    Dysons suck.

    Children clothed and fed, horses fed and ejected, Zwift lead done (3r volt 6am this morning) now doing something genuinely fun at work, day 2 of a 3 day design sprint.

    I have also just had a jaffa cake. Could today get any better?

    what does "3r volt" mean?

    Always wondered how people were putting out 20w/kg on Zwift for 200 miles while talking bs on the game chat.


    In all seriousness, how do people type so eloquently on Zwift chat while putting out impressive W/kg? Some pro level lads fallen through the net, from what I regularly witness!


    Afternoon. WFH, more of the same today. BIG day tomorrow, slightly overwhelming tbh!
    What's happening tomorrow Ben?

    I'll tell you tomorrow. Other people need to know first. :smile:
    New job riding a cargo bike?
    Going to Derbyshire to liberate a Tesla.
    Massage Parlour manager?
    Going to appear in court after assaulting several rozzers in a pub?
    signing up to be a hat for 11 years then getting medically binned but having done exemplary service then setting up a number of small yet incredibly lucrative businesses?

    ordering tomorrow hopefully if its still in stock (new month on the credit card so bosh it on that). We keep the c/c down to zero each month (Visa's worst customers).

    Won't be posting about it on here though - that be for indoor training and dullards section.

    Whilst that's a little on the large side even I'd have let that go as an espresso, more like a double admittedly. Certainly not out of the question.

    Afternoon folks,
    Busy day of wfh here, but at least there has been minimal walking involved. Sick to the back teeth of fighting this poxy computer system. The lad just rang, he's been offered a placement for next year so will actually be earning some money which is good.

    So my pint of instant coffee with a good dollop of milk doesn't get your full approval?

    Down here-ish, but he has an interview with someone else tomorrow that's on the south coast and rather more prestigious.

    Well it was so close to my own (entirely correct) views on coffee I didn't see the joke. I can't be doing with all these long drinks that claim to be coffee.

    Its the shame of it. I just measured the output and its 35ml, 7,5ml over max tolerance on an espresso.

    16-18g of coffee beans to draw about 40g of espresso in about 25 seconds. Give or take. Beans within 2-4 weeks of roasting.

    Breakfast as is.

    Mid morning, diluted with hot water to make a long black.

    This is the way.
