Actually mate, I might need one. The Dullville is dead again and stranded at work. I can probably get it sorted in time but I'm not confident it would start once at the shire. If you would be OK with collecting me from Oxford that would be ace. I can cycle to sainsburys if you like so you don't have to come through town.

Gay, I have to go to a seminar in Swindon in the evening. Trust me, its not through choice, its for work :(. Sorry gang.
I'm a 100% sure I won't be there, I need to sort my front sprocket nut as I suspect its loose.

My sprocket nut was loose for quite a while and was accompanied by a slight jingling noise of the washer vibrating about. I tried in vain for ages to find the source of the jingling which became instantly obvious during a chain and sprocket change. I renewed the nut and washer to be sure it wouldn't happen again.

No worries. It should be OK to come and pick you up. Although not sure what the traffic is like on the Iffley road at rush hour? Say about 6pm?

I think it would tie in to my slight oil leak as the seal behind there has alot of pressure.

Poor excuse. I just changed a fuel pump over coffee break. Block of wood and a breaker bar -you'll av it tightened in no time. We shall be expecting you at 6:30 sharp ;-)
Pah... I thinks I have slightly more travel time then you. Plus I came in on the train, so I'd need to get back to the digs first.

Oh crap. I've just found out my colleague is having her leaving do this evening and I should go as we've worked pretty closely since I started my PhD. So after all that I'm not going to be able to come tonight :-( ****. Sorry ladies and gents.

Damn it, I feel really bad now!
I'm not coming, it's then end of January, and I am skint until Friday. Just going to have to say no I'm afraid, I'm trying extra hard to stick to my monthly budget this year!
It's the wrong tuesday anyway.
Given I'm still at work...
I'm out. :(
Well, I am back home from The Shire now.
We really need to arrange a meet of some sorts in the near future.
