Morning Losers!

Finally bought my season ticket last night. Well, almost. I left work early, went home and got the paperword, then got stuck because of an accident on the M62. Luckily motorbikes are at the advantage here, so I got through it. The club was just closing up, so they couldn't take my payment, but they have my details and they'll do it first thing this morning 8) a minute later and I'd have missed it!

Today, more moving out of the office at work. It's taking over a lot of other things I'd rather (not) be doing. Then back over to Bury for a meeting tonight. Fun.

Laters!

    Today will be full of hope and dreams but unfortunately probably end with dissapointment - but enough about the football.

    Work will be the same, just without the hopes and dreams

    Mornin' window lickers

    Yesterday, I rediscovered why they called the company 'Hope'. If you have one of their seat clamps (or other cam-action device), it's only wishfull intention that holds your saddle up. That and your rear light bracket.

    Today I shall be slaving away trying to get a customer report finished, before they start getting antsy that it's a tad late. At just over 300 pages, it is three times bigger than they were expecting. They can live with it being a week overdue (hey, and it was there scope creep). After this, I shall be shopping for an alternative seat clamp!

    In the meantime, there shall be coffee!

    Onwards! To literary masterpeices! And caffiene!

    Morning dingleberries,
    Feeling a tad hungover today, maybe I should drink more. Son pulled a hamstring yesterday at rugby training, trying to stop him from overdoing it today is proving somewhat difficult. Bloody teenagers thinking they know everything, I was never like that.
    Clank, try a Thompson clamp. I suffered a slipping shaft on my Kinesis, snapped a clamp bolt trying to stop it. Changed the clamp and now I have no slippage of my shaft and I don't need to clamp it very tightly at all.
