    PA has provided me with £51.45 this month , not bad considering I only look at surveys in the evenings .
    Your lad sounds like he is going to be very tall , like his relatives.
    Great to hear you are doing driving lessons , would I be right to say it will help you when back at work to be able to get in your car and drive home will make your day shorter as you do shifts don't you ?

    Anyway I slept well for some reason , and I am driving shortly to your part of the world , well near Whitby , same coast line .

    Have a good weekend.

    I'm just South of Glasgow and have lived here all my days. I love it actually. Suburban town but can get to the city in 25 minutes.

    Sounds like driving will help you out in a variety of ways - with your son, your commute and accessing free things to do :) Are you getting closer to test time or still a bit off? Do you have plans to get a car once you pass?

  • Well today has being a chill day for me i was out for a drink with my old man last night. My dads 73 and he drinks in cheap social clubs i think i had 2 coors light, a pint of some real ale that looked and tasted like sheep dip then a couple of pints of the black stuff. I bought a margarita pizza from the takeaway on the way home and i have 3 quid change outta 20 quid.

    The rest of my day has being boring i did a pilates thing i found on youtube in the hope of rehabing my lower back. That killed 20 mins, i hate to admit it the number of back injuries i have had i am going to have to buy yoga or pilates pants. I have tried doing surveys but its being quiet, bar thats its being crap movies on Now Tv and feet up.

    1) A bad powerlifting deadlift injury tore through muscles at the base of the spine

    2) A motorbike accident where i fractured my L1/L2 verbebrae

    3) Last year i was diagnosed with curvature above the L1 and L2

    4) This lol


    I have got my stuff ready for my journey south tomorrow Kent and back by train is gunna be a joy not. Its great to get my son but this bit i hate, travelling by train can really make you hate people.

    Braehead is about 20 miles from me and we go out there for shopping quite a bit. Denny is the same distance in the opposite direction, but I've no reason to go there :) Not far at all!

    Hi Scott

    Glad to hear you're recuperating

    The Beastie is being nursed along by my local friendly bike mech... he's taking it easy as he has to basically surgically remove the BB from the frame to avoid damaging it. It's a tricky job and I really appreciate that he's doing it right... hope it's not much longer though, everything else is done and the bike looks great so far. Will keep ye posted mate.

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.
    R.I.P. T.P.
