    Working from office far away, which isn’t an issue for the pub because no ale tonight, the issue is I’m racing tomorrow and wanted to maximise rest

    Morning, nice cool start to the day we had a fair amount of rain yesterday, will hopefully get out on the bike this morning
    TLW what race are you participating tomorrow?

    Morning
    Clouded over now but was lovely and sunny on the ride in this morning.
    Quiet day again today I expect.

    A stupid running race - phones should have an app that stops you signing up for things whilst in the pub

    Morning,

    Feeling a bit dodgy this morning. The OH and her parents are up and taking the day off but I have too much work to do to skive. Hopefully heading away early as the useless IT guy needs to bugger up my computer again

    Morning, doom is coming, well dark clouds in every direction bar the sunny bit I'm in (blessed MK, Satan's layby etc).
    Some randoms been ringing trying to get hold of me since half eight reckons I know how to fix her software problem. Never spoken to her or dealt with her etc so I'm doing a full swerve on that.

    Tempted to try an spam out some miles on the turbo later, see how I feel

    Final close for the year-end with auditors. Bless 'em, they ain't so bright.

    Long way home tonight.

    But does she have nice norks?

    Every challenge is easier when in the pub.

    Anti-virus took a wobbly last night and i've only just managed to log on 'safely' just now.
    Must chase up stuff that I need to chase up.

    Laters.

    No idea, worked out someone at the main HO in londonshire is giving out my name as they worked out I know how to use Oracle (three more calls all wanting me to fix crap) , may facebook/linkedin stalk to confirm norkage.

    Appear to have offended someone in the buying advise thing so I'll leave that rather than start bear prodding

    Someone with a spendy frame deliberately misunderstanding the word "value" to show off that he can afford a spendy frame, and values having his ego stroked by a metal basher.

    "Craftsmanship", "artisan", "specification", "custom". I saw you coming more like.

    As you say though, that's his choice.

    Yeah it was starting to sound like an M&S food advert with all the buzz words being thrown in.

    Coincidence - dispatched our auditors with a very easy year end closing earlier today. And asked where the invites were for entertaining from their tax mob as they're just finishing up as our auditors.

    Otherwise, back into the routine - at least it was only a 1 day week.
