Motivation to work out can be elusive and I've been feeling that recently, but I banked one tonight. Remember, you're always better when you've banked a workout than not, and you'll always have ups and downs with fitness. Having a slump is totally normal. But you've got this. πͺ
Leaning into the sparkly side of glam rock for tonight's @FTCharitableF#FTGBall2024 . Looking forward to seeing some great people and supporting a fabulous cause. π€
On the road for the next couple of days where amongst other things I'll be meeting with some fab bookish lawyers in Brum today before going full sassy mode for @backuptrust Front Row Fashion in London tomorrow and then a little bit of Glam Rock for @FTCharitableF on Thursday π€
Listening to the PP @laurenlaverne and its brilliant as ever but I wish I had a time machine so I could hop back and suggest Jimmy Nail's Ain't No Doubt. I doubt anyone else would and it was only when I started humming my friend's friend's version that I realised its relevance!
And we are OFF! Happy to be heading down to London for @Frenkel_Topping 's Deputy Day. Ahead of us, a fantastic pre-conference dinner at the stunning British Library tonight, followed by insights from an exciting panel lineup tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing lots of you there!
After a bit of time out due to (I kid you not) a ball of foot injury, its back. And reader, words I didn't think I'd utter when I was younger...I missed running.
Monton coffee run: bank holiday edition. Now served with iced coffee.
What an incredible driver I had on the tube this morning @TfL . District line, disembarking at Temple at 8.30 on the button, headed to Ealing Broadway. Our driver was a beautiful ray of positivity and gave me and everyone on the tube something to smile about π«Ά
The FTG Ball is back and we're ready to Rock!

@FTCharitableF
Black ties - we go again π
Looking forward to seeing some fabulous people at tonight's @spinalinjuries#Cornflowerball supporting a brilliant cause. ππ₯π₯³
Once again, the 67/100 not really bearing resemblance to the timetable. I've been at Bridge Street for 10 mins and no sign of anything, but apparently the 67 should have been here. Fix this or change the timetable? π€·ββοΈ
En route to Birmingham to see the wonderful @acspiclinneg team and deep dive into some training my brilliant @Frenkel_Topping colleagues will be delivering. Thanks to @No5Chambers for hosting us all!
A warmer than I assumed, decently paced 5k into Monton, which led to picking up a bottle of gruner vertliner and bumping into the delightful @miss_merv21 . My feet must have known she'd be coming down the high street just after I'd be done. π
A weekend in PE - a long walk yesterday versus mediatative pilates today. Both stretching the muscles in different ways (not pictured was my weekend in Dishoom takeaway, stretching a very different muscle... π€€)
