Archery Weirdness
May. 10th, 2026 11:43 pm11:31pm: Leaving this entry a bit late, but what else is new? But, in regards to my subject heading, there was indeed weirdness today at archery. Yesterday I did really well at 40 metres with a better score than I got at 30 metres. This being the case I signed up for the 40m today - and I did terribly! I mean I got a PB, but the first time I did it I'm pretty sure I didn't have my new limbs and bowstring, so the score I needed to beat wasn't anything huge.
Still, I have no idea why I suddenly had such a hard time! The only thing I can think of is the shoot was something called a "Ranking Round" and there were a lot more people than usual so there wasn't as much room between me and the next archer. Also, I think I usually stand a lot further to the right of the target than I did today, so my aim was off. But still very strange.
In other news, I spoke to Mum this evening, she and Dad are currently in France :D and speaking of strange, it's raining over there and according to Mum it's the first rain they've had in 10 days. Which considering they went to England sounds most unusual! The weather really is whack these days...In more exciting news, tomorrow (French time) they're off to Malta! I've asked Mum to video call me when she's out and about there so
I can see what it looks like.
And I just realised, I totally forgot to wish her Happy Mother's Day - whoops...I should send her a message before I turn in. Which I should probably do now because I didn't get nearly enough zzzzs yesterday and I don't want to end up with a huge sleep debt. Even though the Giro d'Italia is on and do enjoy a bit of bike riding action.
For now though, ta-ta!
