Retro-boredom

[legrandefromage]

I'm bored...

And guilty about feeling bored too, a bit like a fatty eating chocolate knowing it will make things worse (fatty as in generic stereotype non PC fatty sitting in the corner face covered in crumbs and KFC wrappers).

Bikes are done, other 'retro' stuff is done.

The mirthmobile soundsystem is done (even that is retro with a 1999 head unit and 4th gen iPod...).

Housework needs doing but thats easy.

My reason for the boredom? Brimming Paypal for those retro buys that are supposed to be out there. But no 'real world' money to go out in the van and go somewhere. As you know, a 'real world' £1 is about £3 in paypal world at the current exchange rate.

Wheres the exciting stuff? What is 'exciting' stuff? And why does nothing on ebay take my fancy??

Am cycling tomorrow so that will help. Weathers better too, less of the burning-whilst-wearing-jumper-and-sweating weather that comes with cold air but strong sunshine.

Retro-bored thumb twiddling continues...

Why not come to Derby for a canoe-based adventure? Nothing at all like cycling.

Thats generous as ever, Chris, but I'm struggling to justify the costs of driving anywhere at the mo!

Why not ride to London and kick some chav in the nuts at random, I am sure you will find it an interesting day out.

I've gone a bit stale on the retro side of things too. Bored of low end stuff, don't have the money to build mid range gear that could run along side what I've got. I'd chuck everything in for the right top end bike so could afford one but nothing comes up that takes my fancy.
