Festively plump

'Tis not yet the season
14.11.2014

Day 214
Last night's carousing and this morning's promise of a dousing by the incessant rain precluded the bike as a commuting option. In any case, I ended up cycling from Tooting early this morning (2am) with a bellyful of Prosecco and rich food. No fit state.

On this day, 25 years ago, John Alexander Haydon Jones was born. This evening various members of his family and friendship to raise a glass and eat more rich food (in his rather bloated mama's case), plus cake, in his honour.  They will also be wetting the foetus's head, or at least congratulating him on the baby due on April 5.
So, this is not a training day. This is a second eating/drinking/sleep depriving celebration day. There are more to come. No sleep until Sunday, this is the first of many training haituses (haiti?) what with Christmas on the horizon. I feel fat already.
