Yeah shouldn't moan, just need less hours at work which is proving to be hard to get in place. The lunchtime meeting tomorrow is somewhere I'm really keen to work so will have a chat. They've got me doing some work for them already, hoping there may be something more permanent.

Race sounds good SW but a bit too far away for me. If MM came, she can cheer you on from her SUP. :)

Treacle's race sounds a bit more 700-like, hills and mud is always good fun.

Hills and mud is probably what dipps and I are in for in November. :)

Oh no Carp. :(

Nice work Som. :)

40% rain chance on BBC website grew to 100% for the hour I went out to run. Saw not a living being, apart from some wading birds annoyed at my headtorch beam. Tide coming in, and late night swim sessions in swing at the baths. If I'd jumped the pool, I'd have been no more soaked than I was when I got home! :)

That sounds lovely switts.

I'm feeling better as long as I don't eat anything, but had to call in sick at work because of the 48 hour rule, so I'm stressed about that (I've already breached the absence standard and had a meeti g about it).

Morning all! Hope you're better today Carp xx

Think I'll try a gentle jog today. Everywhere will be soaking wet though, it really hammered down overnight.

Morning 700ers heart
Carp you know and they know there is a chain between too much overtime and stress, and sustaining normal hours. Thank you for everything you do but you can’t help being sick (())
