    'Ning

    Cold again but back home now.

    The full in-tents experience the other night, strategically pitched behind the car for shelter from the wind which worked until the wind changes direction...

    Van would have been useful in that case but I don't think I'd get enough use out if it to justify the cost.
    I was the only tent at the site, everyone else was in a van.

    Another day off again today which I think will be spent unpacking. I only went for 1 night!

    Meant to be a rest day but a gentle jog with the hounds is a good way to start the day.

    Morning all. Chilly ride in, almost daylight as well. Hopefully steady day today. Last night's beer having severe repercussions for those around me. I like pedigree but don't think it likes me.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Keep your fingers crossed Seano - even viruses have standards :p

    Woke up when the alarm went off for a change rather than an hour or so before. On the train with leg complaining about yesterday's bike ride less than the previous one. That's progress. I predict a pasty and coffee will feature in this mornings fun.

    Woke at 6ish to beautiful skies, now it's clouded over. B4stards.

    Nice ride over the weekend in the sun/cloud/wind.
    Need to enter the Tour De Manc later as I've said to a friend who is training for IM Bolton that I'd ride with her for support.
    Painting later.

    Turned out a lovely day after overnight drizzle. Finished loading ute with all the shrubbery I murdered yesterday, and headed off to the tip. Far too much of it to do the usual mulch and recycle.

    Dodged a few other jobs this afternoon.

    Afternoon folks,
    Busy day in the orifice, should have stayed on the bike and just gone for a ride. Much laughing at the state of people on Friday evening, I was accused of being one of the responsible adults. I can't say I agree with that, especially given the state I was in pedalling home. But I suppose that's a relative thing and some of them were in all sorts of trouble. I just made sure my girls got in a cab and away safely before I left. Is that being a responsible adult or just not being a [email protected]?
    Oops, got waylaid for a couple of hours and lost my train of thought.
    Marmorhaus looks like fun, lets go, I could do without the snakes though.

    Came from Edwyn. Cannibalism is the name of the game.

    I think I saw that on Masterchef once.

    Or maybe it was mastiffchef?
