Question.....
Who's got two thumbs and (due to attempting an early morning pre-departure kitchen and bathroom u-bend clean) is going exactly nowhere today???
Water f@#king EVERYWHERE, smelly sludge worthy of a nationwide Thursday evening doorstep clap all over me, the kids screaming about not wanting to spit their toothpaste in the toilet and now sitting grumpily awaiting the emergency plumber to try to figure out exactly what very expensive thing has broken - yay!!!!!

Can you do an adjusted bike trip? Be good to be out....
Yup! I'm off early tomorrow morning now. No work solution presented itself and so I've simply decided to go and not to do the work I've got on until I get back - simples!
I just hope that another three or four showers removes this drain stink!
I went on my nano-adventure and it was bloody lovely! A sniff over two days away from home and I managed to squeeze in two five hour drives, two sunny gravel-tastic rides (45km and 91km), two train journeys, two iconic Italian cities visited and two nice sleeps.
Bad news:
Despite eating sensibly, staying away from booze and riding loads I managed to come back heavier than I left - what gives???
Obviously plenty of contributory factors and not really worrying as we'll see what's what on Friday.
Great work all, having my first weigh in tomorrow, I have been struggling with a cold and the aftermath of a rough December.

I bloody love riding bikes I do!!!!!
hey you got out and did lots of miles (or Km)
you ate sensibly
you've converted adipose tissue to muscular tissue.
Try a different metric, have you lost a few cm or are clothes getting looser?
I hope you think you know, what I might of exactly meant.
Warning - may contain value odded typos & ither mythspellings..
Currently (very much not) enjoying the post-bike trip blues.
Fed up with everything and everyone and so despite being good while away I've since been unceremoniously shovelling crap inside myself under the guise of 'refuelling' and so no surprise I'm up a bit.
In a few days it'll be the one month milestone of zero booze which is nice and I'm totally not bothered about it still at this point.
Weigh-in for me tomorrow. Wife came back two days early from working out her notice Shetland yesterday, so had a celebratory takeaway last night. No point weighing that

Week one 81.9 kg
Week two 81.0 kg slow and steady lol
Week three 80.0 kg still working off the cheese and crackers from the weekend
Week four 79kg. Now just another 4 (but should be 5 or 6 really) kgs to go.
Re-start (2021) 101kg
14th Jan 99.2kg
20th Jan 99.0kg
again, right direction, but not enough.
Was properly hungry after my ride last night, ended up stuffing pasta and then snacks galore down my greedy face at around 11pm, so lucky to have not rolled onto the scale...

Yeah, Thursday is a regular night ride for us too. That ends up at a pub and by the time I get home I just want to eat everything.
