Morning Tarts

This is your official start to the weekend.

I'm off to work shortly, on the bus followed by a trip in to Derby where the girlfriend is buying me a pub lunch and then we're off to a gig. I'll be riding tomorrow though. How is everyone else?

    Fisters and fistees,

    Friday - bacons are just around the corner, then its off to Bilsten to collect one of our welding kits back from servicing.

    I might even be able to pick up a new seat post later too.

    That's my day sorted! 8)

    morning intelligent lifeforms.

    Today I am planning to complete another 10 hours work, bringing this weeks total to 50 hours.

    I then plan to win the Euromillions lottery this evening, spending the whole weekend surrounded by hookers and blow. I will then come back into work on Monday morning, give my five assistants a million each so that they can leave. I will then proceed to either A: Tell my boss to stick his job or if he's not in B: Take a giant dump in his desk drawer.
    Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

    Monring Maggotts,

    It's still bucketing with rain in the South East. Roads are flooded and the highways are actually behaving! Amazingly, two days in a row there was no backed up traffic on the M3. Unbef*ckinglievable!

    Today I have an afternoon appointment in Hertfordshire, then head back to the worst Midlands.

    Wishing all the Crudities a great Friday :¬)

    MORNING!

    In a great mood today, despite only 5 hours sleep, having lost my bus pass at some point on Wednesday and forgot to take my antibiotics again this morning (messes up when I can have breakfast) :roll:

    On the up side I went to Derby last night without The Boot, I've lost weight this week, got my face snogged off last night and had the promise of future more exciting dates (Plural!!) with The Hot Photographer.:D :lol::lol:

    Today is work, tonight I will be at an acoustic gig that some friends are playing...

    And today is my last full Friday at work until September! :lol: 8)

    morning (insert insult)

    friday is upon us, and i feel gooood, interval training at the gym last night, doing really well at the minute, enjoying the challenge, this week a total of 35k has been run which isnt bad.

    future MiL is round tonight for food and whine and then i have to give her a lift home, therefore no beers, but that is probably a good thing as tomorrow is a day at afan

    i'm off to do 4 hours work before leacving to go home, god i love being an engineer if only for the half day fridays!

    Morning bumders

    Last day down in London today, heading back home tomorrow, can't wait to play bikes again. Quiet day in today, things are moving on quite nicely with the new girl, shame I'm starting 6 weeks of placements next week, really great timing... fortunately I think for a couple of the weeks I'm just a few miles from her place :wink:

    Anyway I'm off to buy breakfast, laters

    Morning.

    Had a nice row with the boss this morning as she's an overbearing control freak and seems determined to f*ck my day up but since it's the last day before 2 weeks off she can jog the fcuk on.

    Gonna hit some trails and shizzle at the weekend and start of next week (since I don't have to be at work). :)

    Hello Spongmonkeys

    bit of a meh day today, not eally up for it, 5 trips to Birmingham International followed by a run out to Liverpool and back, not the most thrilling, especially after yesterdays spare and do nothing all day, day. Got up this morning and had a "The Apprentice" catch up, I'm in team Tom to win I think, although Jim and Helen are close. This was quite enjoyable, despite the lack of proper breakfast foods leaving me with cinnamon bread, fruits and yoghurts, I mean do I look continental?

    New camera has arrived after leaving Northampton yesterday to be sent to Keighly in Yorkshire, to Manchester, to Lichfield and then here, meaning its been past my house at least once.

    But anyway, have a great day all of you, even Fully-Sprung, lets hope he has a day where nothing goes wrong (if only so we dont have to read about it ;) )

    Morning nice people :)

    The bike commute in this morning was scuppered by last minute mechanical gremlins so had to get the train instead, which wasn't so bad seeing as it was raining all morning in London.

    On the plus side I'm off out this lunchtime to scope out the best pub for my work leaving drinks in 2 weeks time then hopefully a quiet run up to the weekend when some biking needs to be done. And holiday in Lanzagrote to look forward to in 3 weeks 8)

    you were searching for an overweight oriental toddler for your road bike? Fair play for admitting to it but I think it's possibly not a recommended upgrade. Yeah he's older than that now though, I had him with my ex Bin Goh Wing

    I managed to go a whole 3 days without the monster catching me, but he caught me up good last night!

    No bacon, but fish & chips with curry sauce for lunch :P

    Final shuttle launch in 5 minutes so will it make it up or end in a ball of fire?
