Monday:<\/b> Gym: weights, good workout, pushed myself. Worked on my codeproject article. Finished reading Into Africa, by Martin Dugard. Fascinating and well researched.

Watched a couple episodes of Taboo<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sunday:<\/b> Tokai park walk<\/a>. A little satisfying DIY and then managed to break my lounge door. Frustrating.
