Where are you all? Don't tell me everybody's working. I suppose I should be too, although apathy is strong and motivation is weak.
Maybe more tea will help.

    I was on a train sleeping my way to London.

    Today i am looking at the window drinking alot of coffee hoping the day will cruise by.

    much fun had a Penhydd trail yesterday on the classic single track parts which are way way way better than the new bike parky bits, they made some big errors when rebuiling bits of that trail.

    morning all,

    may go for a short ride later on the borrowed hardtail to get the legs spinning.

    Cheers. It's hard work.

    Er relatively new, about 2-3 months - dont know why the box is still here, laziness I guess. Got my old 2013 rev rlt replaced on warranty but they sent me the 2014 rev rct3 with cool black stanchions. Goes well with the stealth

    Slightly soggy pedal in today but no big deal. Was massively cheered up by a call from the boss telling me I'd got a pay rise and a decent bonus. So have gone and booked the summer hols :)

    About as shite a day as you can imagine.......

    Friday I started cold symptoms, felt rough Saturday, Sunday better until midday when it started to go downhill, Monday off to the doctors and rushed straight to A&E with a severe chest infection, was kept in overnight as a precaution, by this morning it was reclassified as pneumonia and the IV antibiotics not touching it, today I hit 104 (40) and struggling for breath with a blood Oxygen level keep dropping below 90 (85 can put you out)......still showing no sign of improvement and they are talking about possible legionnaires!

    Be better than me for gods sake!

    Thanks for all the good wishes, I'm sure it will pan out in time, it's just a bit scary right now. They've put me on oxygen now so at least I'm not wearing myself out trying to breath. The iPad and banter on here is keeping me sane so thanks to you all.

    Rookie, could you not just laze around in bed like Pesky without being such a drama queen?
    Obviously if you die to death I will feel bad about drunk posting so please don't, even if only to ease my conscience.

    I hope you realise that if the reaper comes calling I now have my first planned haunting victim.........what's in a bottle won't be the only spirits you'll need to worry about!
