    Just bought one of these to tidy up the study and not sit drumming the fingers whilst waiting for the sad old Dell PC with 512mb of RAM to wake up.

    Ride cancelled due to the rain, which is now coming down sideways 🙁
    No idea what to do now…

    Started pissing down moments after I’d finished my porridge and filled my bottle.

    Watching yesterdays Tour De Suisse highlights, MotoGP followed by the final Dauphine stage later…

    Prolonged wet spell today will probably be the kick up the arse to try and recover the desktops corrupted hard drive. This will be dull, my tools of choice are usually large and heavy.

    In fact, it’s so appealing I may actually still go out on the bike.

    Trip up to Bristol in a minute, picking a mate up on the way:

    Go Outdoors
    Bespoke Bicycle Show at The Paintworks
    Lunch somewhere nice
    Range (St Philip’s Marsh)

    If it dries up later, I might wash my bike – filthy from yesterday.

    Going to spec out a bike and the replacement bits for my current one (can’t afford ANY of it yet, hence just speccing it all up!). Might also start prepping my machine for formatting at the end of the week, fed up of ubuntu telling me that I only have 500mb remaining on 2 of my drives!

    So wish I’d gone out yesterday now but the weather reports yesterday afternoon said that it was just going to be cloudy today. Now there are saying its going to pee down all day 🙁

    I’ll still go out but I’m digging out the mudguards and all weather gear to trudge around the Surrey Hills.

    Winter seems to have passed NZ by so far , has been somewhat moist but quite warm. Beautiful day today -2hr paddle, 3hrMTB and then an orienteering race. All in warm sun albeit a bit nippy in the valleys. Relaxing with a few reds and the fire cranking while assessing the laydeez in the netball !

    Was going to a Classic Car Show but they called it off. Jessies.

    Just been for a wet run over the hills with the dog, hoped it would be enough to tire both of us out, but I don’t think it’s worked!

    About to make some fresh coffee and contemplate whether to sign up to one of those dating website things – wet Sundays surely being one of the reasons to have an OH 🙂 any recommendations for one’s where people’s idea of being active extends beyond ‘country walks’ ???

    Still in bed at the minute 😆 Weather looks crap everywhere – can anyone confirm whether it’s alright at Woburn or is met office right in saying rain all day? Was gonna go down in the afternoon but don’t fancy sandy grinding paste all in my bike.

    Weather is quite lovely in Glasgow at the moment. Have got the shopping and haircut out the way, so now about to pop off for a wee run then after lunch a saunterly road bike ride.

    (This is my first week allowed back exercising since March, so suspect I would have been doing these with a jolly big smile whatever the weather is/was.)

    Off to have a look at Zestys in Wrexham, Sainsburys, pick up a bike box to strip and pack my sold Meta, watch the GP, go for a pint in the Rose & Crown, maybe an episode of Wallander, then bed. A full day.

    Today I will be bimbling around the house with no clear purpose, making cups of coffee, watching a bit of TV, maybe do some reading (‘Revelation Space’ – Alastair Reynolds & Christopher Hitchens archived ‘Slate’ articles) and just generally loafing. I’ll also be diving in & out of STW amusing myself at the expanse of peoples ego’s and ill-informedness (that last word doesn’t exist).

    Been riding in the rain – practice for Mayhem as the forecast is for it to be like this all next weekend. Oh joy.
