Fabulous sunny day (needed sunglasses) and 'warm' today! Good drivng, was really put thorugh my paces - and so was pony. loooks like he is not used to backing up, objected big time, and also to putting 'a' shoulder in. Interesting. Had to do tight turns - learn the 'hows' of in case ever needed, and also back to 'beautful' curves and keeping straight as a die between the parallel poles. Hmmmmmm Did too many skurry turns wehn I was supposed to be doing elegeant! Was stil given a good mark but again, think they were being kind <VBG>

Walaked out this afternoon, but feet really playing up then knee decided to chie in. Bit painful, but must have walked n total about a mile. nee and feet not good this evening - right painful.

Yesterday, AWed, was physio day. My PT is pleased with my progress - so am I. Do notice a difference. He was very adament about warming up muscles first before doing stretches, he said that is a 'ust' for every spondy as could do oneself an injury.

Noticed for first time ever that I slightly carry my neck to the right. When one 'sees' the difference in the two sides of the neck/head carriage, it is very obvious. PT says due to enthesis and kyphosis etc on R. section of back. He doubts it will come right, but says to 'walk' tall and to look *straight ahead and to try to be concious of head carriage. (Told hm I'd try walking with book on head - he then said that years ago that 'exercise' was a *Must, upto 1 kilo (2.2lbs!) phew. OK, that would be my Larousse... :))

Cleaned out chucks - like a swimming mud bath out there. Poor chucks.

OK. That was me for two days. Will really try hard to walk out every day now - well, at least when it is not pouring with rain!

(Glad y'all like the piccies Dow was so kind in posting for me.)
