The throttle not closing automatically upon sensing a speed camera van round the corner Sad

I don't think I was going too fast though so hopefully they will be gentle with me.

My daughter getting woken up by a text message from Brunel University saying she didn't get the results she needed to get her place.

She can't even find out what her results were until after 09:00am.

What the fuck happened to August and the Summer, why is it now november and autumn?

It's pissed me off because I have now had 2 random weeks of work, no money to do anything, barely leave reigate and the weather is shite. All because I am earning so bloody little, all I do is earn to exsist...it's bollox.

I am looking for a new job and by fuck I hope I get one soon. Shocked

How long is the run on the cable, I may have enough spare, failing that put a connector in screw it together and wrap in insulating tape. Cool

Am spending my last ever week at my Mums in La Clusaz as she is selling the house Sad

Blazing sunshine, 34 degrees, and I don't have my bike here. To top it all off all I hear is the sound of engines being caned, and all I see is chavs in shorts and t shirts riding like tw@ts... Not a fecking clue!!

Next year I will get my act together and do some touring.
