One of those days!

Today has been one of those days, it started of with me setting off late as I couldn't wake up, but still arrived first at work. Next up a client pulls the job I spent 2 days working on, then the printer calls to tell me the job I sent has gone wrong because I did not adjust the margin enough! Sent it again. Computer and sever have a fit. Printer calls back, in my haste I have adjusted the files wrongly, have to do the changes again.

Finish work and head of to meet dogsballs at The Ship, I stupidly go
to the wrong Ship and stand in Soho for 10 mins before i twig! Jump back onto the bike and head off towards hammersmith, wizz round the roundabout towards knightbridge and my chain breaks! Is there a bloody bike shop anywhere - nope! So put the chain in my pocket and push bike back into soho to Evans, do they have a spare link, no, they are crap. Walk to the next bike shop - yes another evans, nope no link for a single speed KMC chain. As I am 100 yards from the studio, I put the bike under the stairs, put jeans on and go to the tube.

Got £5 so think, get a drink so I have tube change, spend £1.18 on a drink and snikers as I'm hungry, get to the tune... £4 for a single!!! FCS how long has it been four fucking quid?

As I said, it's been one of those days.

Ps. Dale, hope you got the text, sorry I didnt arrive to collect the cog!

It's been £4 for a while to try and encourage Oyster cards for which single tickets cost £1.50.

Yes. it is a cnut.

Sorry about the bad day. I know what they feel like.

Yeah, well I forgot my Oyster didn't I!
Was hoping to get the Bridgestone on the road this weekend, but that's stuffed it.
Could have had all bank holiday weekend getting used to riding fixed!
