Well. Welcome to this thread.
You may be surprised why it is here or happy it is here. Then again: ‘You have got to be joking! Do you know what is wrong with me?’ may be your response.
This all began on the Extreme Fatigue thread. On there several people wanted and needed inspiration/incentive to get out and walk. Many people see the benefits of it in their life and to help on this; mad journey, train ride, rollercoaster ride and other positively rude words journey called Breast Cancer.
It is not a thread created to make anyone feel less than they do at present. It is not a thread that will set people against one another. Being competitive with yourself or a simple challenge to yourself is the point, but not a race against others is a key premis.
The idea is that you can do any of these or none:
Well here goes.
Either it will grow and blossom, with lots of lovely people benefiting. Or I will have egg all over my face – not for the first time in my chequered life and career.
Leolady – may be adding in the odd gallop to my walks.
PS if you don't like us don't be cruel.
Tally ho! Old bean. Might need to be gentle with me tomorrow I am now shorn!
I would just like to say well done for battling through the poop to celebrate Xmas Eve in a pub. True British determination and Dinkirk spirit too boot.

Life is like a boxing match, defeat is declared not when you fall ..... But when you refuse to stand up again ....... So, I get knocked down but I get up again. x
I have been known to gallop Miranda style. Actually to my 3rd op In fact in honour of those going through this poop
And on Saturday in Beaconsfield with a friend's 15yr old daughter who kindly galloped with this old lady.
No horses are harmed in the making of our fun

Violetsniff no it's just the way Leolady56 walks ;-). I sometimes walk some way behind when there's lots of people about.
Hi Cannon,
Yes, 3 each still in tight bud of daffodils, hyacinths and grape hyacinths. I hope they will enjoy that table, it's our 'garden room' a sort of indoor/outdoor space!
