Morning Losers!

Bleurgh, it's not particularly nice weather today, hot and muggy.

Made a loaf of bread last night, not my finest, but still delicious. I should make more really.

More boring work today. This won't be helped by the fact I'm knackered. I really need a good nights sleep. I fell asleep on the bus home yesterday a few times :?

Anywho, tea and frosties!

Laters!

    Mornin' window lickers

    A good night sleep was had, if interupted by nobends who have decided we must all enjoy their taste in s**t music so decide to cruise down urban streets at 1am with the volume cranked up to max. There will be blood. And in this heat - it's going to stink the place up.

    Anyhoo, another busy work day ahead, with all that doumentation still looming (everytime I start I get pulled away to do something else). There may be bacons later too, because I'm worth it. There will definately be coffee!

    Onwards! To caffiene! And Safe Systems of Work!

    Mornin

    cider aided sleep = refreshed this morning. Bl00dy hot on the ride home last night, arrived home bright red to find the father in law here but more importantly, our new kitchen doors - they bi-folding and have transformed the kitchen - but would have still preferred to buy a decent car :)

    Today is working from home with conference calls and board packs - living the dream. Later is something that hopefully doesn't involve drink

    Work. It's too hot. I didn't go for a run last night as the heat made me feel like I was melting on the way home. So tonight I am intending to go to the gym to bask in air conditioned luxury.

    Sounds like a good mix.

    Afternoon mongs!

    The recent severe case of meh which resulted in me not bothering to go near a bike for ages seems to have passed, although my skillz seem to have suffered and I am exhausted by more than a couple of hours riding.

    Work's still a pain but not as bad as it has been.
    Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

    Yes you! Chase anything with a pulse. I saw you looking at the lady on the Trek on Saturday. :lol:

    Only after you pointed her out! Then i was just trying to figure how the medical team could possibly remove the saddle from the cavern that was her arse crack.... :shock:

    I still maintain she required some kind of basket/support mechanism to carry her extremely large stomach and stop it hanging down.

    That would be a crane as im not sure the bike could support all that weight solo for long.

    Slow day of learning how to make stuff out of glass and carbon fibre, made me very sleepy! Not helped by the thoroughly awesome Kings of Leon gig at the LG Arena last night! Which was awesome and then some! Have i told you it was awesome!

    Onwards to foods and sleeeeeeeeep!

    And no, I won't. You're not my type.

    Beat me to it Clank, bravo.

    Went to bed very early last night and had a lovely long sleep. I'm still bloody knackered though, but that might be to do with the general poor diet and lack of sleep for the last week or so.
    Usual fun and games today, and now I'm eating Tunnocks teacakes* while thinking about cleaning the 9.8

    *other generic teacakes are available, but they're disappointing at best.

    Evening bumders

    Lazy day of vet meh today, managed to get 2 hours off at lunch and slack off an hour early this evening. Been out to pick up my new cranks from the post office courtesy of VWbum. Just need some forks, a stem, saddle and some new bearings for my wheels I think. Then it's build time.

    Picky ba$tard isn't he.

    Evening Mongs,

    Worked from home this morning while the BT bloke installed my new 'super fast broadband'. At least it doesn't seem terminally slow any more. But then had to go into the office to deal with useless minions who were ferking things up and getting me in the sh1t. Had a pint on the way out the office to make up for it and managed much perving at the scantily clad burds standing outside the pub.
