Must be mad!

I must say Steve was no surprise to me at all, I knew he would do well :t:

 

The surprise Diamonds for me has to be Stuart Robson, looks like he is back to his best again just when I thought he might be on the decline after 2013 :D

Neither now, poor decision making on my part.

Oh well, Scottish cup semi on the telly, Liverpool v City on the iPad, BSF on the lap top, beer on the table.

Big breakfast still in the belly.

Masters tonight!

Hoover and ironing board are safe.

Will need to give the gym a miss, that's 10 years in a row.

 

 

Update: Hold that thought.

 

The bliss lasted all of 20 minutes.

She who must be obeyed wants a new mirror put up in the bathroom.

I hate DIY!

Anyone got any change for the swearbox? I'll need at least a fiver.

See you all in two hours ..... minus a thumb.

Kevin Doolan has been a bit disappointing for me,maybe still getting race fit.

Meaning as a professional sportsman he was under prepared for the start of the season.

As far as I'm aware Doolan is a professional rider, he doesn't have employment outside speedway, therefore IMO he had all winter to get himself fit with gym work and ample time to get track time at Leicester, Scunthorpe or Northside when they had track days. Take his teammate Mr Vissing, its well known he hired a track to get in the required practice, and it shows with the start he has made to the season.

Well that's the mirror on the wall and SKY's pre-season programme on't telly. Now where did I leave that Stella?

No electric wires drilled through ... miracle!

 

I'll give the mirror about a week before it's in pieces on the gludgy floor.

 

Marriage is also intact, despite my divorce threats ... no thanks to Ikea's best efforts to drive me nuts with their useless instructions.

Do my glasses look like a microscope?

Why do you provide instructions on an A4 size piece of paper, with the writing in 2mm font size?

Think green and save a tree you Scandinavian schmucks!

 

I opened up the packaging to find screws and rawplugs are not provided.

Why in Shane Parker's name don't they tell you that on the outside of the pack!!

Oh and by the way Mr Ikea, I bought a mirror, not a set of shelves!

 

In my therapeutic DIY session there is one thing I have figured out though.

You know those stupid names Ikea give their products, like ...

 

Bigboobiez

Whanka

Puke

Todger

Knobcheez

Phart

 

... these are actually swear words in Swedish or where ever it is Ikea pays its taxes.

 

Very useful when you have a young kid in the house and you discover you've drilled four 10mm holes in the wrong part of the wall.

Cheers Sven!

I don't know what you expected from him - he's been in decline for a few years now and nowhere near the force he used to be when he was at Kings Lynn. With him riding at number 1 too, was never going to help his cause.

I wasn't expecting too much as I agree his career is in decline but what I have seen up to date has been poor IMO.Like I say maybe not into the swing of things yet.

Agree with you that so far Doolan has been poor, but I stick to what I posted earlier. It has to be hoped that you are right and there`s an up turn in his performances once he ups his race fitness.
