Ouch and Double Ouch - More Websites and Ram

Ouch. This morning I am hurting. Second session with the new social Hethersett running club last night and it was a tough one. Hence last night I could hardly walk and this morning I have tight calfs (or should that be calves), tight hamstrings and too many other tight bits and pieces to mention. But I tell myself that I am getting fitter and I have lost four pounds in the last couple of weeks. So the regime will continue. I feel a right fraud when you hear about people running 100 marathons in 100 days. How the hell do they do that?

Will have to miss next week's session as we are on holiday in Northern Ireland chasing the rain. It's currently raining here in Norfolk as I type this. In Northern Ireland there is bright sunshine at the moment. Tomorrow Ireland will have bright sunshine and for most of Sunday. On Sunday we will be travelling west as a belt of rain sweeps west and as we reach Ireland it should just about get there at the same time. Such is life.

This morning I have come and try sports days for the village to sort out and I also want to revisit Paul McCartney's album Ram which was the first thing he recorded after leaving the Beatles and which has just been re-released in an enhanced package. Don't know what you think about all this re-packaging lark. I find it very confusing to have different versions of the same album with enhancements and extra demos and tracks. I tend to still like just listening to the original album. I like McCartney's stuff that he was putting out post Beatles. It has a kind of quirky feel to it.

I spoke a few days ago about my obsession with web sites. My village web site at www.hethersett.org.uk has become so big that it needs sorting out. I'm not going to get rid of anything as everything on it acts as a village archive. So I have found Weebly which gives free web sites and very easy they are to put together. All those years of learning html coding etc gone by the board. So I am launching the Hethersett 2 site at http://hethersett2.weebly.com so that I can capture and categorise some of the information into sections. The idea is that it will bring all the stories on a particular subject together in one file. So if you want to read about the past two years at one of the local schools you can without having to search through archive material.

Problem is I haven't stopped there. I have also launched new sites for our social running club, the sports association and sport in Hethersett. Now you can call me an anorak. So please excuse me if I get on with that work. See you tomorrow.
