Following last week’s credit card farce, I applied for another – Halifax Clarity – and was surprised to be accepted at the same limits as Tandem. There’s no cashback, which doesn’t really bother me, and no foreign exchange fees, which I do need. Result.
Started doing Couch to 5K, the main aim being to be in a fit state to do a Parkrun. I’ve learnt so far that where I live is very hilly, and I definitely have calf muscles.
Sunday saw another visit to Newark. Unlike the previous attempt, the Castle Barge was open but with a rather uninteresting beer range. Inevitably, I ended up in Just Beer instead.
