Day 116 dog walk in Eglinton Country Park & birthday drinks and cake 🎂

We were late in bed last night and I’ve been reading Lincoln Hall’s book “Dead Lucky, Life after death on Mount Everest” (bit of light reading for my fragile mind?!??? I just went to get the book as I couldn’t remember what it was called…. just said out loud yip not gonna find it in the bathroom 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️😬😆)

I’m at the bit where he’s just died….. I’ve read it before and it’s a remarkable story of endurance and recovery. The horror of what he went through is something I will never experience but tried to sleep last night wondering how it felt to be alone up on Everest, the highest person in the world for a whole night… alone…. by yourself. I didn’t get the best of sleep….. 😳

Last night I said I was not gonna be one of those people that posted their food. Ok I lied… I had no idea what Craig would churn out for breakfast this morning. Wow!

It’s fried bread with a veggie and cheesey omelette inside it. Needs a name! Was amazing.
All packed into the Jeep ready to go to Eglinton Country Park
Like butter wouldn’t melt 🙄
COVID-19 rules for the park

Now where’s the frisbee??? The other two are off!
What’s that coming over the hill??!
