    On train, not hot yet but tonight's return trip will be sweaty. More HR imitiatives bollox to deal with today, it will be hard to disguise my indifference and contempt.

    Morning
    MTB to work, hoping for a hot dusty ride later. Need some practice as I've just entered a race on Saturday.
    Certainly is warm and humid out there today. The office aircon wasn't on when I got in so that's been sorted, just waiting for the barrage of complaints that 25 degrees is "too cold".

    Morning, fell asleep at 7 last night, woke up at 9:30pm then couldn't sleep until 2am so now I feel dreadful. Still questioning if I should enter an enduro race this weekend in Aberdeenshire or meet some mates in Aviemore for bikes instead...

    This week is too long already.

    Warming up nicely here, no riding today though. None tomorrow either as I'm out on site but if Thursday morning is anything to go by a late start might be in order of the day.

    I have a mate who lives in Nethy Bridge which is handy for round there, unfortunately he lives in a 1 bed hayloft conversion which is infested with wasps.

    Do you want me to slap him around a bit whilst playing Bob Marley?

    Afternoon folks, warm here.
    Coffee, lounging, pool, eating, red wine and beer in no particular order. The only wild boar I’ve seen so far was on my plate.

    Spent the day in a "passive cooling" room at coventry uni. It wasn't cold, it was baking.
    Staggered to the train station to find the train home cancelled. The young ones were right, ASLEF really is an anagram of " complete and utter b4stard " I even had a seat booked due to cross country being completely cr4p

    Maybe the wife thought it was the brake line?

    Turns out Titanium gets very hot when left in the sun, who'd of thunk that.

    Also stupid thought, Commuter No2 has all polished finishing kit, which I could plop on the No1 Ti bike and make it all very very shiny, bar the wheels but im sure I can make those shiny, blind anyone that comes near or some crap like that.
