Morning Losers!
Still really windy here this morning, though not as bad as last night thankfully.
Today I am making a long trip down to Gloucester, need to be there for 11:30, so setting off in 10 minutes and no idea if that's overkill or not. Still, I think my voice is back in order, at least enough for today.
This evening I have the Fire Brigade coming round to look at the smoke detectors or something, so that's kind of put a downer on my 'relaxing' day off.
Laters!

It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Morning Ladies,
Yes it was windy here in Herts last night when I went out for a ride, but fairly quiet this morning.
Office time now and off to London later on today - don't like it, as I wanted to catch up with the paperwork !!
Went to the gym this morning after a week-break - it was hard...
Have a nice day chaps,

Morning muck munchers,
Warm, moist and a little bit blowy down here. Slow wobble in to work as I feel utterly knackered, apparently I hit the snooze button on the alarm without waking up. Well, that's what the EPO told me, I have no recollection of this. Should be a boring day in work today. The owners of the company are over from the US so I have to pretend I'm working which is really dull. So long as I'm not snoring I'm sure it will be fine.
Bought a bike for the daughter at the weekend, then the Mrs decided she might like one too. Unfortunately my reply of "Does that mean I can buy one too?" didn't wash. Apparently I already have too many bikes.
Tea has been delivered and someone has also delivered a little cake onto my desk. Not a bad start then.0 -
Morning eeennnggglleeeeeeeeeeeeessshhhhhh ppeeeeeeeeeeeeeegggssssss!
Nothing interesting weather wise from here as the sun is out as per normal!
Off to the local town to wander aimlessly around the market while the ladies but useless tat, later is more internal combustion engine garden implement based hacking of plants and weeds that look far to settled.

Good Morning peasants!
At work but without much to do so today's going to be slow.
Rear shock is still with Mojo, it's been a week and I can feel myself getting withdrawal symptoms. I long for the feeling of mud splashing up my back =(<hr noshade size="1"><font face="Book Antiqua"><b><font color="black">Crash, </font id="black"><font color="blue">get up. </font id="blue"><font color="black"> Crash, </font id="black"><font color="blue">get up. </font id="blue"><font color="black"> Crash, </font id="black"><font color="blue">get up. </font id="blue"><font color="black"> Crash, stay down. </font id="black"><font color="red"> Embrase pain.</font id="red"></b></font id="Book Antiqua">

Morning, burglars of turds.
Postponed a meeting in Bristol this morning as Useless Manager wanted a meeting with me in Newport. The twonk has now cancelled it but the postponed meeting is still on at 4.00pm in Bristol and can't be brought forward. I can't wait for the hour long queue at the tolls on the Severn Bridge when I come back to The Promised Land this evening.Unfortunately my reply of "Does that mean I can buy one too?" didn't wash. Apparently I already have too many bikes.
Surely you explained the N+1 rule to her?“Life has been unfaithful
And it all promised so so much”

Not helped by the fact that the bloke that worked in the shop only had 1 bike as that was all his wife would let him. That should be a sackable offence.0 -

Got a job as a driver/chalet host/ski guide, and other chalet related tasks that no one else fancies! Just really fancied a season in a ski resort, mrs 13 will be the other side of the country but free to visit/ski whenever she fancies. I'll get to ski most days but will have the other jobs to keep on top of!Loving life in rural SW France
