How’s your Monday been? Mine has been great 🙂

Did you have a fun weekend? We had some brilliant family time on Saturday, with the annual Mass my dad organises, followed by a family party. We were very fortunate with the weather: we were able to sit outside for a while, and the boys had great fun on the bouncy castle, and playing with the outdoor toys.

On Sunday we had a diverted route home, which took us on two ferries. Unfortunately there had been road closures, one of which was as a result of a fatality. It took us much longer than usual to make our way home, but we made the most of it, by enjoying the sunshine, the scenery and even the hospitality at Portavadie, where we stopped off for a coffee (for @TheWelshWookie) and a glass of vino (for me) on our way to the second ferry. Diversions are just part of the experience of living in Argyll, particularly at this time of year when the roads are busy.  

 Tonight, we did a four miler, so our last full week’s training for the Great North Run is on track. However, I have a trip away at the end of the week so I’ll be packing my trainers and trying to squeeze in a little run at some point.  

 I saw this last week, and thought it would be perfect for boosting motivation, so here it is:  

 Have a fabulous week!
