Morning f**kwits

I'm not sleeping enough. I'm absolutely dead to the world today. Tea is having an affect though.

Not much to report today.

    Morning belmers.

    Today will be meh, as will be the remainder of the week.

    Oh and a message to the retards that think that wearing high vis jackets whilst driving along in their company car - they don't make you look like a member of SB, they just make you look 'Special' in an 'I can count to potato' way.
    Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

  • Morning all,

    Patiently waiting to hear about the new job, hopefully should know something today or tomorrow about the next step. Morning has been spent on the home trainer, out in town getting card for my moms birthday sent off, and food supplies for today.

    Enjoy your day everyone!

    Morning,

    Good result yesterday - got an invite to visit friend down in Cornwall where my main holiday 'job' will be occupying their 11 y/o lad who's mad about mountain biking and is not bad at it. Might even wangle a trip to Gawton while we're down there :-)

    Got to wash the mud off The Bruiser and take it down to my LBS this morning to get the rear mech re-attached. Then I might go for a quick blat on the roadie this afternoon to work off a few of the pies and chips I've been tucking into recently. But just now, need a big cup of coffee, doesn't matter how much I sleep I always seem to feel tired!

  • Cheated on my maths assignment by doing it on the computer and working out what had gone one then doing it manually.

    So, what I would have said is...no matter what else happens during the day I WILL NOT BE STUCK IN A JAM ON THE M11.

    ..but what happend was the God of Maths Assignments looked down and said ...'we'll see about that..'

    And then I had to listen to some very uninspired arguments about benefits capping.

    And dentist this evening.

    Magic!
  • Morning Homos

    Off to get my staples out in a minute. Can then start moving my leg through 90deg.

    Progress. Yay!
  • Monday meh Maggots!

    Home based today. Motivated not, but I have stuff that needs to be done.
    Inhaling a bucket of tea while I consider getting myself tasered in order to wake me up..

    Enjoy the day all...

    A bit meh today, but it is monday after all.
    Had a bit of fun at Dalby yesterday, MrF managed to not get cramp in his legs until we got back to the car, better than last week, when it kicked in on the trail.
    Workmeh as usual, followed by eating, unpacking and sleeping. Seem to have decided to sack of the OU course already, as I just don't have the time.
    Ah well, on we go...

    ?

    don't forget photos & weight etc. I'm waiting on details of the bars but as it's new year I expect it will take a while for them to respond, plus I might chance a frame instead of a whippet.

    Also reminds me I must email DX and find out where the f**k my cnc jockey wheels are :evil:

  • Staples are now out.

    Looks like I could possibly have a pretty big clot under one of the cuts. Nurse said she couldn't be certain if it was a clot, or just swelling and bruising though so has left it for the time being. If it IS a clot, it will find a way out at some point, in which case, I'll have to ship myself off to A&E to get it seen to.
    Niiiice.
  • Afternoon All,

    Surprisingly successful day so far, so something is now certain to go to absolute sh1te later on....

    Afternoon All, I have a whole 7 days off, first leave since I started my job in Oct so I have spent the morning pampering myself. Next to go trial contact lens', and resist shopping.

    Plus, I want the new Rayman game for the xbox, amazon have it for £15. Worth a buy?

    You seem to have lasted longer than I did, I took one look at the book and realised I knew fark all about geoscience, mainly as I didn't even take a geography GCSE, w2hat I did do though was recoup the cost of the course by getting an NUS card and getting discounts and such, so it paid for itself, and I even made profit.

    Evening Scuttlers

    Back from my first actual go at driving up the valleys, not too bad, i stayed mostly awake too. The boneshaker bike still not here, fortunately I'm on 9-3 all week so can get the bus.

    Nipped in for a Gym sesh before coming home, might head over the North star in a bit for "Big Money Pub Quiz"

    In a decent mood as the bike only needs a £20 part and a half hour of labour to get the rear mech sorted. Looks like The Bruiser will be back in business by the weekend, would have been sooner but they have to order the bits from Hotlines.

    Evening bumders

    It's cold and shit here, wish I was back in Alicante. I've decided I'm fed up of being in London. It sucks, want bikes and hills and stuff. 7 more weeks to go then 7 back home for holiday and sheep fisting stuff.

    Anyways did lots of work today at uni which wasn't very pleasant stuff, then went for a run, then did more work, then watched tv and did more work, how fun life is...

    What is it then? looks sort of spesh'ish.

    Is this the one you bought from that flexy bike shop in korea or wherever it is?

    Looks pretty nice. For a hippy bike of course.

    looks like a epic doesnt it, but the pivot is in different position.
    Gary fisher Superfly 100. thats what i can tell by the pics but the rear brake position is slightly different.

    I bought it from www.flyxii.com in Hong Kong, and thank you, allthough the pictures dont do it justice, plus it looks out of proportion in the pics :?
