Morning losers!
Slept well last night, so am feeling quite good this morning. I finally got something I've been struggling with at work to behave yesterday, so I'm finally getting on with things. Need to send a chainring back to CRC, and that's about it for my day really.
Laters!

It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Morning Scuttlers
Yesterday work rang me and woke me to make me come in early, today I arrive to find no phone call and they wanted me in 45 minutes later and work over. The later is not happening.
I am about to have coffee and look at pictures of Emeli Sandi because I can
Later I will be doing err, something0 -
Mornin' ear touchers
Today I have to work, but I also really should throw the debit card at Superstar and get some wheels ordered. My back hub is rapidly becoming a time-limited offer, and if I'm doing the back, I may as well do the front, and Crest/Evo combos are a give-away at the moment.
In the meantime, I need fluid as I feel like I have a hangover so I shall make my way to the break-room and comsume coffee. And water. And comtemplate watching that thing on telly tonight with Sean Bean in a skirt. Seriously. This is Sharpe we're talking about - the former Outlaw, Lord of the Ring from Winterfell who maintained Equilibrium by beating up Bond. And he's in a frock???? What is the world coming too? Not enough, clearly.
Onwards! To coffee! And shiny-bits shopping! And cross-dressing Yorkshiremen....... :?How would I write my own epitaph? With a crayon - I'm not allowed anything I can sharpen to a sustainable point.

Feeling quite fresh this morning despite being woken twice with thunderstorms last night. It’s raining again this morning so I wimped out and brought the car into work. This means I am in early and don’t have to shower again either so well organised to start the day.
Tea or coffee to start?
Might need to spend some time looking for a winter break for some skiing / snow boarding as the deals are getting snapped up fast.

You can go off people.... not jealous at all
Last night replaced all wheel bearings in bike A, serves me right for being a tight arse and putting the uber cheap large tolerance ones in last time. Rode in to work, for some reason i'm riding like a god this morning, lets hope it lasts until friday nights race...0 -
Cockjanglers,
Last nights sleep was very much disturbed, then couldnt get back to sleep as was so angry about yesterdays works goings on! :evil:
Today i have the current boss down to throw about some chaos as only he knows how, then its tuesday night which means ride night. Now i'm no fair weather rider but i am thinking with the amount of rain that came down last night, no where is going to be ridable?
Onwards to proper coffee, musli and chaos0 -
Morning homos.
Looks like I'm going to have to cancel my indoor snowboarding weekend as it's going to clash with a funeral.
I suggested holding the funeral at the snowboarding place, but alas, no dice.
Richie, glad you're having a good holiday. If you have any more tales of what a good time you're having, please, do feel free to keep them to yourself.
Back to work, apparently I need to buy a wreath, which is a new one for me as I usually just leave them in ditches. Sometimes I use a tarp. But mostly just petrol and matches.0 -

Today will be spent looking for towbars and towbar bike racks, and a campsite in Fort William for the bank holiday.
And worrying a bit about money.

I'd be willing to help you ease those money issues, have you ever seen the film indecent proposal?
Good film isn't it
I've got a downloaded file version of it, you could burn some copies onto DVD and sell them at work 0 -

Morning Crudders,
Another bad sleeper here - keep waking up really early then can't get back to sleep again so I'm knackered all the time. Am travelling North this afternoon as my Old Man is not well again - not good times really

I've got one of these BuzzRack - well made, a bit heavy, but you know it's not going to break
And, as you can see, they've got one in their "Bargain Bin" - £124.95 - how can you beat that. They've also got 3 & 4 bike ones in the "Bin" as well.
Oh! Morning all. Well, I don't know what's wrong with you lot (family health issues excepted) that's stopping you sleeping - guilty minds maybe?
I slept well The SX Trail's on the back of the car ready for Macc Forest DH tonight - let's see if my spannering to convert to a single-ring etc. holds up?
Hey you guys, you have a wonderful day.0 -
Actually been looking at one of the Thule ones, thanks for your tip off about the Bargain Bin, just saved me £25!Proutster wrote:foxc_uk wrote:'ning

Last time I was up that way is stayed here http://www.glen-nevis.co.uk.
Not too difficult to find and there is a pub / restaurant within easy walking distance. Facilities are about par for the course but the was a breakfast van parked up every morning for a hot cooked breakfast. 0 -
I'm surprised you're not doing it yourself, or is the AC a more specialised thing? My AC needs a new circuit board fitting or something like that, sod finding out how much it's going to cost, I'll just open the windows!nicklouse wrote:dropped the car off for a new AC pump.

Although having just looked at the weather forecast... thinking of sacking it all off and staying more local!0 -
Depends what its running off and where they mount it. On my Jag it was a fricking nightmare to even look at? only specialist bit is the regassing equipment really. but its the most important bitthekickingmule wrote:

well changing it would not have been that hard other than it being under the car and then you have all those compressed gasses to control.thekickingmule wrote:

not rally a carpark fix... shame as it will end up costing the same as a good bike."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
