    Ah, crossed. That's good news. We had a dog killed by a car a couple of years ago.

    Excellent news. Cheap, hipster style tramp juice. Could do with a couple right now.

    I heroically cycled the twenty miles to work in the p!ssing rain this morning, like a hero.

    Good luck Max, hope you make a speedy recovery.

    Whisper in her ear that she wrote the car off. Say: Max 1 - Car 0.

  • Ah - for feck sake. That's rubbish news.

    Get well soon Max. I'm sure Goo will be along to write words soon. He's so much better at that kind of stuff than me.

    Life is rubbish sometime - Max gets hit by a car, Farage still hasn't caught ebolaids or been decapitated by Da'esh.

    It's all so unjust,

    Poor Max the cat, feed it some of that cat milk from the supermarket? I assume it's good for them and not milked from cats.

    I drove for about four hours to Llandegla, did a few hours work then drove all the way back again. I don't mind my line manager wasting his own time but wasting mine is frustrating, didn't even get to ride. Cx bike now readapted from the tourer so I have some nice rides planned

    Should have travelled 3/4 hr further and you could have come to the local with me and the rugrats :)

    Where abouts is the local? Probably worth it, I don't really rate Llandegla

    That is heroic. Good man. I cycled 10 miles home in the drizzle.

    I just googled that cider. Seems you can get a 5 litre keg for 12 quid from Morrisons. That's ridiculous. Had my second and final can now. It's quite a simple drink, not massively interesting but it packs a punch, especially coming off 2 weeks dry.

    Depends on the speed - if it took over 45 mins............

    Will do Boss.

    Just going to have a coffee and then prep my gels, isotonic drinks, club kit and see which of the gang are Zwifting - there was talk of doing the Cima Di Miale later.

    I'm cycling to work in an hour so I'll keep you updated on my progress.

    I rode a smidgen over 5 miles home in the rain. So Garry the heroic dispenses excellent advice and rides further than anyone else ever did outdoors in the rain. Not like the feeble MF and his virtual Playstation turbo trainer.
    Matthew, don't forget to take the bike off the trainer and switch from Zwift to Strava before riding to work. Unless you're working from home in which case you could commuter race from the comfort of your own shed. Hmmm, bit difficult to put a plaster on someone remotely I should think. Not sure MF should work from home.
  • Bizarrely I walked into work today and a dude asked me a plaster. I said that I had some in my other office and would go and get one.

    No dramas he sad and taped up the gushing wound with some green sniper tape.

    Love it.

    Looks like useful stuff, certainly better than brown packing tape if used in the place of a plaster.
  • Brilliant stuff - sticks to anything and will not get washed/brushed off.

    You can also write all over it.

    Expensive if you have to pay for it but top stuff.
