Retrying MapMyWalk app

Went for a walk this evening with my step-buddy (who bought me a naught little Gin & Slim in a can for our walk home!) and thought I'd give MapMyWalk another go - it's been over a year since I last used it. Always quite liked it but I got out of the habit of walking.

Tonight MapMyWalk thinks I walked over 7 miles this evening.
But my FitBit thinks I walked less than 6 miles ALL DAY.

So who do I believe? (without getting out a proper map and tracking my route. I'm too lazy for that. That's why I have apps!)

Then I took a closer look at my map. It looks like I crossed the river a few times. I didn't..... So there I think is the answer to my question.

I don't remember having this problem last time I used MapMyWalk, but then again I used to use my mobile internet data and this time I kept it off line. So perhaps it's struggled to know my exact location?

Anyway.... I still like the app. I've installed it on my iPod (sim free hense not using data) and like that it plays my music as well as the little voice piping up and giving me little updates on how far it thinks I've gone and how fast it thinks I'm moving.

It's all just a bit of fun after all. I'm hardly training to be an Olympian!

Facebook has changed it’s policy for posts to Facebook pages like mine. They are only showing posts to a few likers unless I pay to boost the views. Since I don't earn money from my blog (or at least not much, not even enough to buy one posh a coffee a week) I wont be doing that. The best way to make sure you will see my blog posts is to subscribe by email up there on the right. I usually only email once a week and include an invitation to my blog hop so you can share your posts too.

You can also go to my page, hover over the “liked” button and select get notifications. Then you will see my posts and status updates in your notifications. Mumma Walker on Facebook

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers: Liver and bacon with onions and gravy and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’ liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz butter 2 tbsp sunflower oil 4 tbsp plain flour 1 onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky bacon rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1 beef stock cube 500ml/18fl oz jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato ketchup salt and freshly ground black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
