Sunday and the usual early morning drink and a chat to plan the day, then its breakfast and then face time with the youngest daughter. She was in good form and a delight to chat to. I get a phone call from Coventry Blaze telling me the ice hockey shirt I ordered has come back with the wrong spelling of my name on it. The guy is very apologetic adn promises to get the corrected one to me as soon as possible. Yep its ice hockey season.Time to clear the decks and to put my washing away and get organised for the coming working week. We go to our local garden centre and buy vegetables. While there we visit the butchers to get bacon and while there we lay in a turkey breast for the freeze as an insurance against a tricky Christmas. It cost us £27 but there was a second label on £45! We have joined the butchers Christmas club in the hope that we will have some cushion against possible Christmas shortages and price hikes. On return to home I prepare a one pot meal and pop it in the oven on a low heat before we get ready to go to the gym.

The gym is tough as I do not usually train on a Sunday. I row for 15 minutes and cross train for 35 minutes, burning off 535 calories. I take a long shower and relax in the lounge while waiting for my partner. We drive home and settle down to watch Strictly while eating the one pot. As the dance programme melds into the world of nature and breeding I begin the blog. I shall watch the football highlights tonight as the Mighty Brentford have managed to sneak a late win against a top flight team. Then it will be bed for me. I am tired and when tired I turn to chocolate.
