Morning.

Grim old start to the week out there :shock:

Number one littley is off school sick so I'm just waiting for Mrs 77 to return from taking number two littley to school so I can get off to work, needless to say I'm in no hurry, I could watch Toby's Travelling Circus all day :lol:

Work should be quiet with no hospitals to colour in this week so I think I shall mainly drink tea :mrgreen:

    Good moaning folks,
    Hmmm, not seen Toby's Travelling Circus. Is it worth recording then?
    What a beautiful morning, not. Bit of a blowy wobble in to work this morning. But nowhere near as wobbly as the bloke trying to ride on a busy urban dual carriageway on tri bars. That didn't look like such a good idea to me.
    Not much happening at work today, might get a bit more of my catalogue writing done this week.

    When you have a 4 and 6 year old your mind gets a bit numbed with the stuff they have on TV so it's actually probably not very good :lol:

    When mine were that age I'd find myself pedalling to work with some theme tune from CBeebies stuck in my head.

    Damn you 68, I've now got that wretched theme tune from 'Balamory' stuck in my head.

    Wet an miserable today, glad I'm not on the bike 'till tomorrow. Not a lot to report as it's work and it's Monday.

    If we see on the news that a small boy went missing in Portugal, last seen riding his S-Works bike by the sea, we'll know where to tell the police to look :wink:

    64 64 64 zoo lane, 64 64 64 zoo lane... My little one's are still at that stage but they love the

    Ommbleboo tombleboos sit on the floor...here is my nose...that's how it goes.

    Time to exorcise those tunes

    Manky Monday? nah, it was bootiful up here (again) - have some low pressure and plenty of rain, ha ha.

    Mashed today after I mashed myself out on a bike ride when the OH came back from work early yesterday. Started to stomp proper right at the beginning of winter :roll:

    How are the foundations for the T47 temple of Swiss bikes and German bubblecars going? Are there going to be Bishops and Nuns on top?

    Worked a solid 12 hours, wanted to cry when the to do list by days end wasn't cleared, manned up went home, managed to dodge a speed camera, grabbed a bourbon then watched Made in Chelsea.

    still super tired after 2 days of climbing all weekend

    You were far too truthful about the end date of your course. Should have told her that 'phase 2' of your MBA involved extensive field trips to London, Amsterdam, Las Vegas and Bangkok :P

    Maybe you need to 'fail' the course and the required follow ups in order to pass/secure your wife's financial future are the field trips :wink:

    Oooh yes, I could ship a bus load of loons down there. We could drink lots of tinnies on the bus and storm out with baseball bats and knuckle dusters looking very ominous and purposeful. I have no idea what they'll actually do once they get off the bus - it would be a bit like an episode of Banana Splitz and it may take some time rounding them up.
