The Tutor2u Grade Booster tour kicks off tomorrow, so today I have a long train journey up to Newcastle and 3 different Premier Inns to sleep in this week.
Fingers crossed that the new knee is not too unhappy about it all.

She is a mini-me - although slightly inaccurate as she’s now 4 inches taller than me, and way more clever! But that inherited sass comes back to bite me on the arse at times.

Super F2F physio session today - bending the new knee to 100 degrees now, able fo straight leg lift, tried walking normally on the stairs and could. But apparently I have a very long stride and walk very quickly for someone who has just had a new knee πŸ˜‚ - but ahead of all recovery milestones πŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ

Would you like me to use properly scratchy wool that shrinks in the wash?
And what are you after? Do you think you could carry off a bikini? Or are you after a more modest mankini? Or even some classic budgie smugglers?
