Swimming and stuff

I've started on a new regime of 'activity' and just completed a second trip to the swimming baths this week as part of my 'programme' for regaining my health. Swam my standard forty lengths which is one kilometre and although the pool was crowded (often is on friday's) it wasn't too bad (most of the other swimmers were female though which means the water tasted like perfume). I also cycled out to Moesgaard beach the other day and I'm going to see if I can't do that at least once a week.
The weather has been iffy today, but apart from some rain yesterday, fairly summer like all week. There is a lot of wind and clouds though. With luck, I reckon I should start to feel the benefits of this exersize within two months. I've been horribly inactive for the last year and a half, basically ever since Freja was born, so Its good to get off my backside and feel the weather on my face again.

In order to get to Moesgaard beach, I have to cycle through Moesgaard forest which is probably the most beautiful aspect of the city of Århus. It was already very green, though the full bloom of summer is yet to come, and the place was practically deserted. Only a few roaming pensioners were on the beach and the forest cycle path was empty. I think I met no more than four or five other cyclists. I'll take my camera next time and get some images.

In the mean time, I'm back on my computer and my modelling spree threatens to die out again. Its annoying but the temptations of the internet are just too many and varied. Last night I laughed myself silly until 2am watching Chris Rock video's on You Tube and this morning I've been typing here there and every where and watching this article about a restored B17. I'll post some model images as soon as I reattach my camera's 'uploading bay'.

Yesterdays skirmish game was fun, but distracted. At one point in the proceedings I had five children of various ages in my apartment and it was quite hard to concentrate. As a result I was unable to 'unwind' afterwards which is why I sat up until 2am. Our apartment is fairly large considering our income, but its small when five adults and three children are present. We'd like to live in the country side, but the much anticipated price drop has not happened and is looking ever more unlikely. The other down side to living in the country side would be the isolation. Currently we have access to the centre of Denmarks second largest city, and whilst expensive, it works well. Living in the country side might spell an end to much of what I've come to take for granted, including my weekly gaming sessions. It would all depend on how far out we were forced to move, which in turn would depend on prices. As things stand now its not going to happen in 2007, but it may be that next year we will have another Snoos to think about... (and no Mette is not pregnant, I'm just looking ahead)
