Assassin's trudge

I think even Matt is starting to realise that Assassin's Creed is a little repetitive.  It still has all of the good bits of the old game.  Getting to the point where Ezio is getting old, and the whole game is getting a little old with him.  The game seems to be heading in the direction of a final end.  Will this be the last of the ACs?  Who knows.

I do know that today was weigh in, and despite being utterly convinced that I'd lose nothing this week, I still lost 0.5kg.  I'm not displeased, but I'm not super pleased.  I guess I had to expect it to slow down at some point, and now I suspect will come the trudge of 1 - 2lb per week until my target.  Still, I've signed up for it, and it's working, so I may as well keep going!  Clothes are starting to fit that havent for some time, which is good!

Matt has been doing a large amount of what he calls "Beast mode" at the gym lately, and his arms are getting very solid.  He lost 1.5kg this week, which is excellent!!  Really proud of him!

I am in the process of cooking a chocolate marble tea loaf for pudding for dinner this evening.  We have Alex and Catherine coming over.  It smells tasty, so I hope it works out as it's the first time I've made one.  I, of course, shall have to have as little as possible.  I dont want to start another week behind after a weekend.

We (me and Liz) finally managed to cut down the remainder of Poppet's claws last night, so she can walk with ease and it doesnt cause her any fuss.  Finally sorted after a long time of being far too long for the poor animal!!  She seems much happier in herself as a result - dog nail clipping ftw!

Jim sent me his album in the post with a really amusing letter, asking me to check the vocals as usual.  I've had it on the afternoon and at first listen it sounds really accomplished!  I have the lyrics sheets to feedback to him with and a deadline.  It's like an exciting mini assignment!!  If you want to follow Jim on twitter, go to @JamesNighthawk - he has a really cool folky sound on this on, and you can link to his facebook and studio pages and have a listen - I believe that some of our duets are around somewhere so go and have a listen!   He's also a great producer if you're looking for one in the Herts/Essex area!

It has been a long week and I'm very tired - here's to a relaxed evening and rest of weekend!!

Off to clean and tidy now.
