[Flickr] Flying West
Sep 28th
Dashed off the bus after seeing this sunset from the top desk, grabbed the camera and back out to the Thames for just one shot before the last rays of the sun disappeared.
Got lucky with the plane streaking across the sky right in the center of the frame… I reckon it’s turning on approach for Heathrow.

Back on the bike
Jan 18th
Literally!!!
The last post on the blog was in July! Yes JULY! And now it’s January… and I’ve finally, FINALLY used the bike! Seemed rude not to post about it.
Woke up early today, cycled to the climbing wall in Mile End, longer than I’d realised, after a hard climb I cycled to Linus’ flat along the canal, had lunch and then cycled home. Google tells me that it’s 3 miles there and 3.5 back, so 6.5 miles!!! Combined with a long trip to the gym explains why I’m shattered and aching tonight.
Yet again the weekend has disappeared far too quickly, now got to do some work, yes WORK, settle down to watch MOTD2 and then sleep! Another week awaits…
