How was your week? Good? Bad? Indifferent?

I'll try and make this a weekly feature.

Overall pretty good, but inexplicably exhausting - but then, I’m getting older and everything is inexplicably exhausting half the time.

Yes, I've been working on my endurance but sometimes I'm just wiped out and end up waking up in my chair at ungodly hours in the morning sure I just sat down for a moment. Not helped by coming off a fortnight long cough and cold which wiped me out and led to my brother giving me a talking to about not dying (which I am actively working on, I've been successful so far).

Went to a party last night with a lot of old friends, many going back to school days, and a lot of the chat was how knackered everyone's bodies were - especially the runners and those who've had cancer treatments.

There is a haze of green on the branches now, and the blue-tits are definitely building in the nestbox.

I noticed this week how magnificent the magnolias were looking and the cherry trees are close to going into full bloom.
