Monday 1st February – the toothache saga continues as Henry blows in

Henry seems an appropriate name to follow Gertrude – what a pair

Went for a swim this morning. Slightly late getting into the pool because I woke up in the middle of the night with a bunged up nose and couldn’t get back to sleep so was a little lethargic first thing.

Called John Hill the dentist on the way to Yarborough and went to see him after the swim. It isn’t a filling. Just sensitive teeth due to hard brushing. He gave me a couple of different toothpastes to try. Let’s hope it kicks in quickly because I’m suffering right now.

The good news is that I now have no trips lined up for a month. This means I will be able to focus on training for the Coast to Coast. I’ve booked a starter session with one of the gym trainers. He didn’t sound as if he was going to provide much value but there again it isn’t an expensive gym.

The weather today is being provided by storm Henry. Really sounds as if it should be Hurricane Henry but it isn’t. Henry is causing a bit of chaos mind you. Joe has come home to play a Pylons gig at the Engine Shed Platform Bar and his train was delayed because of overhead line problems between York and Northallerton fwiw.

Meant I had to go and pick him up from Newark and it was a bit of a blowy drive over. Reports of overturned lorries and bridges shut to high sided vehicles. Best to bunker down at home which is what I’d do apart from the fact that we are off out to the gig.

The featured image is of the basketball hoop blown over by Storm Gertrude. Figured it wasn’t worth sorting it out until the winter is behind us. It’s safe enough propped up against the fort at the bottom of the garden.

Also enjoy the vid.
