Having to wear a fleece and battling a force 10 headwind* cycling to the pub. I thought it was July?

Oh, and being fleeced a stupid amount for a very small selection of cheeses at the pub's beer and cheese festival. They were very nice but only worth half of what I paid.

* it felt like it!

I did think of you and your mad hobby as I grazed my knuckles changing my Raleigh's pedals this morning. Seems the same weather keeping me off the GSX-F is also spoiling your season.

Yup, even spoiling any idea of going out on the sv too!

I was going out to the wed Gt Bentley motorbike meet, but then the weather was crap, so no point going to that either.

Bloody woman in a 4x4 pulled out infront of me right across the white line and then drove slowly off. But when I went to pass her she put her foot down and tried to outpace me. We were side by side for a 100 metres before I made it and she glared at me as I passed. Good job there was no oncoming traffic.

Politicians! Can't live with 'em, can't shoot 'em.

Someone has clipped the freshly repaired rear offside of my car again. a nice black rubber streak 3 inch wide with blue paint either side. It polished out, but left 2 scratches. As usual they fecked off again.

This really pees me off. I live in a small cul-de sac. But for some reason we get loads of traffic using it to turn round outside my house and they seem incapable of reversing with their eyes open.

Bloomin recycling centres being closed on Wednesdays, so I have to drive around with 2 buckets of broken concrete in my boot until tomorrow.
