Good morning all. Had a great but exhausting day yesterday. Headed up to Leyland for a geocaching meet with likeminded individuals in a pub called the Ley Inn. Great bunch of guys and I was able to restrict myself to just a flavoured water. This was partly because the only diet soda they had was diet pepsi and I havent drunk that for 2 years. Why dont pubs get other diet sodas in?
Anyway off on a tangent.
After the meet we went for a pretty good walk in Cuerden Park (hope I have spelt that right) to find some geocaches before heading back home to the Wirral. Walked a good couple of miles over all sorts of terrain to the point that my chest was aching from breathing so heavy at one point.
But it was all enjoyable. Headed back to the car and it as getting a bit late on and none of us had eaten since breakfast so I fired up the satnav for a 2 for 1 pub. Found one close by and we headed off there. I had half roast chicken (removed all the skin) with veg and jacket potato (asked for this instead of the advertised mash). Had a glass of water with it as again the only diet soda on offer was diet pepsi. Not impressed with these pubs.
The kids wanted dessert after so I had a look at what there was and on the kids menu they did fruit. Cool, fruit and a coffee. Erm....no. They didnt have any fruit. So I had coffee while the wife and kids shared the biggest chocolate muffin, ice cream, wafer, flake, biscuit concoction you have ever seen in your life. Did feel a little left out as I was really looking froward to the banana. Just supped my coffee and kept my mouth shut.
Got home and had a Muller Light and 2 chunks of my Bournville block from the fridge before heading off to bed.
All in all it was a good day and with the geocaching I did the day before it means I have done a minimum 30 mins exercise every day this week which I am happy with. Just hoping it will be reflected on the scales on Tuesday.
Anyway, enough from me. Its half term and I have to figure out what to make the kids do.........I mean what to do with the kids
Have a great day everyone.
