2017 PART SIX 04/02 -- 10/02

This weekend began with another visit to Hanworth Crematorium as it would have been my Dads birthday on Tuesday. Was not sure how I was going to feel but as always when I get there it's very nice and peaceful and I can spend some time there in reflection and "talk" to everyone, had a bit of a quiet moment with Mum, Dad, and Step Mum Christine who are all scattered there. The sun came out as I was ready to leave and I stopped only to pay my respects to the funeral cortége that arrived drawn by a pair of beautiful white horses accompanied by a white glass carriage. So sad, but also lovely too. 

The weekend also sees the start of the 2017 Six Nations and already a cracking first game with Scotland beating Ireland 27-22 which opens up things for the other teams, and then a scrappy win for England against the French 19-16. While a win is welcome and keeps the unbeaten run going the side are going to have to improve a lot in order to keep that run going when they face Wales next Saturday at Cardiff. 


Monthly goals and updates - February
As per last year we will take regular measurements of my stats and see that we are making inroads to our goals for this year too. Managed to drop a few of the pounds that I put on over Christmas, so almost getting back on track with a month gone, once Spring arrives will feel better and able to crack on with some swimming and more exercise during 2017.
