welcome to winter everyone!

or at least it feels that way, its been my day off from work today, and so far i have spent most of the afternoon sat in front of the telly as it has been absolutely throwing it down, apart from this morning i have managed to get my mountain bike that my brother donated to me a little bit closser to being up and running (watch out alberto contador wait until i have a road racer). been feeling a bit run down recently as i have been doing a high quantity of training, like the 10k time trial i did on saturday evening up and down the length of portishead esplanade, 25 x 400 meters. it was mentally tough as i never felt as though i was going any where. 41:28 was my time so i'm still some way off my best which is a rather depressing thought but i always said i would take some time to get back to my best and it going to be a long hard road back to recovery. i've acquired someone elses place in the bristol half marathon this weekend butthat will probably just be treated as a long run.

the situation at work is not helping me either with more strikes this week (portisheads out on friday). although this has been nothing like as bitter as the last dispute two years ago when there were regular rows between scabs and strikers and my grievance against kelly my manager has caused tension between us with her not speaking to me, accusing me of lying behind my back (shes a fine one to talk about that as i now know that she's lied to me about several things to try and justify her lack of respect for me, sexism and unprofessionalism) on my grievance form and generally being a two faced devious little bitch. just wait until my hearing i will tear her to pieces, not physically i hasten to add, but i am determined that i am going to win this hearing
