Morning Losers!

I need sleep. A lot.

Got home from work last night to find that the broadband and TV had gone down. This did not put me in a good mood.

I just have to get through today, and then I have to drive to Bury for some work, but then sleep. Oh sweet, blesséd sleep!

Laters!

    Morning bitches

    I accepted a job at the uni yesterday for next year. I also went out on the bike yesterday evening and smashed out an hour of power, as such my legs are censored this morning and I don't want to get out of bed. Potentially my last day of work as a student today too, depending on whether or not there's anything interesting booked in to do tomorrow, this means pub is on the cards this evening :D

    Awesome news! Working at uni's definitely has its perks, so enjoy it. Just think, if you're an 'Angry Bird' as a student, you're going to be an 'Irate Bird' when you start working! Or maybe you'll just become a Grumpy Bird like the rest of us

    Well done employed bird. If the uni have employed you it's either because you're so good they want to keep you or so bad they know you'd be virtually unemployable in the real world.
    Day off today, so all is good. Waiting for the lad to get back from the party he went to last night then family outing.

    The weekend will see packing stuff neatly away, tv, foods, drinks and some form of outdoor activity.

    Morning tards.

    Had the week off so far. I intended to lay the patio that I've had for a year this week but so far I've not got round to it (waiting for a quote as I'm feeling lazy and can't be bothered levelling and compacting the clay soil I have).

    Today involves attempting to fix the leaky tubeless setup on my rear wheel and a trip to the tip.

    Day off today, rode all morning, trails in great condition, and then ate cake and drank tea all afternoon. Does life get better??

    Cheers guys, looking forward to the job, should be fun, plus the idea of having money is rather exciting. I sense a new bike will be purchased this summer...
