Lots of lovely plans this week. Mostly we have been planning our summer holiday to Scotland. We are planning on doing a mini road trip and doing a mix of camping , Air BnB and hotels. We are also planning on taking Millie so who knows how it will go. The Husband has had the tent out, and is using it as an excuse to buy all manner of gizmos and gadgets. He came home the other day brandishing an inflatable mattress which of course then necessitated an electric pump, and now we have a multitool complete with hammer for tent peg related tasks. We have so far resisted the urge to buy Millie her own rucksack.
We have a route planned and as of today one of the hotels booked. We also have a voucher for afternoon tea in Edinburgh which will be a lovely treat. It is our anniversary while we are away so we have found a great dog friendly hotel with a rather tempting looking spa and a delicious sounding menu to celebrate in style.
I also have plans to do my first park run tomorrow, in preparation for my 5k race next weekend. I managed 2.5 miles twice this week so we will see how I fare when it comes to the terrifying business of running with other people!
Other plans include meeting up with a good friend on Sunday, and a meal out with my mum and some neighbours next weekend. There is lots to look forward to in the weeks and months ahead. Here's to a lovely summer.
Good luck with your run, you are brave setting out there with other people! X
ReplyDeletethank you Penny! x
DeleteSo nice to have plans and things to look forward to. Scotland is just so beautiful, we have been many times. My husband and I did a bit of a road trip years ago, camping and B & B's it was fab! We have always gravitated to the Trossachs area, we stayed in Callander last year...it is so lovely there.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great with your running and I am sure you will run brilliantly with all the others next weekend!
Have a great weekend xx

thank you so much, we are hoping to get in some nice walks, and perhaps kite flying and stargazing too!
DeleteI hope that your run goes well and that you have a wonderful time on your travels!!! xx
ReplyDeletethank you Amy x
Deletehope park run went well x not sure which way you'll be driving to Edinburgh, but if you're going north on the A1 then Barter Books in Alnwick is a good dog friendly place for a cuppa. x
ReplyDeleteoh thank you Tess, not sure if we will go via there this time as heading up through Dumfries, but will add it to our list! Any other recommendations gratefully received :)
DeleteCan't wait to hear how your race went! I actually think running with other people is way more fun and motivating..but I'll be interested to hear what you think!
ReplyDeletethanks Joanne, it was more motivating, and I felt really well supported! I ran with headphones though, and can't imagine running without music, might try one headphone next time, but earbuds fall out of my ears!
DeleteYour vacation sounds as if it will be divine! One of our daughters has been urging {bugging} us to take a family trip to Scotland for years now! : ) Someday we will! xx
ReplyDeletethank you Grace! We do have slightly less distance to travel than you but I hope you make it one day! x
