1/2 an hour before I indented to leave, but by the time the clothing got sorted, then changed, then various gloves tried on, and the sun visor removed from the lid, the remaining visor cleaned, change of boots, the wrong socks...anyway, it took so long to get out of the house that the breakfast location was almost the lunch location.willian wrote:1/2 an hour before leavingDave wrote:you did have the offer to joinwillian wrote:Awesome route :)
and to think, I thought I would have been sharper off the mark bearing in mind I bike to work most days

Getting two wife's out of the house is a chore after all, how long was your better half waiting on the bike for you to get your sh!t together?Dave wrote:1/2 an hour before I indented to leave, but by the time the clothing got sorted, then changed, then various gloves tried on, and the sun visor removed from the lid, the remaining visor cleaned, change of boots, the wrong socks...anyway, it took so long to get out of the house that the breakfast location was almost the lunch location.willian wrote:1/2 an hour before leavingDave wrote:you did have the offer to joinwillian wrote:Awesome route :)
