This!

I live in an end of a block of "town houses " (5 terraced together) so I'm effectively in a semi-detached. My neighbours are great - vegan punk rockers from Jarrow! It's a nice place to live - everyone on my street nods and says hello and it's pretty chilled out. I suspect I'm the pain in ...

Roast pork, crackling, homemade stuffing, homemade spiced apple sauce and all the trimmings. Buuuuurrrppp!!!

Very promising news mate. I hope this helps drive away the dark thoughts you are bound to have had about your sight. I think this would look good on you http://www.printedclothing.com/shack/contents/en-uk/p2396_bus_wanker_hoody.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I might g...

Must be something in the air - this morning I broke my fast with sausage, bacon, egg, beans, toast and hash browns washed down with a litre of freshly ground coffee. I'd woken up with a hypo so I thought I deserved it!

Latest update..... I went to see my consultant yesterday and the good news is there has been definite, measurable progress. I can see more out of the right eye, and the bleeding has stopped. There's still some swelling in the optic nerve but this has been reduced. She's amazed with my diabetes and w...

Jacqueline du Pre playing the Elgar Cello Concerto. The most perfect music ever written to these ears.

Have you seen that Loaf has started doing coffee and food as well as the best bread in town?

Oh and if you're in Kings Heath Maison Mayci is very good (the fit waitresses are an added bonus!).

VFR or Sprint ST? Still more than quick enough...just not insane and they're made for 2 up with luggage.

I try and avoid the big coffee chains for this reason (they're all as bad as each other) and go for local independents where possible. The coffee's usually better quality too.

An old school friend of mine is a doctor for BASICS http://www.basics.org.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; My already high opinion of him has gone up after reading that.

Nice Pixies reference!

Sole purpose of visit!

Yes, lots has been happening! I went to the QE the day before Good Friday expecting to have a few tests and be on my merry way....5 days later they let me go home! My consultant wasn't happy with the initial diagnosis of non-arteritic ischemic anterior neuropathy. There may still be some permanent d...

When a rider as good as Ben's Pies says that the only riders who do things he couldn't figure out are Casey and Marquez you know the kid's special. I love the looseness that he rides with, and the sheer joie de vivre he seems to show.

Senna Week on Sky Soirts F1. Can't beilieve it's 20 years since his death.

I'm single...it would be more a case of "Oops wrong house"!

As many of you will know I've had a problem with my left eye for a few years but the right eye was still good so driving, riding, reading, working etc. was fine. Unfortunately on Thursday I realised I could actually see less in my right eye than my left and so went to the Birmingham and Midlands Eye...

Feck me if that bastid was any heavier it'd have a couple of C90s orbiting it!

They look very similar to Spada Enforcers (though perhaps a bit lighter). This is a good thing.
