Mehning Losers!

Well, having got up and emptied the dishwasher of everything that isn't mine, I'm in a thoroughly bad mood. That mixed with a cold and a bad nights sleep means today is not going to be a good one.
Back to work today. Only had 2 days off, so let's see what blew up and who died.

Laters!

    Morning bumders

    We've got proper internet at the house finally, and TV too. Winner. Today is uni meh, lots of learning about parasites, again. Fun times. Aside from that I remembered yesterday about several deadlines I have coming up that I've done nothing about yet. Think this week will be a busy one.

    I'm just getting over a bout of man flu, hopefully when it's cleared I'll be able to get out properly on the mountain bike around this place, until now I've either just been using the road bike or feeling too crap to ride. Need to get out properly and find some decent trails, the south must have some decent trails right?!?

    Late start this morning as I'm heading off for a training course for our new machine. Its off-site and apperently the course starts with coffee and pastries. Very civilised!

    Onwards! To caffiene! And a cinnamon swirl!

    morning ladies,

    still on holiday, woke up and looking out over Plymouth harbour, quite relaxing! Mummy 13 should have bacons on in the next few minutes then its the what are we doing today meeting!
    Options are, wander around plymouth and visit a Ho' or maybe do some national trust visit (weather dependant i s'pose!)

    Anyhoo hope you all enjoy your day at work/uni etc.

    A good weekend was had at the parents house with large cooked breakfasts and roast dinners. Bacons same so much tastier when you're not doing the cooking / washing up.

    Another Monday morning rolls around and, as yet, I have no feeling of CBA. Now this is unusual for me on a Monday. I'm sure things will sort themselves out in due course.

    Tea is ready.

    Later......

    I only had 2 days off and feel exactly the same! I really don't like my job.

    I do often wonder what it would be like to have a job where I truely enjoyed going to work. I've heard some people say it, but I just can't believe it!

    Morning Scuttlers

    Manning the phones this morning to Superstar/Wiggle/Superstar possibly after yesterdays riding. Managed to get very sideways and ping a large rock off my rim, which has put a terminal dent in the rim and a small tear in my tyrewall. Add to that my dropper turning itself into a suspension post then yesterdays ride was a bit of fail. It wouldnt be so bad if it wasn't just the Verderers at FOD.

    Popping back to Wolves later on today before gtting my arris in gear to go back to work tommorrow, ah well 3 weeks to go until i'm off again, even I can cope with that.....I think
    Mountain biking is like sex.......more fun when someone else is getting hurt

  • Morning homos.

    Knees are a little sore after my road ride yeasterday. I'm going to assume it's a good thing though and carry on as normal.
    Got a shorter ride planned for tonight.

    Until then, I get to spend the day justifying my forecasts to picky regional managers who can't count past 10 without taking their socks off.

    it's not the job really, my job is quite enjoyable sometimes. it's just that i'm working for someone else, conforming to there BS routines and regulations and making them rich :lol:

    i do have my own business aswell that's still in it's infancy really, but fingers crossed it'll start making money soon and i can at least go freelance and pick and choose when i work :D

    Afternoon Missing Links,

    Been out all day on school related stuff again :roll: went to the last of the open days of the schools touting for our kids place, then on the way out found out they'd already locked the gate we came in by - cue losts of faffing around trying to get let out in the pi$$ing rain :evil:

    Now feeling lazy but have 3 different interviews to prep for over the next 3 days so better get my ar$e in gear!

    Make sure you have a job first, mentally hard to find work there, i was traveling from Newquay to Helston every day for work then working in the central at night to just pay the bills.
    As for riding, i was more skate and surf oriantated when i was living there, so not sure, but plenty of hills, not much woodage though. One of my mates lived in Bodmin and rode with the Cornawll freeriders so there must be something there?

    Anyway Morning.
