Er…no.
A little while ago I mentioned that I’d bought a new toy – something to improve my lung capacity. I kept at it for a few days, but then it got put in the shipping and I didn’t see it for another 6 weeks. The shipping has now all arrived, but I’ve yet to find the motivation to start it up again. I thought this might happen, and it’s why I usually question Katie when she gets some new fangled idea or product. It’s unusual, but it seems at the moment I’ve fallen on my own spike.
However…
Since I’ve been out here, I’ve been playing more squash, badminton, tennis, and starting from tonight, futsal (a few minor differences to UK 5-a-side footy), and all in the heat of Malaysia. I even tried going for a run one morning with Andy, but that ended quite suddenly for me and convinced me I’m not cut out for long(er) distances. The squash courts are in the condo and are free, so I can go smack a ball around there whenever I want, along with some games against the guys on a Monday. Badminton is a gentler affair with mostly beginner ladies, but it helps me to keep my touch going and can practise plenty of drop shots. The futsal though is great, and I really enjoyed, even made missing our weekly jaunt down to Spring Garden Corner (local Chinese restaurant whose name I always mix up) worth missing. I was surprised I could just about keep going for the best part of a couple of hours, although I did get some painful cramp in both legs towards the end. Water and salt should sort that.

erm, it’s Spring Corner, not Spring Garden?!
Anyways. Glad to know you realise you’re not *always* right!
Am flagging a bit now – will be glad to get home again!
