A Wee Update – including the answer to life’s mystery :o)

 

Lemmy aka 'God' :)

This one is for Lemmy :)

Greetings Dear Readers :)

If you are a regular reader you’ll be expecting this to be an update on my current dietary regime. It isn’t :) Why? Because I’ve been extraordinarily busy with my personal training in Edinburgh, training myself and working on Physique and Performance and I quite simply don’t want to spend any more time thinking, or writing, about nutrition, working out or any other aspect of training, personal or otherwise :)

Having said that as it turns out I got a couple of paragraphs in me so here you go :) I have been eating mainly protein (chicken, beef, eggs and powder), green veg, nuts, avocado, fruit compote and lots of fast carbs of which Skittles are my current favourite.I’m still playing about with carb backloading too :)

Fast carb goodness :)

My training is going very well. I’m growing steadily, thoroughly enjoying myself  and continuing to successfully navigate my assorted tweaks ‘n’ strains :) I’ve also found a fantastic new physio, Susan Humphreys, who is doing a great job of keeping me in one piece so all looks well for the future :)

That earlier sentence should have read ‘or three’ apparently :) My sleeping is slowly but surely improving, with the emphasis on the slowly :) I’m doing much better on the resting front though and have started to take regular bathing sessions, read more and watch more TV :) My current program of choice is a follow-up to my highly passionate but all too brief affair with Downton Abbey. Any ideas?

 

The cast of Upstairs Downstairs

It’s Upstairs Downstairs :)

Bit slow so far but I’m still quite enjoying it :) I’m even doing fairly well at not getting too over faced by just how many books I simply have to read and shows I simply have to watch :) I say fairly as my Amazon Wish List has swollen to include 60 DVD’s since my discovery of the ‘History Of Warfare’ series :) I am such a geek ;) Indeed, I am even considering venturing once more into the world of model soldiers, an old flame of mine, I just can’t decide which army to collect :)

So there you go folks, a swift update :) I will type something up on my food at some point but it may not be anytime soon :) Blog requests will be honoured though so if you would like my thoughts/views/ramblings on anything in particular just ask and I will be only too happy to oblige :)

I nearly forgot the answer to life’s mystery. How could I overlook something of such import? :) I’m going to let Lemmy of Motorhead tell you this one. To say I love Motorhead is an understatement. I bought my first album ‘Overkill’ in 1980 and I still listen to it today :) Only last Friday the title track helped my push myself through the hardest set of Leg Press I’ve done in over a decade :) Amidst the relentless noise there are some bona-fide nuggets of real truth, this being the most truthful of the lot, seriously :)

“The answer to life’s mystery is simple and direct, sex and death”

OVERKILL!!!

OVERKILL!!!

Sex and Death – Motörhead (Würzel, Phil Campbell, Mikkey Dee, Lemmy) 1995

How many of you will appreciate it I don’t know but I feel confident  that there has never been a more profound end to any blog post :)       In fact I’ll go further and say I’m confident that no blog post has ever contained anything profound :)

Now do all the FB social media stuff :)
