Tuscany

April ended with a trot in Regent's Park - the Run Through 10k. Daughter No.2 buzzed round in 52 minutes without extending herself; I followed on in 1 hour 6 minutes, which is not bad for an old boy, and unlike with last year's London Landmarks Half Marathon, I didn't finish with barely 10cc of fuel in the tank (for the uninitiated, it's all about powering over the last 100 metres and making people think that this is how you have run all the way round).

I am afflicted by deformation professionnelle (and before I go further I must say that there would be an acute on the first 'e' if I could find some way of doing it with this programme). The condition is not physiological, as might appear from the name. It translates roughly as occupational hazard. It is, for someone who teaches legal writing and drafting, the tendency to want to correct/sub-edit other's text where there is a mistake.
