Workshop Day 1

Yes, I'm back because my lift decided to drive back to Cambridge and back tomorrow. Suits me because 7 hours of sleep in my own bed are going to be much better than 6 or so in a partially lit (and as it's day, brightly lit) hall on an airbed.

I have this strange sensation again of feeling absolutely knackered while at the same time feeling invigorated. During the day, we worked on advanced versions of the foundation exercises and then applied them to the first four moves as well as an advanced version of Parting Wild Horse's Mane (which I actually a lot more fluid and logical than the basic version, although it's harder work). In the evening we did 90 minutes of Push Hands, which was very good indeed.
Catering was amazing as always, especially that Satay sauce for the tofu dish.

Right, bed. I'm going to sleep like a baby...

OMG

Obviously, I had to check my emails and AFP sent me (and everybody else who signed up for the London mailing list) a nude photo of herself. :o)

Best food photo in a while

You're doing it wrong!

I'm home. Well, have been since a bit after 6 but just got off a long phone conversation with my mum.

Workshop was fantastic but hard. In the morning we practised a whole new level of the snake-cock-monkey sequence, it was almost like learning it for the first time. Unlike yesterday's Parting Wild Horse's Mane, I don't think I'll go back to this version before I can do the previous one perfectly. My body still has some changing to do. So yeah, good practice, good workout and a good time with loads of other people, most of whom would usually not be part of my social circle.
The social side of it is great, too. Literally everyone helps out in any way they can, be it setting up/taking down the tables and chairs for the meals, setting/clearing the tables, getting the food out of the kitchen (which is also staffed by members) etc. Just wonderful.

I'm going to sleep well tonight...

Grrr

At the bottom of facebook photos is now a "Like" link (you're supposed to click it when you like the photo). After you click the link it changes to "Unlike".
