I only popped in for a minute in between the sales and shopping for tea bags

Bless you cats, here have a hug,

and all of you for being a part of something special

the mudcat

I'll give her a ring and see what she says, probably be 'bugger off Dad, I'm training or coaching'

She had a 2nd arthroscopy just before Christmas. 'Well I was in 'recovery' so I thought I might as well have the other knee done!!!'

Shes was back to 'full squats' with 10 kilos on her shoulders a couple of days ago

Thanks Hil, Christine, Kitty, Lucy, Charlie and welcome Liz happy new year to yoos all

Hi again

Well am I impressed with me finding this

Compared to the real heroines Michaela's achievements are put into perspective

here is the text from the Western Morning News



'Later that month, readers celebrated news that Westcountry teacher Ms Breeze won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games in Australia. Weightlifter Michaela, a PE teacher at Ivybridge Community College, South Devon, fought back from injury to claim the medal.

She lifted the equivalent of a 19-stone man [ does George Papavgeris come to mind] to win the title in Melbourne. Ms Breeze qualified to compete for Wales, and it was the first Welsh gold medal of the games.

Returning to school, she received a hero's welcome from both teaching colleagues and students. Now she is focused on qualifying for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.'

but the others that were mentioned are the real heroes

Still something to be really proud of though. I'll pop it in the post in the new year as long as you can pm me with your address again. It got eaten by my trojan.
