Is it February yet?

I am now three and a half days into 31 days of not drinking.

I didn't realise you were in our gang! Let's see if it makes any difference to our Sunday morning averages

How fit are you feeling? I know you have had a bit of a break and it is also going to be cold, which does slow me down. Gets excuses in early.

I always found the biggest impediment to speed while riding together was our propensity for a good natter.

I just cross-threaded and thereby borked a £40 replacement stem. I can't safely ride with just one bolt holding the stem in place so it's going into the girl's toybox. I just can't countenance ditching it.

I have no idea really, just put the Battle of Britain on the tv upstairs as mrs bb is sitting on the settee drinking port! Getting no support here!
I have a bottle of whiskey (unopened) in the cupboard and a number of cans in the garage, so that's another reason why I've come upstairs,
I do have some whisky chocolate liquors, am I allowed these?

I caught my three year old daughter with a chocolate liquor in her gob, did not have the heart to tell her off, she slept well that night though.

I fully intend to have a drink after the singlespeed building session I'm having with an old friend next weekend.
