Morning chumps
Today I will be trying to set work in order so that I can book the rest of the week off.
No easy task!
Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

  • Over the weekend my Blackberry went blue with everyone telling me that the work I did last week was wrong. So this morning is going to be spent rewriting blx in a different way.

    Morning bumders

    1) It's stupidly cold
    2) I have "a cold" but it feels more like man flu is coming
    3) I have to go round and walk the grandmother's hound shortly.
    4) It's ridiculously cold.
    5) I'm off to Cannock for the day where I'm promised it's cold and icey
    6) I love lists
    7) Got the latest Assassin's Creed yesterday and if it weren't for the fact someone is coming to give me a lift to Cannock I could gladly spend the day playing on it.

    Laters

    Edit. I just remembered the bike has Kenda SB8's on it too and I really can't be arsed with changing both tyres, maybe stick something muddy/spikey up front and leave the back as slippery as an eel, should be interesting.

    mornin

    Cold morning due to the ferkin heating being fubar (again), hopefully fixed before Christmas. Thankfully spent a couple of hours with a chainsaw yesterday, so whilst my back is killing me, there is plenty of wood.

    My legs are also exceptionally sore due to a 16 mile run yesterday, the first half was good, but the 2nd part was basically ice - so slipped more than ran.

    Today is dealing with legal type kn0bs and some study later.

    Exes and double exes, and triple exes. Hell, this one's for the quad exes too.

    Toooo much caffiene this morning and I'm buzzing like an ugly birds vibe.

    Today will mostly be spent controlling the shakes and sticking some stainless bits together before delivering them to the customer at the end of the day. Built a bike yesterday for SWMBO, so I'll stop off at the LBS, enroute to said customer, and pick up a 180mm adaptor for the front caliper.

    Onwards! Definately onwards! Did I say I was buzzing? I'm sure I said I was buzzing. Yeah.

    I think I just bit my tongue.....

    Morning,

    I'm on a recovery day after 7 days of drunken debauchery, culminating in a 12 hour session in London yesterday. I've not even seen my bikes for a month due to drinking and working on Salisbury plain for 2 weeks. It's just too dammed cold for me to get my bike out today, therefore I will be whacking up the central heating (along with the gas bill) and curling up in front of the TV with bacons and brews.

    On another note, (I know I shouldn't but…………..) It found it highly amusing watching people cycling on the pavement and falling off due to ice when I drove into town on Saturday.

  • Morning homos.

    My mum went home this morning, so returning to normality for a couple of days before christmas now.

    Have now decided not to sell the Edison. Seems daft seling a bike I'm extremely happy with to buy one I've never tried. Instead she's being stripped down, anodized black, then completely upgraded.

  • Morning Bum Nuts!

    I'm not in work until 3rd January! WOOOOOOOO!! :D:D:D
    Feckin busy week ahead of me though. Today my mission is to get as many Christmas Presents as I can be ar$ed buying and then getting as many wrapped as I can be ar$ed with too.

    Then this afternoon is my Departments Christmas Do. Meal in a pub, followed by drinking in said pub. Hot Librarian will be there, and she's off home tomorrow, so we'll see what happens.

    Anywho's, laters!

    Morning Twatwaffles,

    Off to Bluewater for some shopping :-( although will probably escape the worst of it by heading to the nearest coffee shop with a bike mag. Out for beer 'n' curry tonight :-) That's all for now...

    brilliant, the office d!ckhead is not sat in our cluster, frustrating! he's the type that he has to use a handsfree at ALL times and wears it constantly, so when you are talmking to him and his phone rings, he answers and just walks off

    meh!

    /\ /\ got one of them (d1ckhead that is, not hands free). Every time his phone rings, or someone asks him something, he has to stand up out of his chair and talk really loud.
    May have something to do with him being a shortass. (no offence meant to shorter people in general of course :D )

    Anyways, last day today :D:D:D Bring on some good rides over the next 2 weeks.

    afternoon clag nuts, the office is dead, like not a soul around, tomorrow is definately an early (15:30) finish i reckon!

    got a meeting from 2 til 6 today and then a meal round at some of missk's friends, which although nice, i would rather be out on the bike as the weekend at my rental units was pretty hectic and my sister is staying over at our until tomorrow! urgh!

    what i'd give for the peace and quiet of the trail!!
  • Yeah I was planning on going out today for my last ride of the year, but I'm having to wait for shitty-stink (city-link) to p-p-p-p-p-pickup a parcel.

    Today off work, then working tuesday and wednesday and back to northern land wednesday night.

    Afternooon homos

    Cannock was nice and quiet. It was very wet too, and cold. Taken a while to clean the bike, and then the house, there was a very obvious trail of mud leading from the door upstairs to the bathroom but that's sorted now. This afternoon will be meh on the playstation, followed by possible stripping the bike down a bit and giving the bb a look over, then climbing later.

    Tomorrow is DH play. Win.

    they did deliver :) now it's all fitted and ready to ride tommorow

    Well that was pretty rubbish!

    I am pretty pi$$ed, but nobody else was really. Hot Liibrarian only had 2 drinks then left for the cinema, my minion left not long later and it ended up just me and some other girl (not so hot) drinking until 11. Meh. I'm no where near as drunk as I want to be.

    Meh. Tonight's sucked really. Should have gone out on Friday. Meh
