    Kids are both working in the pub tonight, so the current wife wants to go to some class thing with me, hence getting up early to fit a run in 🙄

    I wonder if I can avoid the pub again later!

    Headed into town on the train, got a few meetings and new minion's minion starts today so will go say hello. Head Office is being a pain in the butt so will have to deal with a few problems that should never have existed :|

    Afternoon folks,
    Traditional Thursday morning fuzz is fading, good night in the pub last night. Gloomy wobble in this morning, but certainly better than sitting in traffic. Not heard anything about the old dear's neighbours, our solicitor wrote to their solicitor with instructions not to be so silly and to FRO. I'm paraphrasing a little.
    Just had some mushroom linguini, very good for a microwaveable ready meal. But I'm still hungry. Might go in search of cake.
    Quiet night tonight I hope.

    Ride rided as a non working day para mi. Surprisingly dry on the trails, could have gone for the slicky front option rather than the grippy but too scaredy. Snot inducing headwind on the way out, nice booster on the way back. A good blast does leave me feeling happy.

    A stressful morning until we found out that we are grandparents for the second time, mum and kid doing fine after a scheduled c-section.

    I know it must have been tough for my son too, his partner hadn't been well since Christmas and we were all wondering if it was going to be okay or not.

    Good news day. :)

    fantastic news - many, many congrats.

    Excellent news CS!
    Bright sunny start, -2 degrees. Headed over to Marmolada today, 3265m up in the sky.
    Panoramic photos might not work so well on here, I’m not sure.

    Ben lamented his 980c and we'll see if he'll take the plunge and buy the thing...

    He told me earlier he would and we both know he's not a man to go back on his word.

    I've never known Ben to go back on his word.
    Do you think he got it sent by DHL and it will be there first thing tomorrow?
    I wonder what gruppo and wheels he'll put on it.

    this is true - he's the sort of man who when he says something ypu know 100% he'll go through with it asap - i honestly, honestly can't see him not getting this Cadex by the weekend.

    He said he was going to fit full Chorus on it.

    Well, if he's going to fit full Chorus on it, he's going to fit full Chorus on it and that's that.

    Agree.

    He was well adamant about it as well, which is I suppose better than him being all Adam Ant about it.

    Looking forward to seeing it after the weekend tbh. Monday morning aparkle because we all know he won't let us down.

    Sparkle is an understatement. If it's @Ben it will be a full bling-deep lustre need to wear sunglasses to look at it job.
