Morning Losers!

Watched Bolt win his gold last night. I still can't understand why the 100m final is so popular, they're all a bit full of themselves thinking they're the greatest. Erm, only for 100m. Our guy can run 10,000m and still sprint at the end ;)

Today, I have no minion. She's in London watching some hockey match or something. This means I have no means of making tea. So I'm consuming the stuff now.
Still toying with the idea of buying a road bike but will have to work funds out.

Laters!

    Mornin' lollygaggers

    Back in work after a weekend 1) visiting the family, and 2) reducing the old racer to a pile of 2.a) usefull bits and 2.b) bits for the scrap man. Now all the 2.a) useful bits need shipping up to Skunkworks where, in an act out of Dr Frankenstein, they will be blended with a new chassis and frame to form 'Racer: The Next Generation' - lighter, lower, better balanced, and consequently much harder to tumble down the track.

    .....unlike the last one.

    Before all that shiz, I've got a working week to lie and cheat my way through (as is the style, in these parts), which starts on a Monday and begins with a coffee. Or two. Whichever - it starts with enough coffee to make me dead jittery and twitchy before playing with big machines and death-rays.

    Onwards! To caffiene! And the laboratory, Igor!!

    Cockjanglers,
    It was the weekend, stuff happened.
    Its now the week, no minister of chaos (who has handed in his notice) as he is on holiday, so little-no work to be done this week. (apart from applying for his job)

    Onwards to second breakfast and more caffine!

    PS
    Kev, buy it at that price, it would be rude not to

    Do it.

    Monging mongs,
    Got home yesterday after spending most of the weekend in hospital with the young un, he heals like his dad so he's awesome. Just got to keep cleaning gunk out of his hole, the joys of parenting.
    Today, the kitchen operator is on a cleaing mission so I'm trying to keep a low profile but will be ebaying old junk just to see if anyone buys it.
    Might see if I can collect other young un from nursery in his trailer. At least then there'd be bikes involved.

    In my defence, it will have gears, and suspension, and probably a dropper post. So not quite the full beard.

    So another Monday rolls around. It is not really that different to yesterday or Saturday as I was in work both those days to. I need to get out of here. On the plus side I should have plenty of pennies building up for more toys. Enforced weekend sobriety does not suit me either. Grumpy as fark this morning as useless minion did sweet FA over the weekend and it needs doing now. Minion is in for a damn good shoeing tonight when they get in.

    Is it lunch time yet?

    Later......

    Its bloody good spec hiding under there, which makes me think this Mongoose maybe of the light handed variety?

    Done the nursery run with the trailer, towed by my 29er. He was less impressed than I was:

    He just slept. 29ers rule.
