Fitness, food and artefacts

Had a bit of fun last weekend - headed over to Streatham to hang out with some folks from Claire's church - a great bunch!
Started on Saturday morning, with a good hour of squash. I haven't played for about 5 years, so my legs, bum and right arm have been telling me all about it ever since!
After that we headed to David's place (a fellow Peru planner), for a pancake brunch. It was the best variety of pancake toppings I've ever seen!
Some of us then travelled into London to check out the British museum to see what we could find out about the Incas. When we got there, we found they only had displays as far south as the Aztecs (Mexico), and there wasn't anything about Peru, but it was still really fascinating. They have this display at the moment of all the tablets/pills that an average man and an average woman take in their lifetime all laid out next to each other - literally thousands, and women take more than men!

So it was a fittening, fattening and educational day all rolled into one!

Some Peru planning in the evening, then a bit of time wathcing the Lunar eclipse before dropping in on a party of some other friend's finished off the day quite nicely. The next day was church - I really wish I lived less than an hour from Balham, the teaching and fellowship there is fantastic. We went to lunch afterwards with a family from church beofre I headed home to get myself ready for another week of hard work!

Monday morning started with a house visit to put to sleep an elderly dog. It is by far the worst part of the job. The lady was so grateful that she brought in an orchid for myself and one for the nurse who came on the visit. It is lovely to know we are appreciated, though it is usually only when an animal dies that we get such thanks!!

I found out today that I am able to stay here in Bromley till the end of April at least, which is great - I have a home for another month!
