    Morning all. WFW sadly with noddy squad. Currently damp and dismal out. May attempt a run tonight.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    I think everyone is going to be disappointed! :smiley:

    I have possibly overestimated how it might register on other people's giveafuckometer.

    But I will share later, regardless.

    Been for a run, most of the snow has gone but quite a lot of underlying ice left so made things a bit slippy and treacherous (even by my standards).

    Already been told off for putting in too much effort for something, which I only did because I was told the first draft wasn't detailed enough, which is wasn't because I was told we didn't have the time/money for anything detailed. Can't win.

    Online gym class later.

    Better than Napalm.

    135 degrees of rotation with no resistance achieved. It will suffice. Variable con rod. Now there is a thing.

    Weather is dull and damp.

    Took wasting money up a notch yesterday.

    Son’s iPad repair (not my fault) £85

    New house plants £150. Why!? I’m bored with them already.

    Bike service/repair £220. The line was bad and he was talking too fast but I think he mentioned new Jockey wheel. Whatever, the bike better be clicking noise free when I get it back!

    Car insurance next, yay!

    Ouch. You could have shipped it to me (£40 each way) and given me some Guinness money for less.
    Plus sundries of course.
    Please post a detailed invoice.

    Is there any way you can guarantee that you will only be driving it when Hoppy's is not in his tank? Surely that would bring the premium down.

    Was there a point when you weren't bored of them. They're plants ffs (unless of course they were some sort of fly trap - there's some really cool ones in the greenhouse at Darwin's house in Downe).

    Nope, my route to and from work takes me dangerously close to the tank.

    I bet it hasn't had the same impact on the cost of divorce.
