Mrs Ti_pin gave birth to twins four months ago, love em to pieces. Mind, jeeezus how hard work is two.
Climbed a F7a at the weekend, my first, wahooo.
Ti Ibis came back from Steve Potts repaired, now looking for the time to rebuild her. Dilemma retro build OR back to her SS guise.
Two wool jerseys due for delivery today from ibis, snuggly.

wow, it looks like I've have had a good few months. The truth is its been a hellish four months but I've learned to look for the joy in-between pain and trauma. You should do the same. Nice thread.

Well it's a sunny but cold morning and I woke at 5:30am after a good nights sleep, wild mushroom omelette form breakfast. Stuff is not perfect but it's great to be alive and live in Yorkshire.

BT have just rolled out fibre to my local cabinet and I've ordered Infinity broadband. Should take my 1M speed up to 30M+ (fingers crossed).

Congratulations.

If it's your first (or your second come to think of it) then ride your bike as much as possible beforehand!

Voluntary redundancy at work, then had 2 weeks off and start new job on Monday. New car yesterday, and booked a week at Ciclo Montana with 5 mates last night. Been quite stressful handing in my notice after 16 years, but getting the package and managing to get a better job has made it all worth it.

After some complications I'd count this as good news.

Congratulations Picton - that is truly awesome, she's beautiful. Hope her and Mrs Picton are all good.

Thanks Chakaping - she'll be my second. I'm going to be surrounded by women, even the the 2 cats we have are girls!

In similarly good news to pictonroad, my wifes 12 week scan was all good and still into our 16th week now things seem to be going ok. Our first and it's hard to contain the excitement. All the bad news elsewhere that seems to keep coming our way is just noise frankly.

Air Canada are giving me €600 to say sorry for robbing me of a days riding in Whistler (or, delaying my flight 24 hrs, up to you.)

@loddrik; our condolences

@pictonroad; that's a proper proud and happy dad photo - congratulations!

My good news is that the school Rector (Headmistress) signed off my CPD application to do a 3-day wood turning workshop next Easter; I'm doing it during my holiday and it does eat into a fair chunk of her budget. Haven't yet broken the news to 'Project Management' that I'd like to get a wood lathe for the garage...

Youngest has stopped high velocity liquid pooping. He has however terrorised my wife along with his big brother this evening while I had my first ever climbing wall lesson.

Picton great picture

In general my life is good, I never really have complaints.

But this week I've just become mortgage free at the age of 32, with a nice place in central Edinburgh.
I'm also expecting VERY positive funding news today for a local community cycling project I've been involved with.
