1 Cotic Soul - dark blue.
1 Gary Fisher Ferrous - pale blue 'leatherette' finish (due to some rust pitting on frame - decided a matt finish would hide it better than gloss).

South Coast Blast Cleaning in Newhaven.

pics when I'm back 🙂

The sun is shining!

I've just seen a woman lock her dog in the car whilst she goes to get some shopping.

I have three and a half months off work starting from the beginning of September.

vague plan so far is to go to Iquitos, Peru to drink ayahuasca and then hopefully on to Indonesia to start a beginners course in Satria Yoga.

If you give me your iPad, I can hand it back to you 4 minutes 38 seconds later and will have most of your stored passwords off of it.

Iquitos, Peru

Been there, jumped in a swimming pool with my watch, it was never the same (this counts as interesting right?)

Last night, whilst riding towards Hayfield, I saw a ferret (type of thing) walking along the pavement. It looked quite big and well fed. Wondered if it was an escaped pet.

Funnily enough, it was walking towards the Waltzing Weasel pub 🙂

The railway viaduct in Stockport is the largest brick built structure in Europe and Preson has the largest bus depot in Europe, so clearly there are things we are better at than the Germans.

if your breathing apparatus packs in underwater and you breath out slowly all the way to the surface, you could still arrive at the surface with a greater volume of air in your lungs than when you left the bottom.

oh, and cops don't like when they knock on your door and you answer with
"and how can I help you sonny?". Seriously drops the odds of your being able to weasel out of a speeding ticket.
neither cool nor interesting, but worth bearing in mind. Especially if you're me and have a bit of a tendancy to operate with mouth in gear, brain in neutral

I have tonsillitis, and, much as I have tried to, am not enjoying it.

Edit:oops, pressed return too early.

What I wanted to say was:

Tattoos are contagious and can be caught from swimming pool water*

*according to the rambling incoherent letter/consent form brought home from our primary school yesterday.

Panaracer Mach SS cross tyres need to be at 75psi to allow one to 'rag' ones crosser. Pressures below this make the bike feel like its riding through treacle.

Just outside Madrid there is a village called Daganzo de Arriba (Upper or Higher Daganzo), but there isn't a corresponding Daganzo de Abajo (Lower Daganzo). 😯

My weight and blood pressure are a lot lower than they were when I started eating the iDave way, 2 months ago.

And they're lower than they were about 10 years ago too.

Just tested Michelin all mountains and I like them, more surprising than interesting... but they look cool.
