Morning All

Too much food last night!

It turns out my missk can cook and very well too! Now she just needs to learn how i like my bacon!

A day of meh but getting ever closer to the end of this report i have been writing since January! 125pages down another 60 or so to go!

I predict the forum today is going to continue on the Grill the Gash theme, and Joshtp will protest about being a fudge packer a few more times!

    Good morning crudders, alas it's not sunny in Coventry today, it's a bit damp, so I won't risk the mojo on tonight ride, although whether I venture out all depends on if I have a meeting tonight, considering how crap I feel, I'd rather go to a meeting than ride a bike, I must be really ill :shock:

    Got a shit load of work to do, this forum can no longer disrupt my works, laters

    Morning Crud peeps,

    been reading and laughing at this forum for a while and am ready to get involved, be gentle with me please (It is my first time!) :shock:

    this morning i took the car in to the fixers, windscreen wipers broke then pedalled back home, in the rain!! :( Good start.

    Need to clean the house as Mrs 13 has been away for a week, thinking of some cleaning related questions for Kitty and Missbint, they'll surely know.

    Now need food, drink and housework avoidance till work tonight.

    I am working from home this morning too. But, alas very little has been getting done of actual work, only housework, although I did not specify what work I would be actually doing, just work, and this is...therefore the way I see it I am doing nothing wrong.

    Got a feeling my ride will be rained off later :evil: However, I shall console myself with pizza eating should this occur. I shall make sure said pizza also contains much bacons.

    Climbed rather well last night considering I was sick, getting my mojo back and lead a few routes.....ahhhh happy Binty today.....for now :lol:

    I blame their delays on deciding to put everything in those f**king stupid boxes. FFS do I really need an A4 sized box for a pack of ferrules?

    Yeh best bet is to dig a practice ditch at the end of the garden just so your ready when the time comes.

    I mean throwing bodies in ditches with there heads pointing backwards takes practice unless your sheeps... I find the emergency resustation practice dummies work well to get used the weight and all :p
