Edition!
Everytime I turn my TV on, this “Gok Wan” guy seems to be on it, telling mingers to take their clothes off! No, please don’t!
So I asked a few women “Who is this Gok guy?” and they all scoffed back at me (like I was stupid) “he used to be 21 stone”…..
Now, that isn’t “who” [...]
I’ve spent the last few days helping a friend of mine install Ground Source Heating.
To cut a long story short, below the frost line (1m/3.5ft deep around here) the ground temperature is almost constant. By using this fact, you can send water in a pipe around your garden, on a 500m trip and then use [...]
It’s the summer solstice today, the “longest” day of the year. The actual solstice happened at 2359UTC on 20th but as we are in BST at the moment, it did just manage to fall inside 21st June at 0059!
The solstice is when the earth is at it’s maximum “tilt” one way or the other, so [...]
Keeps head cooler though! The two barbers made me laugh. One was hyperactive today and the other was really chilled. Chalk and cheese!
I was surprised how I had no aches and pains after my London to Brighton jolly come Monday morning. Today is my first of two days off in a row (something I don’t seem to achieve much!) so I’m going to drive to Eastbourne and “do” the Cuckoo Trail, no hurry, just a nice gentle [...]
Well, I did it, without incident or accident! My first ever London to Brighton bike ride! Yay! (see below for the GPS track!)
To be honest, and without wishing to brag, it wasn’t anything special distance wise, although I don’t usually do more than 40 miles in a day, 53 isn’t anything too bad, after all, [...]
Tomorrow is the big day…. I’ve raised around £280 for the British Heart Foundation and, all things being equal, at 0830 tomorrow morning I will leave Clapham Common in the centre of London to cycle the fifty four miles to Brighton.
Thank you for everyone who is supporting me and I’ll see you on Madeira Drive [...]
I have gotten myself a little GPS Bluetooth device, which I’ve borrowed from Eugene and I’m using a piece of J2ME software for my mobile phone called Track My Journey, which allows me to upload my journey, live, as it happens, to the TMJ website…. all very exciting. The stats on there are really [...]
It’s just ten days to go until I take part in the London to Brighton Bike Ride for the British Heart Foundation.
Don’t forget you can sponsor me at Justgiving.com via their secure server. Don’t forget to “Gift Aid” it if you are British Tax Payer!
