    Not half as disappointing as watching a British sunset instead of the Mallorcan one I was supposed to see tonight :cry:

    Who's your flight with, mate?

    Any chances of getting away tomorrow, or not worth it now?...

    Sorry for your misfortune, you must be absolutely gutted.

    Was supposed to be going to Majorca with Ryanair on Friday past for a week with the club.
    Got a transfer to Saturday and was packing the bike when the 6 o'clock news said no flights till Monday, at the earliest.
    At that point I decided it wasn't worth it and hit the refund button :cry:

    Working freelance and freezing weather here means I may as well go back to work and get paid.
    Got to up the cold weather training for the Caledonia Etape now.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Just had a serious thought about it.

    It may be cold but the sun is going to shine and I don"t "have" to be at work.

    Sod it. Week off for me. The bike is ready and waiting 8)

    Well, my week in Ireland has gone west ! (or rather the flight is still in Bristol).
    Supposed to be going to Lisbon for a long weekend on Friday too............ I'm not holding my breath !

    :(
    Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
    Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved

    Is this eruption re-settling the carbo foot print balance of all the plane exhaust gases ? Or it the Volcano one big polluter ?

    I need to know whether to trade in my car for either a Prius or a new Z4.

    Z4... The other one is a Toyota, so will probably get recalled, or get you killed! :wink:
