TrialsIsHard Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 2-1 Reading tickets. Plus a mate works at Waitrose is getting £60 per ticket. £40 per ticket for reading, f**king yes then. Your mate gets a £60 ticket subsidy for the year, or £30 a ticket if you split it over both. That's what you mean right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Found buyers for my bumpers, engine, gearbox and windscreen. Civics coming in bits quickly and selling well, already enough to buy a cleaner example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Just finished a massive (for my skill level, anyway) auto report building project, got a few new clients on this week, one paying 6 months up front which is unusual and nice. Time for a beer, I think... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrialsIsHard Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 £60 off per ticket is what he told me. Unless he is entitled to double what everyone else is, it's £60 a year. Although that's not exactly bad! I'm happy because I'm having a quiet beer and a dominos, instead of going out and honing a hangover for tomorrow.

I'm happy because I'm having a quiet beer and a dominos, instead of going out and honing a hangover for tomorrow. Oooh is it only £60 off for one ticket? Still not complaining! You can go out and not have a hangover, just don't get stupid drunk haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's £60 once a year for partners, I used mine on Benicassim festival for this summer, making it a mere £65 for a ticket entitling me to camp for 6 days in spain and 3 days of music! Funnily enough I got my dominos delivered by a kid who camped with us at Reading 2012 last night (didn't recognise him till he left), who decided to park his car on top of some 12" high rocks along my front garden while doing the worst 3-point turn I've ever seen, and proceeded to burn out his entire clutch by trying to pull away in third?! We spent an hour jacking his car up to try and put bricks and ramps under it do get it out! And got free dominos too This made me happy because I didn't really have anything to do last night except eat pizza, and this guy turned up and provided me with an hours entertainment. As for drinking, I normally drink responsibly but the party that was on last night is probably still going... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Renting is surprisingly cheap where I might be working if I get the job (fingers bloody crossed just hope being ill didn't make me come across not as well as I could have in the interview). Seen some awesome places for like £300 PCM with EVERY bill included 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrialsIsHard Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 To be fair, Oli, your drive is ridiculous! I'll give you that, there's a reason my gti is parked on the road! This kid tried to turn around about 20 yards past my drive, which is steeper and has even less space (if that is possible) and rocks to stop you driving into the hedge/ killing VW Polos.

JD™ Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 As I mentioned, good week. Probably went a bit far on the 'feeling good' bit of that last night... Luckily lady sent me out for food for tonight, which meant an accidental hair of the dog (or two). Feeling much more human now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Ah it's been a good day, new bargain rear mech turned up and I've got 2 bottles of Old Crafty Hen in the fridge. I only need 2 as I'm a lightweight and that shit is rocket fuel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Watching the boxing with my old man. Feels like old times, remembering my qualifications in boxing training to pretend I still know what I'm talking about... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 6 years after setting my last sidehop record, I've finally done it again Most limiting factor is still my mind although constantly pushing myself lately has improved this a lot. I'm sure I could go 5cm bigger if I didn't second guess myself all the time and think "nah, this won't happen" while already on the rear wheel.

Going up to chainstay/down to chainstay a bunch of times helps me when trying my absolute biggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 How big? Going up to chainstay/down to chainstay a bunch of times helps me when trying my absolute biggest. 110cm which I guess by this forums' standards is small but by my standards it's f**king massive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 110cm which I guess by this forums' standards is small but by my standards it's f**king massive That's not small try going up to pedal/stay on a wall that's like 130cm, you'll surprise yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would be a good bit of practice to get my brain "unlocked". Think I'll just get re-acquainted with the current record and then add 2cm as I go along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 I'm happy that I'm seeing a few people eating their words tonight. Words which they've stolen from the mouth of a gobby, ungracious, unclassy joke of a man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
