Day 13: Checkmate And Headaches

Do not adjust your set… The 365-day trainer charity challenge gets groovy

Now there’s a wake-up call for a Monday morning! Is it the 365-day trainer challenge or a Magic Eye picture? Look at it long enough and suddenly an image of Peter Capaldi in costume as the 12th (or 13th?) Doctor will reveal itself. Possibly. Or you may just get a headache.

Anyway, here’s what I’m wearing today for real. No, honestly. Looks like I dressed in the dark, doesn’t it? But about 12 years back, buying Vans Classics in different colours and mixing ’em up was all the rage. Well, among geeks like me anyway. I’ll probably just look a bit of prat as I venture out in them today, but hey, it’s all for charity. (And does this mean I can wear the other two later in the  year? Technically, they’re a different pair…)

Anyway, as I said yesterday, the posts may be a little briefer this week. There’s the second half of the office move today, and then I’ve got three magazines to commission over the next few days (three? Yeah, some news on that soon.) I’ve got something a bit good in store, though, if I can find someone with an iPhone who’ll help me out (I’m an Android man myself – //insert gag here// – which sometimes can be a pain when you use a Mac laptop and the two refuse to talk).

And if I get bored at lunch, I can always do a crossword.

Usual sign off:

Current total: £260
