Morning, working at 5am today, weather sounds grim outside too, wind and rain all night! Better look out the waterproofs..

Oh well will be finished by lunchtime, but might be in bed again shortly after!

Take it easy!

    Morning Losers!

    One of my minions has phoned in sick. Barsteward. I've been sorting out cover since 7am, think I'm sorted now though.

    Had to catch public transport to Bury last night, and I have to say it worked out well. As I arrived at the train station, the train pulled up and I got on, as I arrived in Manchester, the tram pulled up so I got on. It went far better than I thought it would.

    Today I'm finding out the fate of the car. Hopefully it's affordable.

    Football this afternoon then a quiz in the evening with mates. Should be fun.

    Laters!

    Crudnuggets...

    Breakfast done and considering which bike to take for a wee forest lane ride (New FS or old HT?) while drinking a bucket of tea. Choices, choices
    And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made.

    Speaking of crudnuggets, I've just the lovely job of removing some from the toilet.

    Taking my boys out today, not an easy job for one man but I'll give it a go. I may lose my mind.

    Morning all,
    Off out to look at doors today, deep joy. Then the EPO is having a haircut, must remember to notice and compliment her. Tonight will consist of the wife moaning that she hates her haircut. Other than that, tinkering and maybe a ride to a pub.

    The garage are unsure of what's wrong with it. They've got a bloke from Vauxhall coming next week to have a look, so I'm back to the trains on Sunday :roll: Should have brought the bike!

    So, today I'm looking at cars online.

    Laters!

    Afternoon Gits,

    Sat in the frozen North sorting out stuff for aged parentals after a 5 hour slug up the M1. Bit of a nightmare so off to Tesco soon to stock up on supplies - and booze. Might have chicken parmo for dinner as I'm working up an appetite doing loads of jobs.

    Evening. Car boot this morning (seriously, waking up at 7 on a Saturday? It's not right), cold but at least I made a bit of money and got rid of some stuff (I now have room for the bikes so they aren't directly in the way). Cut down and disposed of another couple of trees this afternoon, so had a couple of beers guilt free.

    Maybe out on the bikes tomorrow, possibly Cannock if the weather is good enough, possibly somewhere closer to home if not. Then to Leamington to pick up an eBay purchase, and then it will be time to start thinking about going back to ruddy work again.
