Ra-ra, those G&Ts were awesome! I'd arranged for my team to go to out in a social, I wasn't going as I had big bike ride pre arranged. My mate cried off the ride so I missed the social and the big ride...boo. But, I saw some hung over colleagues at work this morning. That'll learn 'em to a a brill night out....

I went to work instead of the big ride and ride home on the bike from London, worked out as a medium ride 46 miles.
Glad I don't do that every day, it wasn't what I'm used to in the sticks. Traffic lights every few hundred yards, everywhere seemed to smell of fish & chips. It was trip down memory lane, I grew up in South East Londin and went through all my old haunts.


Weighed in this morning,1lb off! Well pleased, thought I was having such a bad week that I would gain. 1lb from my Target of 12'10.

I updated my weight loss ticker in the week and it hadn't updated, yet it shows the change in my signature link under my profile? Why isn't it showing on my diary page?

 

[Trefoil]

Your food always looks so lovely @Quins it normally takes around 24 hours for mine to update (ticker) but if not I would ask admin!
Hope you're well, I need to keep updated with everyone!

I had to ask Pierce to sort it, there's a long answer in the Tec section....

I got quite cold this morning on my bike ride. It was 4° and misty, I was 5 minutes late leaving and decided to try and still catch my train. Got to the station dripping with sweat, a hard effort. The train arrived as I did, by the time I'd locked my bike up it was leaving.... That's when I git a bit chilly. Need a warm down top.
