And today I did......

[perry]

Got told off today for sitting down when there was fook all to do . Apparently I have to stand , balls to that , this isn't china yet .

Thought about walking when I was told to "push" an offer we have . Face it , if people aren't interested theyre not interested , an increased figure on a bit of paper isn't going to make people buy something .

I'll leave before I have to give a hard sell and I couldn't care less about predicted sales , my ethics don't change for minimum wage

And while I'm having a moan I will have done 7 straight days on tues totaling more than than 30 hours ; don't forget I'm part time , everyone else seems to have .

On a less pissed off note a couple came in for a longer than normal rear QR so the lady could fit a trailer to the back of her orange to drag the sprog about but because we didn't have anything longer and even though I mentioned changing the skewer part as it's threaded at both ends they bought a whole new bike . it's alright for some eh

Attempted to cat escape proof my flat as I've just adopted a 12 year old cat called Murphy. He's supposed to stay inside as he has a compromised imune system and a common cat cold could finish him. He'll probably outlive me :roll:

Achieved Zero in the world of bikes, trying to fine tune the Trek SS for SSEC but nothing seems to work satisfactorily, Dahon is in reserve.

Got 3 inside cats , whenever they sneek past the door they just freeze , probably in awe at outside It's easy to pick them up and bung em back inside .

A rabbit has appeared at the other end of the living room . The last one was crazy ; whenever out of the cage it went menacing the cats , chew through the cable for my thinkpad too , wasn't very happy with that .

They taste a bit like chicken or so I've been told :twisted:

done nothing exciting today , f###ed my big orange funn stem by landing a jump at the skateboard track and stripping the bottom thread :evil: it should re-tap and a bigger bolt should fix it but i just flung the gold hope one back on for now...........

sat for a while looking at the b17 with the thinking cap on , got a set of dx v'a and levers coming for it , havent got a clue what wheels to go for so might use the snowflakes..........

the wifes at work so i'm in wi the waynes til 7 , then i'm going up the bings......... lights are charging right now

today I put a few more bits on the Cotic Redux. Just waiting on decals, chain and cassette and it will be ready for trumpton again.

what do yer think??

Crudguard must go, doesn't suit especially with the forks looking reeeeaaalllly long, possibly the black stanchions and legs not helping - geometry still ok? I do love a bike in a light blue though, will reserve judgement until I see the decals applied. I liked the custard too

Function over form I'm afraid- Trumpton is a real shitfest at the moment and you really cant see with a face full of shat. Geometry still spot on- frame was designed for a 140mm fork- this one runs about 120 with sag taken into consideration.
