Be nice to people including management. (Somehow).

    Early start.

    Put up shelf.
    Blustery day so maybe pedal / maybe run.
    Unsure what to do work wise....

    Good morning to one and all. W&k off to the dentist. Quick espresso then an hour on the bike before work. Contemplating putting the christmas tree up this weekend. Gives the kids some cheer while I oslate from them for two weeks.

    Apparently most of us are banned from the forum.

    Here's a picture from my run this morning regardless:

    Not work working this week until Thursday, combo of weather forecast and moving into the quieter season. Glint of sun through the windows. Will go and try out the new grippier ultrabite front tyre on the gravel aka mud bike, hoping for a good compromise between easy rolling on the tarmac and less, much less, side slip on the soft.

    Message to self for today. Do Not React to internet Wayne Kerrs.

    Just back from a morning run.

    Now time for a shower, shave, espresso, sweep yard, put up shelves and grease bearings on winter bike.

    In the office being a lockdown rebel, making the most of the opportunity to cycle on not as busy roads in London plus free coffee at work :smile:

    Dentist later for the latest in my implant saga (read wallet extraction).

    I’ve been to the dentist 3 times in the last 20years. Mind you it does cost me about £600 per visit but that’s a saving of £600 if I had twice yearly check ups 😃

    And I have all my own teeth apart from the gold ones 😃

    Morning folks,
    Back to wfh again today, usual shite to sort out. Had to go into the orifice yesterday and then go and see my beautiful assistant so I took the car

    Should go for a run at lunchtime, might try for a lap of the grounds

    Hope Seano likes the photos I took

    Up early, complained a lot. Ran, complained a lot. WFW not much to complain about.

    Might make a brew.

    So long as the pettiness stays out of these threads and they stay for total bollox we'll be ok.
    I think I might start a thread on Gillian Anderson playing Thatcher, some will hate the idea, some will be conflicted, Bally will have to shut himself in a dark room :D

    Had to Google the reference as I don't watch The Crown.
    Hmmn, the Great Lady being played by a bit of a milf? Interesting...

    As for milfs playing politicians, Robin Wright in House of Cards would probably require a dark room and a box of tissues. Something about her.

    No abuse Tuesday friend of Bally, self or otherwise :o
    I should create a safe space for this discussion, will it be too much for cake stop?

    I've never seen the Crown, saw a reference to it somewhere and it made me laugh

    When did posts in pro race need approval? Or is that just for people from Bottom Bracket?

    Is the random software on this site now. Posts seem to get sent for moderation for no apparent reason, e.g. a pro rider name selection for the PTP.

    Ride ridden. New front tyre could be the answer, rolls ok on tarmac but helluva grippier in grassy soft slight mud mess. Back wheel slipped several times, front wheel not at all, that's fine can cope with that no worries, confidence def building during the ride.

    I see. I wondered why it wasn’t accepting Carol Voderman for rear of the year.
