Off.

No bacons or bad things in house, still snow everywhere and missus is working so domestic duties beckon, followed by a trip to the cinema with multiple offspring.

Bah, meh, ffff etc.

    Not.

    Mornin' whippet snatchers and snatch whippers,

    As said, in work. Ironic term for it, really consdiering nothing here does. Work, that is - everything is kapput at the moment. It could be a slow old day...... With this in mind, I might head out early and hit the LBS to try and get some more appropriate tyres for the Anthem instead of sitting here 'till closing time. There's only so much thumb-twiddlin' I can cope with!

    Might also go and sneak some bacons too, because as the hair-care advert says 'I'm worth it'.

    Onwards! To more coffee! And........er.......stuff?

    Off, always!
    I'm worried, there is a strange burning ball in the sky casting bright light and a little warmth all around, is this the end of the world as we know it? Are we all going to die?
    pity those who don't drink, the way they feel when they wake is the best they will feel all day

    Not off and this is so unfair as, for once, the weather is quite decent and I should be able to continue my weekend biking for another few days but work always gets in the way.

    Back from a long weekend in and around Keswick. Lots of bike time only emphasised the lack of bike time recently and the fall off in fitness associated with it. Too many of the local pies and pints didn't exactly help but I'll need to do something about this slowly expanding lardiness. Lots of bacons consumed over the past week so back to porridge this morning. Its a step in the right direction but just seems wrong.

    The first tea has failed to kick in so time for some more.

    Later......

    Off all week. Bacon for breakfast. Splendid night ride last night... and more riding this week including another night ride on Wednesday. Just about to put the dry weather tyres on for the first time in nearly a year. Life is good.

    Morning Losers!
    I'm off today, last day mind. I'm glad the sun's come out, I've been off work for the last 10 days or so, and all it's done is snow. I PAY MY TAXES DAMNIT!
    Hopefully today, I'm going to sort the shed out, and then get a little ride in, more a 'getting to know the area' sort of ride. No bacons in the house, but I have sausages. Lots of them, and I'll be making a stew kind of thing when I can be bothered.

    Laters!

    Off, but back

    Got pretty badly sunburned by misjudging just how hot it was in Malta, but still had a great time and glad to get some warm. Definately will be heading back at some point.

    Had news today that the newhouse is pretty much all done and dusted just got paperwork to sign now and then move in about 6 weeks so this means i need to pull my finger out and sort packing up stuff.

    Back to wolvo today to sort some bits on the midlands residence, apparently my tennant says she has a damp patch in the front she needs me to sort, fortunately I have a large tool that should solve the problem.

    with this in mind, if the good lord spares us and the creeks don't rise I shall converse with you all later

    In work. As always. Blooming trains were late this morning. People are stupid. I do not want to have to deal with members of the public today. Really am not in the mood.

    Gym later. More running.

    Happy the clocks have changed as means I may actually get time to do things when it is light when I get home and not feel like some kind of nocturnal creature getting into the office when it is dark and leaving when it is dark.

    Afternoon all.

    Not. Been off since the thursday before last so its a bit of a shock. First day back since the clocks have gone forward however so at least when I leave work it will still be light, I would say sunny but that's pushing it.

    Evening mongettes,

    Work.. sux... free food awesome!.

    I don't want to hear about free food. On the plan as need to get ready for bridesmaid dress stuff. (Although I have cracked and am eating a bag of jelly babies at the moment...) And running because if I don't the Cardiff half will evade me for the third year running...

    And you don't get to demand pie.

    Haha!

    Men get to demand nothing.

    And I'm going to ride my bike on the weekend when I go home again (maybe, if I can be bothered to dismantle my bike to go in the car, thinking need a bigger car...) Teach my little bro how to do skids. Anything to avoid making wedding invites.

    Oh yes we do - whether we get it or not is another question. Although you may be giving us some clues about why you're single :wink:

    Not off - but boss was off with 'flu today so lots of people skived off early. I did too and thought something was wrong - then I realised it was the first time this year I'd left work in daylight :roll:
