    Morning,
    Canny ride in this morning. Went to have a shower and the only other cyclist in today has left his bike in the way. When moving it I noticed he's over tightened his headset when fitting one of them extender things to raise his bars up. Considered finding him and letting him know but then when I got out the shower I noticed his bib sorts were hanging up with skidmarks for all to see. Surely there's a rule against this.
    Anyways, day of work meh.

    Morning you massive bumders,

    Oodboo - in the interests of your colleagues I suggest you burn them. (bibs, not dirty arse man.)

    Today a man is coming to fix my oven. Apart from that, just getting myself ready for first day at new job on Monday. This 2 months holiday has flown by, not sure I'm ready to get back to the daily grind.

    I think burning colleagues is better than just burning bibs.
    I need a holiday, still grumpy. Went on our cycling pub crawl again last night and the pub at the top of Richmond Hill had run out of proper beer and only had fizzy stuff, maybe TLW had been down this way. Not impressed.

    Alright twunts,

    Hope Tlw1 doesn't come here for a 'drink' we'd have nothing left. Got six friends visiting and the bottom feeder is back in the Uk as her sister in law is very ill, days to do in fact!

    So i'm busy finding jobs for our chums. They have cleaned and painted around the pool, sorted one area of wilderness and built me a decent chicken coop, the self sufficient full english is on it's way.

    Nah, he should hang the skiddy bib shorts up in the office for all to see. It wouldn't happen again after that :)

    Evening Tards, I didnt even wake up till 9. A lazy morning followed, then another trip to the beach which was deserted. Perfect. Just digesting tonight's Chinese take away.

    Time for a reasonable drive, staying near Le Mans tonight, so your drink is safe bg13 (sorry about the sister in law)

    Right lets wake the family and then remind the wife to book better crossing times again

    Woken up to find that my holiday down to the south coast has been cancelled. Great. That's 2 holidays cancelled in 2 days. It's just not meant to be.
    To add to that, the exhaust on my motorbike is coming loose from the main manifold outlet, and I can't get a spanner in to tighten it, so I'll need to go back to the shop. What is it with me an motorbike exhausts!?

    All in all, a shoot start to the day, after a pretty rubbish day, and I know this one won't get any better. Whoop.

    Laters!

    I didn't realise it was your fault, what did you do to her?
    Hope the drive goes better than our drive to Italy did, 400 miles took 11 hours because of traffic. Have a good time.
    Very glad it's Fryday, off to the cafe for lots of dead pig at lunchtime. Then I just need to stay awake until 4:30. Ooh, it's cake Fryday too so even better.

    Morning,
    It's twenty to nine, I've been up for two and a half hours, the wife is in bed with a hangover and I'm in the kitchen hiding from the kids. Today is going to be fun.

    I'm rubbish at trying to lie in. I woke up at 6am, then 7 am, then 8am. Stupid internal body clock.

    Today I have a lazy morning doing a bit of tidying, maybe. Then off to Gigg Lane to watch Bury v Oldham. It's a local rivalry that Bury don't really care for :lol: Oldham want us to be really into the local derby, but our bitter rivals are Bolton. It's funny to watch.

    Anywho, laters!

    Been to Waitrose, appreciated the Sunday girls and supped free coffee. Got a bit of unpacking to do then headed out and saying hello to some relative of the wife who's over from Canada but I've never met before.

    At least I've got the next 2 days off 8)

    You bl00dy holidaymakers, come over here, drinking our beer and rum!

    Long day of rendering on our renovation house has left this crudder very tired and quite possibly a little emotional. A bit of pool time should help today! High 30s possible 40s expected of the weather today, best i wrap up warm.
