Unheralded Success

Despite not announcing and foreshadowing it on yesterday's blog, nevertheless Chrissi and I managed to go swimming this evening. We'd half planned this yesterday but it still took a fair bit of effort to turn this into an actual trip! As opposed to doing this when we got home, with the 6-8pm session at the leisure centre dedicated to an 'all welcome' concept, we opted for the 8-10pm 'lane swimming' instead which was obviously a little more in line with our intentions.

So we ate, relaxed and despite being comfortable and at home we managed to head out to the leisure centre, get a good 30-40 minute swim under our belt and return. I feel quite tired and should definitely sleep well tonight! Or so I hope ...

The annoying thing with theme blogs like yesterday is that even once written, I still mull the theme over in my head and think of items that I missed. In this case, the obvious omission that sprung to my mind not long ago was the not-at-all obscure Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl. Not at all obvious!

Don't forget Black Velvet...a fantastic song I was reminded of on the radio this morning.

Ah, but I had an entry for black. There were many contenders there as it's quite a commonly used colour. Brown I did not have however.
