Excellent ride, really quite good. Very snowy on the ground though and hard work like crazy in places. Met Vortex Racing from STW and many others, seem like nice people.

In other news….
Boiler is now working. Three days without heat or hot water was interesting. Surprisingly the lack of heat wasn’t a major issue despite it being very cold. Just wrap up warm and put two pairs of socks on. We could save a fortune in money and energy if we all did the same. Bit crap not being able to get a shower though. It was fantastic coming home and seeing the steam coming out of the condensing pipe, I rushed upstairs and had a nice long hot shower. The cause? British Gas installed the drain pipe horizontally so the water collected in it and froze. Thanks. The fix? British Gas came and cut the pipe off. Thanks.
I start work at my new job tomorrow. Bit nervous, I’m worried I won’t like it but we’ll see.
Also my son gained his youth accreditation at the track on Saturday, well chuffed I am, hope he keeps being interested in that. He’s starting to get quite good and while it clearly needs a fair degree of parental and financial commitment to pursue a hobby on the track, I’m right behind him.
I think that’s it. Oh, I’m still making changes to the site so bear with it, no doubt the site won’t work sometimes as I battle with some simple html/css format but tough shit basically. I don’t think anyone will really care to be honest.
