Saturday found me back in Milton Keynes for parkrun number 8, and very good it was too. Got some great photos, the cheekiest of which is here
And I took some video footage of the start and of the runners passing by at approximately 4½k. Haven’t finished the *direction* yet but I’m working on it!
The parkrun in MK is picking up very nicely, with a good strong group of regular runners, a steady stream of newcomers, and ever more people volunteering. And ever so gradually, more people stopping back for coffee afterwards!!
Then on Sunday it was back to Wendover Woods, to support at the MT5 race which had been cancelled in each of the last 2 Januarys because of the weather, and although it wasn’t rearranged in 2009 it was this time around. Again, I’ve posted a few good photos in Facebook, but one I especially like is this one
And now I’m in Bristol for a few days, catching up with some old and dear friends, and missing my daughter by 24 hours because I messed up the arrangements. So look out Bristol because I’ll be back again soon!!
