the start of the elite women’s race

and a mexican!

Captain Jack Sparrow discovers he owes a blood debt to the legendary Davey Jones, Captain of the ghostly Flying Dutchman. With time running out, Jack must find a way out of his debt or else be doomed to eternal damnation and servitude in the afterlife. Making matters worse, Sparrow’s problems manage to interefere with the wedding plans of a certain Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann, who are forced to join Jack on yet another one of his misadventures.

So the waits over and POTC3 has finally been released, lots happened in the film and I think will have to see it again to catch the bits I missed the first time ( Claire’s already sent me a txt asking if I’ll watch it again with her next week ) and it’s not exactly hard work watching Johnny Depp

Can’t help feeling it was a bit of an anti climax though – not because the film isn’t good, more because it’s now over and all 3 have been watched…without spoiling the ending, there is scope for another, but I get the feeling if that did happen, it wouldn’t be up to the same standard….

Maybe this is why I didn’t get the job….

A man in a hot air balloon realised he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman tending to the flowers in her garden. He descended a bit more and shouted, ‘Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend that I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.’

The woman below replied, ‘You’re in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You’re between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude.’

‘You must be an Accountant,’ said the balloonist.

‘I am,’ replied the woman, ‘How did you know?’

‘Well,’ answered the balloonist, ‘everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is , I’m still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help at all. If anything, you have delayed my journey.’

The woman below responded, ‘You must be in Management.’

‘I am,’ replied the balloonist, ‘but how did you know?’

‘Well,’ said the woman, ‘you don’t know where you are, or where you’re going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise of which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but somehow it’s now become my
fault!’

The Friday night before the Manchester 10k, a not so sober Rupert declared that I must be really slow to do 10k in 90 minutes and that he could do it in 40.

Following my completion of the run, he made several jokes about how tired I was and how if he had done it, he woulda done this better and this and this and this…you get the picture. My response was along the lines of I have a medal to prove I did it, you take the car to the shops…

So tonight I got my revenge. I’d been talking to Kath about entering a 10k in London, but didn’t have any more details, so looking on the great run site told him the next run was in July.

He went quite pale and in a high pitched squeaky voice said ‘this year?’

So in the spirit of compromise, we agreed to do the Heaton Park 10k in September, so to mimic the words of a well known advert:

trainers £50
running top £30
entrance fee £17.50
seeing Rupert run with stella in 1 hand and fag in the other………….PRICELESS

Better time than the last time I ran so I’m happy After weeks of ringing the help line and asking where my pack is, today I found out that they’d sent it to the wrong address grrr Ho hum amusement for the morning was finding out I’d been placed in the first wave, which was meant to be for fast runners lol so I downgraded myself to white wave to join kath, who finished in a few seconds over an hour.

Am now thoroughly exhausted so going for a lie down…

Thanks and big hugs to Ste and Tess for making chocolate cake and saving me a piece – it was gorgeous! Same again next week?
