A peaceful Saturday, with no clock watching or appointments. Andrew had a long lie in this morning. This afternoon, we went for a bimble around, as we are still finding our way around the area. The sky was beautiful in a wintry way, very low and grey with red bits, and the temperature has been falling this afternoon. Apparently the UK is due for heavy snow from tomorrow night onwards. Tomorrow Andrew is running in the Welsh cross country championships just down the road at the Royal Welsh Showground. This will be the first time he has run wearing his new club vest and he is nervous. I'm hoping he won't have to run in a blizzard. This evening, he will be eating plenty of carbs to stoke up, and he usually foregoes alcohol the night before the race. More wine for me then.

Was looking at Twitter earlier and LA posted about a fabulous photography website. I went there to have a look and it is wonderful, with lots of pics of LA in training and another set of amazing pics of triathletes. Check out www.elizabethkreutz.com - on the index go to Lance's Comeback and take a look at the pictures. Amazing.

We called in the local Co-op on the way home - the nearest thing we have to a supermarket. Got some free range chicken for this evening and was having a look at the pork labelling, following the programme earlier in the week. Fair play, the fresh pork was very well labelled and they even had a good offer on outdoor reared British sausages which was good news. Some of the processed hams and so on were less transparent. There is obviously a way to go on this issue. Now off to cosy up with a gin and the paper.
