💪🏼 So… a solid fifteen days of exercising and filling my Apple Fitness rings daily. I’ve lost a little weight, sleep much better and I’m finally catching up on all those TV shows I seemed to have missed recently. All thanks to the elliptical trainer in my building’s gym.
The northern side of the Greenwich foot tunnel, at the bottom of the Isle of Dogs, which we walked through on Sunday. I always enjoy the stroll down to Greenwich and feel lucky to live so close.

Can’t get too comfortable on the sofa, watching NHK. It’s time to head downstairs to the gym and move this flabby body about a bit. Slowly but surely, all this exercise is paying off…
📺 Spending this evening mainlining Season 4 of ‘Only Murders in the Building’. It’s terrific stuff.
📸 Enjoyed a lovely riverside walk down to Greenwich after lunch. Bitterly cold, but nice to get some fresh air.
📸 Morning coffee and morning sunshine.
📸 Good morning. The combination of fog, mist and sunshine is doing strange things to London’s skyline.
📸 It looks beautiful out there. Time to go for a run.
🎥 A small thing for many, but a big thing for me: my little YouTube channel now has 1,000 followers. I hit the number before I went to be last night and was really thrilled. I’d aimed to hit 1,000 by the end of 2024, so I’m only a few days late. Onwards, to YouTube fame!!
📸 Good morning from London!
Due to a ferocious lack of sleep last night, today is going to be… a challenge. ☕️
My small steps to move away from big (fash) tech.
💪🏼 Fit and focussed: one week in
A short summary of my efforts to improve my wellbeing since January 1st.
☕️ Coffee drinkers reap health boost – but only if they do it in the morning
People who get their coffee hit in the morning reap benefits that are not seen in those who have shots later in the day, according to the first major study into the health benefits of the drink at different times.
🎉
And a very happy “English fascists are now tearing lumps out of each other Day” to all who celebrate. I can’t tell you how pleased I am to see them turn on each other, like rats in a sack.
📸 Yet another London sunset. I make no apologies - I’ll never get sick of this view.
🥶 Another day when it was just too nasty to exercise outside. So I popped down to the gym and watched ‘Squid Game’ season 2 on my iPad while on the elliptical machine. It made the time pass so quickly.
And definitely got my heart rate up!
💪🏼 Proof of gym
After heading out for a run yesterday and the day before, today’s cold weather has stopped me in my tracks. So instead, I’m going to head to our building’s gym in the basement and work out on the elliptical trainer. It’s still exercise, but will be warmer. Plus I can watch some Netflix on my iPad.
✈️ My next trip to Japan just got one hell of an upgrade!
