Mehning Losers!

I keep waking up around 3am which is really starting to pi$$ me off. It's only when I'm here in Leeds though hmmm.

Quite a straightforward day today. Nothing exciting happening that I know of. I have my judo lesson later, so that's something to look forward to.

I need more sleeps!

Laters!

    Bonjour, ca va?

    Spending the day at Marston's in Burton doing a training course through work, learning stuff I have been doing for 10 years. I feel it will be a day of my life wasted.

    On a brighter note, the new build is taking shape now I have the frame, forks, wheel and a few other bits sorted. I think a deore crankset and brakes may be in order.

    Au revoir

    Who the fark are you?

    Welcome back!

    Mornin' snowballers,

    I have not got a clue what the day ahead will hold, but I have a feeling it may involve learning to operate the tech that my colleague uses, seeing as he's b****ring off to pastures new in a fortnight. It'll be a steep learning curve! Especially as I've got 5 days to learn it in. Oooooo boy! Nowt like a challenge.....

    M'eh, f**k it. What's the worst that could happen?

    Onwards! To caffiene! And industrial mecha!

  • Morning all,

    My insurance payment for my Cotic that got nicked should be coming through in the next few days. Shame I won't be spending the cash on another bike as I have more pressing needs for the cash. Off to the docs in a minute for my not smoking check up, it is now 6 weeks without fags so I am happy!

    Another Monday rolls around. Not sure what this week has in store but as it is a Monday and the first of the month then there should be plenty to keep me gainfully employed.

    Spent the weekend cleaning and servicing the bikes. I’m trying out a dry PTFE chain lube to see if it is any good. Hopefully it will reduce the amount of crap that collects in the cassette.

    Now off to find offerings from cake making minion.

    Later……
  • What a marvellous Monday it is too!

    Booked a week's snowboarding last night for Christmas, so just spending the day wandering around with a smile plastered across my face!

    If I can get my 2 months back pay from the summer, it will be even better!

    Have fun folks!

    Yes its Monday but I'm off drinking so its fine.

    Good weekend too, ate well and the opera was divine

    This is all I shall write until I'm more drunk and abusive.

    Oh just seen a right cuntflap of a conductor on this train that started on a woman because she had the wrong ticket, she explained that her train had been canceled and shed been sent on this
    but he for array with her and ripped up her ticket in front of her and told her to calm her attitude. Really people like that give our industry such a bad name. I'm not a grass but I think this situation may require it.

    Afternoon Wasters,

    Still keep waking up at stupid o'clock even with no owrk to be bothered about - sick of being tired all the time. wonder if a big dose of 'Night Nurse' type stuff would help? Total fail today - tried to post this morning and it didn't happen - doh. Have been out in the pi$$ing rain to help Mrs 666 with a few things, then as it's still 'orrible here might go swimming later. Bikes tomorrow if it clears up...

    Things of note over the weekend - sleep deprivation makes me mardy. TFN can't cope with 9 hours of drinking without being very ill the next day. Had a close to relationship ending discussion. He bought an Orange 5 frame. (the two are not related but I think he should be on notice now for this abysmal lack of originality.)
    This week will generally be dull with a high chance of boredom

    Afternoon bumders

    Meh uni stuff today. Quiet week due to practical exams, thankfully I've not got mine until Friday so plenty of time to practise what I need to. Bikes this evening so that's something to look forward to.

    Hard to cope with when a hunky potential suitor has a sexy gt import bike I know ;)

    Evening scuttling types

    Had a lovely night with old friend, we've laughed, we've drunk to a good point and then the bars have closed to all but students, but we've left chipper. The situation earlier was refolded after a Gazlar intervention to stop the young girl getting chucked off. I had words with the cuntwand conductor and he wouldn't budge purge than he agreed to charge the young girl the extra, but the woman I know in complaints agreed that she would be refunded that money.

    So all in all a good day

    Wishing you all a happy tomorrow my biking
