The 7 will be kept as a backup.
I'm still running the 6T, thought about an upgrade but couldn't justify the cost as this still did everything I need.

Well done for clearing the cards down though.. is the job still going well?

The hours are a royal pain but the pay is great, I'm loosing weight and the work is very enjoyable so I can deal with the hours for now, once my 6 month probation is up I can move to either a Monday-Friday pattern or 4 on/4 off depending what it will do to my take home pay.

I've managed to clear 5.5K over 3 cards since Christmas... Well nearly, last payment on the last card is being made on Monday/Payday

Only SRAM GX. I considered going to a Copper XO1 cassette or eThirteen Helix R until I saw the prices... £380!!!

I can't go for a cassette cheaper than this because I have the XD Freehub Body.

New all weather roll bag for the bike, slightly smaller than the big one I bought for Croatia, which is still going strong.... many years later.

New Pro skins base layer top, and a pack of 100 black vinyl gloves.

A £175 demand for estate management fees. The rules mean I have to pay it, even though they've done none of the promised work.

Some aquarium plant food

Parking ticket, with 1 day to pay before it goes up by £40... No chance to validate whether it's justified or not.

Yet another unmonitored, ungoverned, money making racket
