Morning all-

Up early again today, about to head out to start the journey to my test, nearly 2 hours of being on the move to get there! Hopefully my german is good enough for this test, I think it is though, so not too worried. Drank a bit too much last night, and feel a bit zombie-esqe this morning, but a few energy drinks and some food in a bit should sort that out!

Well then Visa test, here I come. Let's get fully legal here !

    Good luck mountainmonster

    I am in the good books as managed to get home from work in time to take the family out for a meal last night. Think the second bottle of wine was the killer, or was that the champagne we opened when we got home. Wife has just appeared to get water, looking at her I don't think we are up to much today!

    Hopefully get to have a play in my new canoe & out at some Halloween party with the kids later.
  • A ride for me and then depending on how I feel I'll either laze around at home, go out to the dirt jumps or go to a hockey match.

    On another note, after my skills course the other day I feel like I'm having more fun just farking about on the street manualing around (got that dialled), finding some smallish drop offs, bunnyhoping, practising pumping down drops and other stupid things. It's strange how this stuff can be so much fun. :)

    Morning all

    My knee is still farked, in addition to not being able to ride bikes and not being able to walk properly I've discovered I can't use the clutch in the car either. This is making the weekend shit.

    So today I'll be getting lifts off the brother to various places, and not really doing much at all.

    Welcome to my life.

    Morning homos.

    Was so bored last night that I bought Civilization Revolution for the xbox. MAN that game is addictive!

    Sadly, that is where most of my weekend will be going.

    Screw this getting up early lark :)

    Legs ache as usual after last night's ride but slept like a baby last night.

    Now supping coffee and thinking about putting together the meccano-style garage shelving I've finally had delivered 6 weeks after ordering :roll: On the win side, I've bagged free tickets for the Crystal Palace v Reading match at Selhurst Park just down the road this afternoon. I don't support either team so I can enjoy a bit of stress free footy spectating (with junior in tow - hopefully we won't get sat next to South London's answer to The Missing Link).

    Then I think a lazy evening beckons.

    Morning all,

    Work till 12 today and then out on the randan in Edinburgh tonight as my mate is emigrating to NZ in a few weeks. The wife has already resigned herself to coming home without me :D Have written tomorrow off as a bad job.

    Might get an hour on the bike messing about in the woods at the back of the house though- hangover permitting...

  • Morning!
    Just watched the F1 qualifying, gotta hate Vettel. Button seemed a little concerned when asked about the yellow flag thing.

    Anywho, need to organise a meeting with a vicar today as I'm playing at my friends wedding in December, so I'm checking out the venue today hopefully. This afternoon I'm going to go on the bike. I was thinking of going Lee Quarry, but I think I'll check out the local area and see what I can find.

    For now though, a bit more TV is needed.

    Laters!

  • Well then, this is turning out to be a lot longer than I thought it would be. Thought it was going to be a computer test, but it was 3 hours of written tests, and not we have a verbal test to do soon. And then finally done, now I understand why this test was so expensive. The good part is that even though I have been here the shortest amount of time from the group of people at the test, I speak the best german by far, so I have no worries. Im just not looking forward to a 2 week waiting period to get my results back.

    Oh well.

    hello gypos.

    i hope you all feel lucky. you should feel lucky. lucky that you dont have this hangover because whilst it is painful and dissorientating for me, it would kill all you, even if i shared it out equally amongst you.

    had a superb night last night at the bar at work and considering everything costs a quid or less, i must have done some proper drrrrinking as i only have 11 of the 50 pounds i took with me in my pocket.

    i will be doing nothing for the rest of the day apart from ordering some take away (for purely medicinal purposes of course)

    Same here!

    I seem to do that as well and have absolutely no idea how because I'm fairly certain I can't drink 39 pints/JD&Cokes in a night!

    Any how's; run with mates wife done and I was a bit shocked as she fitter than I expected and my hangover took its toll! On the plus side it has cleared my head.

    Now to work on tomorrows bad head, laters losers!

    :( dropped my shock off at the LBS. It's having to be sent to Mojo... no biking for a while for me then. :cry:
    Had a bit of a food related hangover this morning, fish and chips and cake last night as a dieting last stand means I feel a bit grotty today! Ah well..
    Bought some fake blood and sorted out a costume for tonight - 6ft zombie/bloodthirsty nurse will be making an appearance in Sheffield.
    Now I'm just going to sit around and maybe make a start on this studying lark that many of you seem so keen on....before packing my bags and heading for a rendezvous with MissBint

    Worst satmeh day ever!

    Had to watch the longest game of trivial pursuit ever it lasted 4hrs between two people. Massive case of lethargy, now watching he's just not that into you with a couple :(

    And JS has died, at least that makes tonight's costume easy, shell suit, cigar, white face paint and medallions. Zombie style Jimmy. ( too soon?)
    All hail the FSM and his noodly appendage!

    Afternoon...

    ...so I got bored of being injured this afternoon and tried to play bikes instead... took the 456 to play in the local woods on the gnarlier stuff, it was ok but the knee was playing up, rolled home and decided to chuck it down some of the tracks on the big hill next to my house, that didn't end too well either so finally I tried to play in the back garden for a bit, chucking it off flights of steps and the like.

    Now my knee is stupidly painful and I'm really struggling to walk again. Not cool. It was fun though :lol:

    I think that may well be teh bestest costume of teh EvArs!

    You just need some other people to go as zombie winehouse (would anyone be able to tell the difference) and zombie Gadaffi and you would officially win at life!
  • ^ This

    I've spent the afternoon cycling round the local area. I got myself completely lost! Gotta love those moments where you just keep following a path not knowing where it goes and nobody to ask.
    One of the only people I passed was a Sheepsteeth lookalike/wannabe. Bloke in camo army trousers, black fleece and walking a beautiful Rottweiler! Evening of chillaxing now I think.

    i have a black fleece, camo trousers and a rottweiler. this chap you saw must have been a legend.
  • Although if he was wearing camo whilst not in the employment of one of the forces, he was officially a sheepsknacker. That's just a fact.

  • I forgot to mention, I was riding around an army firing area. I was getting shot at (well, they were shooting in the distance) whilst riding.
