You just want to visit the site of student flats

Site visit to the students union 8)

Need any help?

Sounds like a dangerous combination, you, cheap booze and students

Sounds like fun to me, can I come?

Yep, wonder if there is a student Union in stoke

Yup there is - I was banned from it (along with 3 friends) in 1993. We only went the once .........

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

I thought they were quite polite

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

Arran, looks like you have some business interests - cycled past one of those little hotels in London made from a converted town house with a suspiciously familiar address: What a coincidence...

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

Bollox.

D'oh!

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.

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

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.

Have you ever done anything that didn't result in injury?

I can imagine you in battle

"Charge!!"

"Man down, man down. MEDIC!"
Medic arrives.
Medic "Where does it hurt son?"
Matthewfalle "My ribs, I think there broken."
Medic "Gunshot?"
Matthewfalle "Tripped over my shoelace, bollox."

I like Problem is, I'm the medic, so it goes along the lines of:

Me: aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgggghhh man down! Medic!
Me: are you alright?
Me: no. Snagged my toe nail getting my slippers on.
Me: ooooooooooh - that's serious. Better have 6 weeks off watching Nina and looking at pictures of Jo Wylie
Me: oh, alright then. You're the medical man.
Me: too darn right I am. And don't you forget that.
Me: sorry. Espresso?
Me: don't mind if I do, ta muchly. Jaffa cake? Food of champions you know ......

Thank you for the sentiment but it's ok - it's the winter bike with 105 so no great loss.

Would Seano get a discount on an hourly hire rate?

The problem is the munters that frequent the place with their coke and chips diet. They leave a 3/4 of the food lying around and my little one's think they can go and eat it. They never tidy up after themselves and they can't read the label on the bin that says 'NO NAPPIES, USE THE SANITARY ONE PROVIDED'.
I get screwy looks 'cos I order fruit and I don't buy 'Fruit shooters'. I have no frickin idea how they manage when their kids are on a mixture of fat, sugary pop and sweets. The fat guy behind the counter said that he hadn't much fruit today, do they actually eat bananas?!? I was going to tell him that I was born in the jungles of darkest Africa and my monkeys are well trained - they are almost tame but I think that would have made his brain explode.

You got a positively warm reception sawotsit. I posted a picture of Jens Voigt with the title - 'This is god'.

It got deleted.

Only because God is a mountain biker and was angered by your false idol.

Flâneur

God is 6 foot leggy with good boobs. Jensie is a demi god (or a semi if you are that way inclined)
