L'arbe de citron
I have a lemon tree. And it has a gi-nourmous lemon on it plus two little green fruits yet to mature. This is very exciting indeed. Our balcony is now much more like a proper little garden and is quite cosy.
Today, I walked up a giant hill. I've been avoiding walking up it since we got here, but today, with the bit between my teeth, as they say, I walked up it. And as a result was only crippled with an anvil-style-pressure-on-my-chest-preventing-air-from-filling-my-battered-lungs weight (I believe that is the medical term for it) for a minute max. Then we trotted off for a bit more walking - this was after we had done an hour or so of other walking too. Fat Mamas can get up hills. Bueno. Plus 50 sit ups. And the dogs smell a bit of wee.
Obviously, I am completely knackered now. However, let The Battle of the Bulge commence.
