Blastoise used bubblebeam!

I haven't written a blog since last week!

Here's what you've missed:

• Today we played Pokémon. 
• Today we went to Liverpool, looked at sculptures in the Tate, bought Pokémon Heart Gold and then went home and played Pokémon.
• Today we walked around Haigh Hall and then went home and played Pokémon.  
• Today we played Pokémon and watched Heroes, QI, The Bubble and South Park. Me and Elizabeth have been together for six months tonight!
• Today we played Pokémon and watched FlashForward. 
• Today we played Pokémon.
• Today we played Pokémon and then Liz went home.   
• Today I played Pokémon. 

Scatter "we watched Flight of the Concords" around a bit and you're all caught up with what I've been up to over the last week. 

There was some worry as to whether or not I'd be able to go and see Liz next week as was the plan because my journey was very much reliant on trains and there was talk of a strike.  It seemed like I'd have to stay home and just see her back at uni a few days later.  The strike is off though so it's all fine and dandy. 

Today I went for a walk with my dad.  We ended up in the pub (unsurprisingly) but it was OK because I was hungry and I like the baguettes.  We caught a bus back because the old man was tired.  My shoes are muddy.  The walk was great; it had it all - hills, roads, footpaths, mud, wind, rain, sun, warm, cold, blue, green, orange, talking, silence, and so on.  I'm going to try and persuade both my parents to get some similar exercise tomorrow. 
When I got in after the walk I asked my mum about the exercise she claims to do and she proceeded to demonstrate.  She put on an ancient exercise video and completed the "Yellow block".  It's the kind of thing we did at rowing to cool down and stretch off after circuits.  Suffice it to say she won't lose any weight if she does the Yellow block three times a week.
