One rather expensive chinese meal for my parents and me last night

2nd of October when I went to london for my first ever gig was an early birthday present. I got some moolar from my sis and her BF to spend on Tat, got the first series of the horror movie classics vinyls:


Castle crashers the other day to play a friend whos just got an xbox and is a graphics designer for a flash games company:


WGPS606 the other week to get my printer sorted out over the network:


Trek 6000 bike today


Roof bars for said bike:

The 6000 is the bike i was looking at back along when i bought an MTB, its a nice bike specced bike for the money, and the frames are very big/long :D

I basically went in and asked what old stock they had, it was the last thing that they had in a frame size that would fit me from the 2009 range. The alternative was a specialized hardock which was maybe £100 cheaper, but significantly heavier and had slightly worse components. Pretty happy with it though Ive only given it a quick 10 min ride today. It weighs as much as my old bike which was I think actually a kids bike, considering it was a present for my 13th birthday >< Certainly I felt like I was riding a BMX almost.

Fully intend on cycling around the new forest and the likes this winter if I end up out of work for any time. Before it was a bit too much hassle what with having a micra, but now I have the means :D Im just a bit pissed off with how the NF has strict cycle routes and £500 fines if youre caught off of them. I can understand the reason behind the erosion, but at the same time I think there are many routes which are suitable for bikes which wouldnt be subject to erosion if they were cycle routes. Thankfully Im located that if I get fed up of the roads and gravel tracks in the NF theres other, smaller forests and plantations which AFAIK dont have any restrictions on them. With any luck my geocaching signature will increase somewhat in December :D

I just went though my bank statement to see what Ive bought recently and it was mostly fuel and bills, how depressing.

Same here, the only new thing Ive purchased is Windows 7 and that went through on business.

Yes, the diablo is quite small.  Not tried beans in it yet, but Egg, Mushroom and Salmon is nice.

Better than a sandwich toaster as you can lob it in the dishwasher when your done.
Also get more filling in it than a toaster. :D
