The Three Lions roar back...barely...

Family,

And a good evening to you from across the Pond after another GREAT DAY in the Mother Country. Another AFD tonight, and (mercifully) another quiet night in.

The work day was great - another perfect combination of productivity and interaction - so no complaints there. Also, both muffin puffin and I got to work out. She rolled through 2000m in the pool while I hit up two-third's of a sprint triathlon - 25km on the bike and 5km on the treadmill. I will say that, whilst the pasta was a big help on the bike, I was EXHAUSTED by the time I started the 5K (which made it a LONG 28:30). All the same, it was a great workout, and I sure didn't feel guilty consuming some cheese tonight!

I got home about 8:45 to find perfect pumpkin already preparing salad, so I just set the table (meaning grabbed 2 folks, 2 vitamins, and 2 napkins) and tucked in to my grub! Thanks, pookles!

Also, congrats to England for beating Hungary tonight in their first match since the World Cup. It was a little tense there (and I was pretty sure Capello was gonna be CANNED if they'd lost - friendly or no) for a bit, but the Three Lions prevailed and acquitted themselves nicely. Puma - I think it only appropriate to start singing "Stevie Gerr-ard, Gerr-ard, Gerr-ard..."

Okay, that's all the news that's fit to print. Chat tomorrow!

Love,

Sam and Jenny
