It came!!!!

Here it is, my new bike...




Ok, so it is missing a front brake... and pedals... and it needs a new chain... and a new back tyre...


...but for 99p, am I really going to complain :D



(N.B. Marmite in picture purely for the londoners - apparently, cheers Kimble :p)


Update:
Now has pedals, I fixed the chain all by my little self ;) so all I need now are my front brakes and a backtyre then I'm all set for post-exam bike trips to the beach!

A new year..

So here we are, a new year.
I wonder if it will be as eventful as last year, or atleast be a happier one.

So here they are the traditional new years resolutions that we all think up and swear that this year we will in fact do them and stick to them...

...bollocks...

...but here we go, it will be interesting how many of these are still important to me this time next year.
  • Be more decisive
  • Be more healthy
  • Be more organised
  • Be more careful with money
  • Make more time for those around me
  • Stop caring about friends lost, because if they can't be bothered to go against the crowd then they are better off ruining someone elses life
and most importantly,
  • to follow my own advice
So, now it is my turn and this is why I am saving up the money to go on the trip of a lifetime, something that is important to me. At the end of my degree before I get stuck in the boring mundane world of mortgages and work I am going travelling until I either a) run out of money or b) get bored - which lets face it isn't going to happen.

So this year lots of resolutions to break and to keep.

Lets see where it takes us,

Come on world, I am ready.
