jedi - can't you spend the time building a ramp up your banisters and round the upstairs landing or something. I'm sure there's some challenging lines to be built indoors 😉

I don't want to be left out so I'm still waiting for the brakes.

Last I heard was they were loaded for delivery at the Stoke depot at 01:54 this morning.

Hopefully I'll have the BFe built up by Sunday 😀

I have been waiting for 3 months for a frame now, was meant to be 4-6 weeks, didn't come in that delivery to the suppliers, then didn't come the month after. I have my first race in 2 weeks time, if I don't know for sure when I will have it on Monday I will have to cancel and buy something else. Shame as that was the frame I really wanted. 🙁

It is driving me nuts, I have new forks, brakes and wheels sat in my living room, crying out to be fitted, reminding me every single night that I don't have the frame yet.

welll .... DPD win top service.

my regular driver found my house and put it in the "safe place" we agreed - so the text i just received tells me. Gabor is the man !

I guess Ian sacked off early last night to watch the footie.

Tomorrow i must stay in for the morning to wait on next years fire wood being delivered.

I generally find DPD are the dogs doodahs.

Parcel Force however - come on guys it's been on the van for almost 10 hours now and you're only 15 miles down the road!!!

Oooh, I've just remembered I'm waiting for a frame too 😛 as well as the lovely Raceface bars which were out for delivery yesterday and then taken back to the depot 👿 . Damn, you know you have a problem when you can't even remember what last week's eBay purchases were 😕

Waiting on my light bicycle rims to be built. All the parts are sitting at Bike Remedy in Stonehaven, so it should just be a matter of days now until I get the built up wheels back. I'm also waiting on some 10 speed stuff for my hard tail to arrive.

“Siddhartha,” he said, “why are you waiting?”
“You know why.”
“Will you go on standing and waiting until it is day, noon, evening?”
“I will stand and wait.”
“You will grow tired, Siddhartha.”
“I will grow tired.”
“You will fall asleep, Siddhartha.”
“I will not fall asleep.”
“You will die, Siddhartha.”
“I will die.”
