Winning Wednesday

Flâneur

No idea why it is winning.

Slow drive to work today, uber tired. Ps am I the only one who doesn't venture over to the crud section of this forum?

Several of us are Crudders first and foremost much to the dislike of brother Piña

I don't think today will involve win here either :roll: I thought things couldn't get worse than tendering student accommodation until a job arrived yesterday which I looked at over two years ago which fucked my head up then so I'm sure it's going to again, I think I might let my colleague price that one and I'll take the student flats

You just want to visit the site of student flats

well its been a really exciting day here at mikey towers. Recycling day always gives me such a thrill. Sorting out the plastics, tins, glass, newspaper and cardboard into those nice coloured bags and placing them carefully on the front lawn for those nice people to take away. And then there are the non recyclables as well for the proper bin men. Then the rabbits need to be put in their run and the rabbit hutch cleaned out and disinfected. And put out for the bin men. And all this before it starts raining... Missus off to work, son still in bed and nowt planned for the rest of the day. might go to the supermarket and get all the stuff starting with W. or i might not. Or might play Elite Dangerous all day and see if I can raise another 100k for that Cobra mark III

Mikey23

and there should be another E in recycleables

Mikey23

or should there?

Need any help?

Early meeting in Birmingham, so left home at 5.30 and despite being here for over 2.5 hrs, it still hasn't happened yet :evil:

Still have man flu, but at least I can use the excuse not to make a start on the summerhouse as it's bouncing it down again until later!!

Looks like another day in with my 2yr old watching Sarah & Duck (over and over, again :roll: )

Depends if you like it mucky.
It's a winning Wednesday because I rode in and I'm going to bunk off early and then I'm off to the boozer. Hopefully the lovely young bar maid from last week will be there. Service was excellent and attentive.
Onwards and upwards...

Only one vodka last night and an early night means I'm feeling good today. The accident with the wall in Italy is healing, arm is scabbing over nicely but the knuckles keep cracking as I use my hand and is still quite painfull.
Quotes-a-hoy today followed by some accounting.

Raining again but heading out on bicycle to pick up a Landy before packing kit and being sent away fow two weeks. Hope it stops raining at some point..........

What happened there? Did I miss a good tale? Heal fast.

Just went over to the crud side, can't say I like it over there full of odd balls who cover their faces and wear pads

I think they like you, after all you got the traditional greeting.

Yep, wonder if there is a student Union in stoke

I went in there once, they were very particular about who they would let in, they barred Robbie Williams

You mean you've been a student all this time and you haven't looked? Now you are no longer a student you take an interest. :shock: Where's the facepalm emoticon?

I've told them you own a strip joint - it may help

I've told them you know GT's-mum - that won't help.

2nd hairpin of the holiday descending from the villa to Lake como, brand new brake blocks and a bit of bravado. I ran out of road and clipped a rough granite wall with my right arm and knuckles, trashed a pair of brand new gloves and tore the sleeve of my favorite jersey. Bike was OK though.



More pics in the touring section.

Well that's alright then.

Edit: Just looked at the other picture, very nice I'm dead jealous. I love the lakes and mountains, you can guess where I come from originally. I might be buying an old bike in Verona, if I do I'll leave it there until I next visit before bringing it back.

Good for them I say - they have standards.

Currently I am in the soft play area with thing one and thing two. Poor, poor selection of MILFS

Are we combining the tour of the student bars and the bus load of drunken loons City invasion challenge thingy?

arran77

Soft play areas are my worst nightmare, full of screaming brats and the places always stink because of all the bare feet :shock:

Count me in for this - morning plan changed slightly to chucking bike down the, smashing up helmet, big chunk out of and subsequent haematoma L hip, chuck out of elbow, top gloves and top.

Worst thing was having to drink instant coffee to try and warm up afterwards in cold, manly, smelly dismal troop office.

Bollox.
