BDFPA British Single Lifts - July 2008

I competed in the single lifts over the weekend 26th/27th July. It was a pretty disappointing weekend on the lifting front, after a year of steady progress and many successes. This time I was hamperd by a shoulder injury. I did enough to retain the raw 50+ bench title on the Saturday, but sadly I couldn't get a lift on the board on the Sunday. I suppose I did come away with a British title and qualification for the World Championships in October, so it wasn't a complete disaster. But it was fair to say that it was not one of my better performances.

However I met up with some old friends again and made some new ones to boot, and making friends and renewing acquaintances can never be a bad thing.

Tali At 17 Months

Time for Tali's monthly pictures again. She was 17 months last Friday, but I forgot to take the camera, so here are her pics, a few days late. There's a couple with my ugly mug in them this time. Normally I'm the other side of the camera.

I got some nice pictures of the other dogs as well, which I'll create a new post for tomorrow. Until then...

Sunday Walk

I went out with the dogs for a short Sunday walk today - and came home four hours later exhausted and with some nice pictures.

Raani's Birthday Walk

It wasn't just Raani I got some good pictures of on the birthday walk. Here are some of the others. I tried my hand at a few landscape ones as well.
