Fading Light

One of my old student hangouts in Nottingham, The Palais, re-opens this week. It has now been taken over by the DHP Family, the owners of Rock City. They say they will be bringing back student nights, alongside ex-student nights and in due course they plan to put on live music. Could be interesting.

On Saturday at Alvaston Parkrun my time of 25:57 is my fastest for two years. Derby’s start decent to the season continues with a win 1-0 over Cardiff, their third win from five games. L does a late gym and then we do a late Plough although I may have twisted her arm on both. I work my way through Supreme, Bullion and Legend with each one running out after I’d had a pint of it.

We do a joint gym on Sunday then we’re both we’re back at work on Monday and for L it’s the first time in the office for seven whole weeks but she’s back home by 11am as her boss seemingly forgets he supposed to be back in at all. I, of course, have no office to go into. I am back on the track in the evening and at the Exeter afterwards.

Tuesday sees L make another attempt to link up with her boss and isn’t happy about it as he turns up this time. Another return on Tuesday is dog training.

On Wednesday we haul ourselves out of bed early and do a 4k run with the Lad. Thursday has L in Derby and then at yoga while with the evening light now fading we bring tennis forward to 5pm to get a final game of the season in.
