1003.03 GOOD CYCLING

It's turning out to be a good week for cycling for me. I finally managed to get out on the work bike clocking up almost 20 miles (that's on top of my usual mileage). It felt good to get back out.

I've been tinkering with my own bike this week, fitting new brake pads and trying to chase a few squeeks and rattles that have appeared of late.

The Cycle to Work scheme seems to be a non-starter. I guess without anyway to fund a new bike, I'm stuck with just the old one. I'm very disappointed with the powers above with this.

1003.03 G-SHOCK

Missed out on a watch, a nice g-shock that one of the guys at work was selling. Unfortunatly someone else already had first dibs. Story of my life.

1003.01 HAPPY ST. DAVID'S DAY

Happy St. David's Day to all my Welsh friends and to the people of Wales. Hope to see you soon.

1002.28 SOCIAL LIVES

Morticia has taken Rags, our youngest, to a party at a roller skating rink. It's feet up time!

It's sad when your children's social lives are better than your own.

1002.27 HOME FRONT

Getting kids sorted for drama, both off them are members of Kimberworth Youth Theatre and are performing in a play next month.

It's called 'On the Home Front' at Rotherham Arts Centre on 1003.11 and 12 (11-12th March).

I'm a very proud Dad.

Once I've dropped them off maybe I'll get a couple hours to relax so I can get over last week.

1002.26 MAD NIGHT

10:44 - Hmmmm, there's a nasty smell in our building today (fuel/gas), gonna go out incase it explodes.

22:22 - What a mad night! Glad it's done, time to go home. Once again I find myself working past my finish. Will I ever get a flyer? The only bonus is that it's the end of the working week and the end of a 60 hour week.

Roll on the weekend!

1002.23 MORE SNOW BUSINESS

It's snowing again, and once again I'm working. It's f-f-ffrreeeeezzing outthere! Luckily I've managed to procure a vehicle for the evening.

1002.22 SCROOGE METER

I just got an energy meter for free from my energy provider. It's interesting to see which appliances are energy hungry and which aren't. I find myself watching the numbers trying to get it as low as possible. I guess that's what it's all about.

1002.19 FOURSQUARE

I first checked into Foursquare on 1001.23

Meadowhall Sheffield - Buying a health grill. 10:18 AM

Since then I've been checking in like mad, collecting badges and adding venues. It's really addictive. I guess I need a new button for my website. The only thing that's missing is a decent app for Nokia, for the moment I'm using the mobile website to check in (not as good but still a usable option).
