    I'm Baaaaaaaaack!!!

    :spudwave: (That's for those who are pleased to see me back).

    (That's for those who gave me grief).

    (That's for those who are indifferent).

    By the way (for those who give a FlyingRodent'sRectum - which won't be the last category) - I'm still mental, but I've sorted work out at least.

    Rode my bike today for the first time in over a week, and was surprised at how much I was "off my game". I was riding well, but just didn't feel SuperAlert, so I was just cruising on the way to work.
    And the VifFerraRi was running SOOOOOPER well today (apart from that old DangerDangerWillRobinsonFlashingFuelGaugeBar(FillU pQuickOrYou'llCrashAndDie) thingo, that was quickly rectified by a visit to the PurveyorOfDistillatedHydrocarbons.

    Y'see, I invented me this new (NEW!! IMPROVED!! HIGHTECH!!) chain cleaning and erling device, and now my chain is SparklingClean and also WaxyAndSweetSmelling (gotta lurv that Spectro ChainWax.) Pictures and another boring blurb will follow shortlyish. So in combination with my lowered gearing, the gearchanges were so smooth as to be almost imperceptible. Schweeeeeeeeeeeet....
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    You obviously enjoyed your little holiday, Sir Vif. It is a foine form what ye are to be found in, this pleasant Friday. Well come back.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    So may we take it you are the ErlKing ? I must endeavour to give you a wide berth on my night rides.

    Thankyou, Kind soir.
    Not a moment too soon, by the look of it. I appear to have dropped off the bottom of the GoodReputationTable (does that mean I'm soon to appear in the BadRep one??) and I'm teetering dangerously on the edge of the MostProlificTimeWasters table as well.

    Oh yeah - and I seem to have a BigUglyRedDotWotLooksLikeAFesteringBoil next to my name on each of my posts.

    Wot's up wi' dat?!? :spudwhat:
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.

    Underuse, misuse, selfabuse ?

    Yeah. all of that.

    Oh sorry - I just realised you might have been talking about yourself. Ooops - don't let me interrupt your reverie...

    Yeah, me too.
    I'm really tempted to take off, if I could just find an excuse. My boss has just given me some BoringCrap to do too.
