Sweetie, if you think 14mm is super long, you might have a tiny bit of a problem |

Had a phone call from work this afternoon. My promotion has now been confirmed.  All the hoops have been jumped through, it's now just a case of a date, should be around mid October time
The only downside to it is I have to leave where i'm working now and go somewhere different. No more riding 'work' bikes for a while. But I can certainly live with that as we are harly ever able to get out on them anyway.
But, once i've done my 'probation year' in the new rank I may try to return if a vacancy pops up. Or I may try something completely different. Who knows what the future brings.
I'm very very happy, pleased and excited, but at the same time a little apprehensive and nervous. |

Yesterday evening;
Decide that as I am in car for 5 hours driving back from Cornwall I should catch up with some peeps by telephone (have proper hands free kit in car)
One certain lady from this site answered and the first thing she said was to shout down the phone.....
"MY CRABS HAVE GONE!"
had me chuckling to myself for ages
