I’ve got another couple of weeks out here in the sunshine – so hopefully Spring will have sprung when we get back (and the “proper spring” not the “fools spring” we usually get for a few weeks before “second winter” sets in). The whole idea of coming out here was to dodge the worst of the winter (which arrives later and later in the UK these days). I was so smug when, three days after landing, I saw the weather reports of thick snow “back home”.

I’m going to have to dig my bike out and get back to swimming when we get home – sitting in the sun, guzzling super-strength coffee and gobbling pistachio-creme-filled croissants is a lovely way to pass the time, but it’s going to get me in trouble!

Absolutely shocking news about @dignity. Hope you get better soon, fella.
Coming from a family with a history of heart problems, I recently decided I had to “up my game” and start taking a bit more care (as, I guess, quite a few of us start thinking about, as we get older). I reckon we all have to do a certain amount of exercise in our lifetimes, eat a certain amount of fruit and vegetables and can only eat a certain amount of junk.
It’s just a matter of whether you spread it out, sensibly over your four-score-years-and-some, or – as I’ve done until now – wait until a real health scare to make you realise that swapping doughnuts for broccoli and moving around a bit isn’t *that much* of an imposition after all!

We all look forward to seeing @dignity back in front of the cameras soon, with his bowl of carrot sticks, talking us through that week’s “yoga for Kill Team”.
