Why do you go away?

"Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving." Terry Pratchett


Or, as Joni Mitchell put it, you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone.

Tomorrow will be a good opportunity to test this theory, as I will be away on Thursday evening, playing tennis with friends. (Although I will be staying in a hotel, I'm pretty sure it won't be pink and I'm positive there will be no boutiques or swingin' hot spots.)


However, because I don't want to hear any screen doors slamming, I have pre-recorded a special class for my Thursday evening Pilates devotees to enjoy while I'm away.


If you book for the Thursday evening class as usual, I will send you the recording. Book in good time and I will send it to you in advance, so you can do the class at 5pm, if you're a creature of habit - or at any time over the next seven days, if you're not.


I shall return with new eyes, teaching my classes as usual on Sunday and bank holiday Monday. I would love it if you can join me.
