'ning

at the gatwick hilton, where the internet works very well, head off to check-in soon, it's holiday time :)

could do with warm sunny weather for a couple of weeks, as my plan is simple:

ride in the morning, bask in the afternoon, repeat

hope you all have lovely time and no one falls off their bike
my bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny

    meh

    May have enjoyed the ale too much last night, the wife woke me up at 5.30 with glee saying 'I thought you were taking it easy last night'

    today is working from home mixed with the school run, then off to sunny Wales later to catch up with the current wife who is walking up Snowdon

    Enjoy the hols, no evening or night plans? Sounds tame.

    Wife sounds like a keeper TLW, I mean who doesn't want to be woken at 5:30 by someone who is gleeful.

    Got up at 5.45 for a ride, felt like I needed another four hours in bed so got back in.

    Meh, I dont think I'll make it home in two minutes. Besides which tea will be delivered in (now) 16 minutes so I think I'll stay here.

    May try to convince the boss that letting me out for a bit in the sun this afternoon will be good for morale.

    Tell him you have a Chronic Vitamin D deficiency and that keeping you indoors is discriminatory.

    Tell her that she really could do with some retail therapy and then furnish her with a tenner as it goes along way in Barnardo's.

    I took her to a charity shop for the blind the other day.

    These clothes are awful, she said.

    Doesn't matter if you cant see them...

    The word 'wife' should give you a clue as to her keeper status :wink:

    On the way home now having left the minions to hold the fort. Unfortunately more work needed this afternoon.

    In the meantime should wait for more mysterious posts from SG who is just gagging for one of us to ask him where is :)

    you see, once you have a wife the next step is to lose her, how and in what fashion is your choice, I suggest contacting a divorce lawyer first though.

    We care when Sun G went?

    House sale all sorted and so MTB can be bought finally, feel like a child at Christmas, I may even make a counter for the days I wait, some of it just to bait in the canyon crowd

    Then we'll not bother. He's just spent time in Dubai shirking anyway.

    22nd and 23rd, but doubt that will change the end result for you.

    Glorious day out in the sun, if a tad windy. 27 miles of tow paths and a few pubs. Supposed to be going to a beer festival but might fall asleep on the couch and save myself for tomorrow.

    You will not ever fully realise the depths of emotional blackmail of a woman.

    True, but you have to get your priorities right :)
