Smash cake

Hello Folks - Busy time here. I have been in Holland seeing people I used to live with and know a few years ago - and had a damn good time.. I had forgotten what I missed and didn't miss about the place - which is always good...

It was very cold though. And travelling on EasyJet had little room for woolies! Thank God for the powers of mulled winem cake, beer and coffee (although not all at the same time)..

Stayed with Erik (which whom I appeared on a Nick Cave single cover) and Gerbri who I had many adventures with in Australia, and met up with Marjon and Mary too...

It was great to see Utrecht again as well as Amsterdam... I got home on the Thursday, went to a wedding on a Friday, family meal on Saturday and on Sunday was back up in Widnes to help with the Broadway to The Brindley workshops...bracing -11.5c on the M6..

This week I had circuits on Monday, Gervase Phinn on Tuesday and the HEARTS panto on Wendesay (oh yes I did) and have one night in before Interpol tomorrow....

Living life to the full one could say! xx

Amsterdamning and Liiverpool

Hello Bloggettes, Went for my check up at Liverpool and lung capacity increased to 25 per cent - stragnely it is always a couple of percentage lower in Liverpool than Newcastle - but it was even up here on last time... Back of the net...

They did fail to get any blood out of me for my M.O.T though... Their loss!

Ihad a trainee nurse following me around, which I didn't mind, because she was hot. Its hard to make small talk when you are being prodded, poked, blowing into machines and being pricked by needles though..

The new doctor assumed I couldn't do any kind of sport with my low capacity. It just goes to show what application can do..

A former fellow athlete at the Transplant Games has twice my lung capacity (almost) and is on oxygen 10 hours a day.....

It shows daily swims, gyms or table tennis sessions work for me....

On a lighter note - I booked a flight to Amsterdam today! Whoop whoop xx
