Morning

Hungover in a hotel in Llandudno, the eldest child has been awake since 5.30

So he is now watching ice age 2 on the iPad while I try and study corporate finance and strategy. He is getting on better than I am

Today is obviously lots of breakfast meat in the hotel, followed by a swim and then family stuff in Llandudno. Heading home late tonight for a bit more studying and getting ready for another fun week at work

    Something tells me today is going to be fail. Day started with me pouring water over my cereal -_-

    Today will consist of watching tv, watching football, looking at bike stuff I can't afford, and most likely MW3
    FARKBOOK TWATTER Happiness is my fucking mood!
  • Foggy outside.

    ...and in come to think of it.
  • Epic fog on the ride home this morning. Visor was useless so it stayed up. Love riding home from work on the motorbike on Sunday morning. Just about to consume Sweet and Sour pork with rice and spring rolls and a can of stella. Then its bed for me as I'm working tonight :(

    Wish i was still on annual leave.

    On the plus side, finally got MBUK to read at work :)

    Loads of people have been i'll at work recently and on Friday I felt like I was coming down with it but felt fine yesterday. Today I feel like I've been hit by a truck! Therefore porridge, tea and lemsip with some added anti-flu stuff whist staying wrapped up will be the order of the day.

    Mornin' All,

    Foggy as f*** here too and some dozy twots out on the road this morning with no lights on :roll: Hopefully it will clear up a bit as I'm trying to get out on the bike now my back is pretty much sorted. Have also been thinking about buying some new skis for the coming season - I'm going cold turkey for the white stuff right now!

    No bike play today unfortunately, but if I get my act together and get some work done I may have time to head to cannock tomorrow and hopefully do the full xc loop and hit stile cop afterwards. I'll also be watching the tennis too laters. Anyway its about time for breakfast.

    Morning church dodgers

    making a ramp for the lockup this morning so a bus mans holiday type day for me.
    Then bacons later this morning when Tesco opens as need to shop. Have some quality chicken, broccoli and carrots left in the fridge so can feel a couple of additions being added and a large pan of soup being made later.
    Foggy here too and friend said she didn't go out riding in the Lakes this morning (where I was supposed to be) as thick as pea soup.

    Meh!

    Really starting to feel the effects of being completely inactive now.

    Finding it hard to sleep, complete lack of motivation to do anything at all, short tempered, have lost weight, but the middle bit seems to be expanding rapidly (doubless down to my leg wasting away). I need to MTFU and pull myself together. Had planned to go to the gym today, figure I can still exercise my upper body and the 1 functional leg. BBA with that now either though.

    Tesco will be delivering the shopping this afternoon, I might pop into town in a minute and buy something, see if that cheers me up.

  • Morning all, somehow still. Just got done cooking and devouring a delicious spaghetti bolognese, wife is all smiles now too.

    Now got some sausages cooking, and some fries. I'm having one of my fat days. Oh well.
  • Greetings Maggots,

    Well, no riding as the bikes are up for sale, so they're all cleaned, shiny and ready to be photographed for the big sell off next week.

    Other than that today will be a day of laziness by my standards, so I'll probably watch a movie or two and do shopping in the early afternoon. Ah, must bath the cat too, so note to self.. find the waterproof gardening gloves

    The girlfriend has given me her lurgy so riding cancelled today, gutted as on six day weeks for the rest of the year. She's gone for a day out in Rhyl so at least I can play mw3 in peace.

    Most likely popping into work for a bit followed by asda to see if they have have any of the awesomely gooey brownie bites

    Apart from the ditch part missing, spot on. You can't let them think your money is their money or you're stuffed forever.

    Now to sort out bacon and fried eggs for lunch :) Wanted a Full English Lunch but we're clean out of sauasages.

    I'd be ditching ya cos you're a p*ssy for only getting thought a ton and half, but I do like my men manly.
    If you want, I can pop round and show her what a real financial and for that matter sexual liability looks like. Seriously though, we all know youre in the right so take comfort from that

    Good Afternoon Freaks! :D

    Busy day already - finished polishing an air-rifle stock, reassembled it all and put a few pellets through it to check everything works. Scope still needs a bit of fine tune zeroing. Took the hound for a walk down the beach - ended up being a nearly 9 mile walk. :shock:

    Just waiting for Sunday lunch to be served, the got some fettling to do on the commuter bike.

    Might go out for a full English breakfast at the local cafe for tea.

    Laters...

    Afternoon gimpwads.

    Got a crackload of work to do today, and no milk for the gallons of tea I predict I'll need. I'm about to go to the shop to rectify this grave error.
  • Afternoon, today started with a quick ride in the fog, then watching the football later

    cheers for the support boys, i have this feeling like i might have taken this too far but it needs to be sorted and i think me standing my ground and staying away tonight might cement that
