    Morning Losers!

    Put the Cateye on the road bike yesterday, as I was curious how fast it went. Managed to get it up to about 17mph in a stretch of 30m or so. Pretty impressed to be honest, so will try and get out tonight to find how fast I can top the thing out at.

    Today, more sitting in front of a computer wanting to hurt it.

    Laters!

    Had a great night’s sleep so feeling quite cheery this morning. No doubt this will not last long as some muppet or other will ruin it with their idiocy. On the plus side there is one more day until I get a full ten days off. I’ll be heading back to Scotland to finish off the remaining 2 Stanes I have yet to complete.

    Pouring with rain this morning so once again I wimped out and brought the car in. I’ll compensate by finishing early and going to the gym for an hour or so.

    In the meantime it is time for tea.

    Later……

    Morning bumders

    Lazy day today. Car to clean, play tennis, visit the grandmother and then off to the cinema to see either Bourne or Ted. Also hoping to get out for a few hours on the roadbike later to get some miles in, or I could just play on the mountain bike... decisions.

    pen and keyboard duties today followed by a ride @ Cwmcarn with NM and Proutster which I'm rather looking forward to. Have to pick up the toy car from the garage and pay the bill which I'm not looking forward to.

    Mornin' lepers

    This morning started with coffee and bacons and will continue with packing, ready for an office move next week. Beats doin' propper work! This afternoon will be mostly spent monstering for my home apitnabll site for a corporate day the've got running. For free. Let me get this straight: I get a target rich environment, and someone else will pay for it? Yeah, I'll have me some of that, thanking you kindly! Booyah!

    Tonight, I may have a quick ride out on the crosser and give SWMBO's bike a once-over, ready for the weekend.

    Onwards! To packing! And paintball! .....aaaand maybe another coffee.

    All this talk of road bikes.... is this the new cake stop?

    Today we have a trip out to a wide format printer company to see about buying one, should be a good jolly, I hope they buy me lunch, I shall be sorely disappointed if not.
    A berm? were you expecting one?

    TF yesterday is over with.

    Not a lot of sleep last night thanks to the rest of the family then this morning was filled with a trip to the docs followed by fashioning my own crudcatcher in order to provide a stool sample. I wont bore you with the details.

    Now I've got about 20 minutes at work before I have to go off and do other stuff if I can stay awake for it. I'd like to think I'll get my bike out later for a play but I doubt it'll happen. I''l ride to work in the rain tomorrow then.

    Mornin, afternoon, whatever.
    Been recording dialog for cartoons all morning, now I'm enjoying my lunch break, before taking my car in for an MOT - which will no doubt be expensive.
