Morning all,

up bright and early as usual, look at the calender and realize 2 things:
1. I have my German exam tomorrow for visa purposes, which I had completely forgotten about, so today will be filled with much cramming of studying for that.
2. Clocks go back an hour tomorrow night, in case anyone forgot.

On top of that, today will be filled with going to the bike shop, picked up my wheelset yesterday, and now need help getting a stubborn casette off, which was able to break my chain whip last night. Then pay off the rest of my debt to the shop, and be happily on my way, finally with disc brakes on my bike. Various bacons and cooking procedures will be happening today as well. Fun fun.

Enjoy your day guys; hope it's better than mine.

    No they don't. It's Sunday morning :P [/pedanticness]

    Morning!
    Well, i've managed a morning of 6am starts, and, I don't feel too bad to be honest. I think I need a few lie ins over the weekend, and learn to go to bed a little earlier during the week, but I'll get there.
    Hopefully work won't be too bad today. It's been gettin me down a bit at the moment as I'm gettin pushed into a corner with some issues, and nobody throwin me a stick to help me out. Ah well.
    Hopefully weekend will consist of a bit of riding. Thinking Lee Quarry on Saturday.
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    Exes and Double-exes.

    It's Bacons day, and sitting here, that's all that matters.

    Somewhere, a pig died to to have its sweet flesh delivered to me. Who am I to deny a pig its destiny?

    That aside, I can hear caffiene calling me! Onwards!

    Morning fweaks

    Couple of lectures, then off home for the weekend. Brother's birthday today so I'll buy him a present on the way to the station.

    Was hoping for a weekend of bikes but that hockey ball has fucked my knee up nicely and I'm still struggling to move it and walk on it let alone cycle.

    Morning all,

    TFI Friday. Only 3 1/2 hours until I escape for a weekend.

    No World Cup Rugby to watch but there is a Grand Prix.

    I can see a night of beer and pizza ahead.

    Morning. Another day of meh, cough, hack, cough. Had an armful of blood removed yesterday and it still hurts.

    Woke up this morning utterly convinced it was Saturday, wishful thinking I guess.

    Oh well. Bacons in the fridge so all good.

    Love n hugs

    Today is also panic friday for me. I'm trying to sort out a problem with my forks after a monumental servicing screw up yesterday. I'm hoping thta it's just too much oil in the damper but it might not be. :?

    mornings all

    today is a relaxing friday so no panicing peter this end.

    i am aching after the second full body strength session, but its a good ache. I feel like i have started at the beginning again, low sttrength levels, but i am really concentrating on form so the ache is good.

    3 boiled eggs for breakfast have left me full, PROTEIN!!!!!!!!

    today is sorting out the material needed to create a full on mumy outfit for tomorrow nights sub-basement party (two levels below street level no one can here you scream! hehehe)

    Just been outside to see my bosses Van Nicholas, very very jealous, i want!

    Jammy twat.

    Morning Missing Links,

    Today we're off to see peeps we know over near Windsor, which is a better than a kick in the teeth. Will do a quick nightride in the woods tonight so looking forward to that even if you can do the whole lot in about half an hour.

    Hopefully you won't have one again... :shock:

    The knuckle on my right hand is slowly turning green. When it's developed into a bruise, I'll show CWNT what one really is ;):lol:

    It's a sad sign when the highlight of your week is the ability to take a shower :cry:
