Hi all


I'm running the London marathon for the first time next year. I'm doing the 24 week beginners running programme from the Virgin website which involves training 6 out of 7 days a week (5 shortish week runs and a longer Sunday run). At the moment I'm only running about 2 or 3 miles a day. I normally go in the evening when my other half gets home, but sometimes do daytime runs with my son in the buggy when I know I won't be able to get out in the evening.


I just wondered if any other mums are doing anything similar and fancied joining forces? Please PM me if you'd be interested in this - it would be nice to have company now that it's so dark in the evenings, and for motivation of course!


Whilst I'm writing, I will also be shameless and plug my sponsorship page: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/HollieStroud I'm raising money for Kids Company (they work therapeutically with vulnerable inner-city children and young people, and are founded by the wonderful Camila Batmanghelidjh). Any donations will be very greatly appreciated.


Thanks

Hollie

    • Farmers aren't being gifted anything; Their heirs are being gifted millions of pound worth of income generating assets by chance of birth. An estate that they have done nothing to earn. Most farms worth under £3m will still end up being passed on tax free. Those that do have to a pay inheritance tax will do so at just 20% on that part which is over the threshold (rather than the standard 40%), and they'll have 10 years to do so (usually it is payable immediately). So it is still preferential terms for those being gifted a multimillion pound estate So to repeat my previous question... Why do you think people coming into a massive, unearned windfall shouldn't pay any tax, but a nurse who works hard for everything they earn, should pay tax?
    • We recently used Jan at Silver Fern for some fencing and driveway works, he also built a side return shed which is now a water tight space for storage.    Would certainly recommend speaking to Jan for gardening or landscaping needs. http://www.silverfernlondon.co.uk [email protected]        
    • And the latest shocker, Inflation this morning was 2.3% up from 1.7& the previous month, a 0.6% increase in a month, that is dreadful. So Robber Reeves plan is already working (NOT). Inflation has begun to increase and will continue to do so, I predict the next set of unemployment figures will show a rise. Neither of these things can be blamed on the last Govt, it's down to the inept budget and impact it is having already.
    • Andrews and Arnold are brilliant https://www.aa.net.uk/. If there's any problems someone picks up the phone on the 2nd or 3rd ring and several times they have rung me immediately after I sent an e-mail. As they are primarily B2B, their support is excellent and there are a lot fewer miscommunications with OpenReach. Go to their website and enter your postcode which will show you exactly what type of broadband is available in your area.
