Body Combat mix
Well it’s been a little while since I’ve written about the mixes I’ve been teaching, but tonight I did a random mix and a very special request from NL.
Alexander had asked me, since he couldn’t be there, to do Electroviolence from BC25 (track 7), so I did it for him, although I wish [...]Not so broadband
Well, my not-so-broadband that I got has been turning out not too bad, and I have found out that I’m actually just on the sneaking edges of the broadband area. This is quite promising and exciting, cuz there are SOME occasions when I switch into the 3G broadband zone. I found this out cuz my [...]
New plans for the future - GREAT NEWS!
I’ve had lots of people asking questions about the situation with Alexander and I, who is moving where, I’ve said I couldn’t live in The Netherlands just yet, then after coming home I wrote here saying that I’d do anything to be back with him right now. But just in the last week Alexander and [...]
Kira
Well, with all the changes in my life at the moment I haven’t yet figured out what to do with my horses yet. I have 2 horses, Kira, who is a beautiful Irish Sport Horse which I bred and I’m hoping I can keep and Scooter who is an unbroken 3 yo gelding. I bred [...]
Broadband
Well, I’ve got myself a little present to replace the horrible dialup I’ve been stuck on for so long. Over the last 4 years I’ve continually researched options for broadband and there was no way I could get it, and the few options (like satellite) were too outrageously expensive to consider.
But now finally an option has become available [...]Changed my mind…
A couple of weeks ago I posted an entry about whether I could move to The Netherlands to live there with Alexander. At the time I wrote that from The Netherlands and said although I liked it and maybe I could in the future, but not yet, I wasn’t ready for that yet.
But now I’m [...]Home again
So I’m finally back home again, my plane ended up being delayed this morning by an hour and a half, which is the first time that has ever happened to me. We all had to sit on the plane while they repaired it as we were notified there was an electrical fault. Nice…….just the thing [...]
Engaged
Feels like deja vu, here I am again writing from Kuala Lumpar waiting for my flight, this time on my way home to Adelaide.
It was a very emotional farewell to Alexander at the airport. I already miss him to bits, in fact, I started missing him about a week before I left. But at the [...]Facebook users
For those who are on Facebook, I have opened a new group called “Group Fitness” as support for this forum.
Since so many people use Facebook, I thought it would be a great way of keeping you all updated with what’s happening on my websites.

Share the love of Les Mills!Soreness
If only participants from my classes could have seen me this morning! The second day after pump or weights always hurts the worst, and it was hilarious when Alexander and I woke up this morning.
His alarm went off early and I lay there half asleep, in fact, so tired and groggy that I probably would have [...]Alexander’s birthday
Today (9th January) is officially Alexander’s birthday and I went out shopping so that I could do something special for him.
So I followed a map Alexander made for me to a supermarket. It wasn’t the easiest map to follow, since it didn’t have the small streets named, but I somehow figured out that the line I was meant to follow [...]BODYPUMP
Tonight I begged Alexander to do pump with me at the gym, because he wanted to do step. But I haven’t done pump once since I’ve been here and pump is easier for me to following in dutch (especially as I know the chorrey) than step is.
So he agreed and we went to pump. I [...]Biking into Apeldoorn
Since Alex is at work during the days at the moment, I did a brave thing and tried riding the bike into the city this afternoon. It was a bit scary, trying to remember the “road” and bike rules and stay on the right hand side all the time. The bike lanes are mainly pretty [...]
Driving on the right hand side of the road
One thing I’ve forgotten to mention so far, is that I’ve now driven Alex’s car a few times since I’ve been here. I even drove Vicki, Robert and Alex home the night we went out for dinner.
I have to say it takes a LOT of concentration to give way to the other side of the [...]Dinner
Last night Alex and I went out to dinner to a restaurant. It’s actually the first time we’ve eaten out with just the 2 of us. It ended up being a later night than we should have, since Alex has his first day back at work today and poor Alex got very little sleep. So now I [...]
