On Sunday 29^th March 2015 I took part in the Liverpool Half Marathon. It started at 9.00am and about 5000 other people took part. The weather was very windy and it rained for most of the time. However this did not affect my time. My finishing time was 1 hour 41 minutes and 38 seconds, which I was very pleased with.

On Wednesday 1^st April 2015 I went to the Soul Café on Bold Street for the Wednesday social. It was very relaxed and enjoyable. Everyone ordered a drink and we sat around two tables. About halfway through we saw some people outside dressed as bumble bees. They very kindly came into the café to meet us and have some photographs taken with us. They were part of two theatre companies called The Eggmen and the Boombooms promoting Lightnight in Liverpool, due to take place in May 2015.
