My knees aren't too bad, just one is a bit painful bending much of the time so I am just at the start of arthritis so all the more reason to reduce the weight it is carrying sooner rather than later.

 

Mum has decided to help me as hanging round with me is helping her keep on the straight and narrow diet and weight wise as well. Yesterday she suggested that we should meet up once or twice a week for a walk round the park. Today she rang up and said meet me at the shops in 20 minutes, she lives about 1½km up the hill from me. I have just got back from the walk and a flat white. Hellyer's Creek is really quite beautiful on a clear winter morning even when the tide is mostly out.
