I’m aching this morning after the Palma bike ride, but I did sleep like a baby which was good. It was all a bit of a rush this morning because the fencing classes were at 08.45, so I was in the gym nice and early and did my 5km, I must be getting better at it as I didn’t bang my head today. I got down to breakfast after a quick shower to find it wasn’t open yet. How sad is that? You should be too late for breakfast when on holiday, but too early……Anyway I ended up in the Lido and had kedgeree again, there’s something very nice about curry for breakfast.

I got to fencing nice and early to find it was only myself and the instructor, Janet. Luckily a third person turned up, but unfortunately she was new and rather timid, which isn’t an asset when getting stabby. We ran through the basics again, before the new person cried off, this left just myself and Janet to have a couple of bouts. It was fast, furious and very hard work.

Another quick shower and I popped down to the Queen’s room where Jane was taking a line-dancing class. It’s still carnage out there, but they are getting better. It must be difficult being an experienced line-dancer as most on the floor look to be at Jane’s level.

I’m off to see Nigel Vardy’s insights lecture at 11am, the first I’ve attended on the cruise, all the others have clashed with fencing, so I’m looking forward to being educated
