    so is that like a high and low in a short space of time then :lol:
    :lol: To be fair it was one of the first stages and they were asking where people were watching the tour from, and what would stop them watching. I said I was getting married during the tour, but it was on a rest day so wouldn't interrupt my viewing (which was luck rather than judgement). So I couldn't have had one without the other. :P

    question was who did the most with the least talent, Harms was saying Sastre rose through the ranks gradually with each passing year untill he won which was nt usually the way it worked in "that era"

    Nothing earth shattering, but just say what you mean Dave!

    Another boring day...

    can't get that one, work has a strange restriction policy.

    can see bbc, here, cyclingfans, ribble, tredz but banned from itv, ch4, evans, chainreaction and some other forums as well as ebay,fb etc.

    will keep trying the links and wait until the switch over.

    EDIT: found one :) cyclingfans added an extra link so let the no work and screen watching commence

    They're protecting you from Phil & Paul, you should be grateful!

    Did Harmon just say something about some rider dogging Farrar??!! I guess spending 3 weeks in such an enclosed environment has that effect!

    A girl at wqork just gave me a box of her old Commonwealth, Olympic and national champs kit for some Olympic stuff we're doing with the juniors at the club.

    I'm literally giddy with excitement.

    Off topic, but I needed to share.

    I'm not writing Mark off, but he hasn't impressed me the last few days :(

    It's cute she takes Delilah along, but what about Finn? You never see him in the photos.

    Maybe the photographers just don't hone in on it as much?

    Balls

    No points for me today. Greipel isn't going to contest the sprint
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    I didn't mean carrying him around like a baby, I just meant including him. I just hope that now Delilah is here he isn't getting sidelined.

    I'm sure the loving couple appreciate parenting advice from a completely random stranger on the internet.

    I mean, us random internet weirdos are only qualified to give Cav sprinting advice. Leave the parenting stuff to the weirdos on Mumsnet.

    Presumably Finn is where he is supposed to be - at school getting his education! Just where my Finn is!

    Get them in to a routine, that's what I say!

    :D Delilah is the GC baby... Finn is more of a sprinter child and has been afforded fewer resources this year and therefore we are seeing him less.
