So why did Stevo not write the BR tax summary?

Anyway a full day dealing with the plebs of this provincial market town. Plus side just sorted out a trip to Barcelona and Vienna

    Decided to have a day off from the 6am alarm call today and felt worse for it. Went outside to put stuff in the bin and was glad I didn't go out for a pedal. Good god it was cold, dry but very cold.

    Got general office busying to do today and then drop the boy off at football training tonight and will go for a run whilst waiting for him.

    Working from home again today. Daughter's not been doing very well this week so spending some time here so I can look after her a bit more and hopefully see what's going on. Went back to the GP yesterday as we're getting nowhere with the hospital, have been refered up to town to the neurology department at a famous kids hospital.

    Bacon & Cabbage
    Mash
    Mash & cabbage
    Cabbage and Cabbage
    Black pudding
    Fried bread
    Bread
    Bread, milk & sugar
    Boiled pigs trotters
    Fry up

    I gave you most of the good news yesterday - beer, cider, spirits and fuel duty frozen, so drive to the pub and celebrate. And as an added bonus after much lobbying by me, they're cutting the Severn Bridge tolls by 50% - so more downhilling is on the cards :)

    Spent some of the last day checking the fine print as most of the crap that might hit us from a company point of view doesn't get mentioned in the speech.

    Heading to UAT on a couple of projects, starting to feel the pain with staff and their holidays, budget was goood for now but HMG needs to ensure a climate conducive to small businesses otherwise Boris the Idiot will turn more heads with his incoherent jingoistic babble.

    The start today seems so far away, a fasted zone two ride......

    Well traffic put a stop to a run so I'm back at the football ground waiting about for training to end.

    Definitely going to ride tomorrow come shine or shine as the weather is looking good!

    It was warmer in Scotchland today than here in Norfolk, a lot warmer according to the forecast. It's outrageous and not how this union should work. I'm writing to my MP demanding he do something about it.

    Seano: you should have known there was it was Narden Iyrlan' - there was no mention of Concorde or MD 20/20. Ask your Dad about an (in)famous homebrew stout called the 'Wrastler'. It's obvious you need an education.

    Back tot the plot:

    Electronic Omron 163537384 unit was okay, Have now dismantled the pressure switches and will send then to Cornwall to be "re-set". I think those webbed finger boys are 'avin a laugh.

    Sun, sun, sun today. Bank Manageress the morra. Pedal in afternoon and then noise, bouncy castle and a toots birthday party... MILF watch time :D

    Before you sell all your equipment can any of it be used for mining? We need high pressure water jets, heavy duty shaker conveyor belt, cast iron ripples to catch the gold and a sluise box. We also need a digger and I loader, but you can buy them with proceeds from the sale of the factory.


    I know where the gold is and how to get it gawd dang it.

    We'll need to build a mining town out of wood with stables, a saloon, a hardware store, a hotel, some out building sh1t houses and a brothel. We'll also need a Sheriff. Perhaps even one of a particular ethnic descent called Bart...

    I'm glad you didn't forget the brothel. We need to make sure we get the angle of our ripples right, otherwise they'll pack up with mud and we'll be washing all our gold down the creek. I think we should dig out the pay streak first, then go for bedrock where the big nuggets are. The sheriff is a Ni! :shock:

    ...DONG.

    At some time in the future, i'm going to ride into town on a horse wearing a poncho whilst smoking cigars...

    Which reminds me, I forgot the Gun Shop, Sheriff's office (with cells), the barbers and the funeral directors.

    You got the job - you can run the saloon. You'll have to practice sliding a Bourbon bottle and a shot glass at the right speed, without them falling over down the bar.
