....to my dog.

Unfortunately for him he took one for the team today, fortunately for me I lied through my teeth to save my skin.

When I got back in late last night I was soaked, after drying the bike I decided to tinker in the warmth of the conservatory. This is a big no no (apparently). When I got in from work today I was confronted with the prospect of having the crown Jewels chewed off because of the black stuff all on the floor. I shamelessly blamed my dog for walking in something last night and treading it all in:giggle:

I couldn't see it last night but there's all tiny specs of black wax lube all on the floor. It was pig to shift.

I've told him to not do it again:whistle:

I think my wife knows but can't prove anything, my dog just keeps giving me the evils:whistle:

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

I have learnt a lesson though, always blame the dog!


Have I learnt a lesson about tinkering with my bike in the conservatory?
Nah! I'd do it again tonight if I thought I wouldn't get caught!

If I thought it wouldn't get me caught out, I'd bring up the rule about not having the bike in there anyway. I don't remember this rule , it must be a woman thing.

That wax lube is a bugger for dropping off over the floor. Change the lube if you are going to do it again. The excuse won't work twice.
Glad to see you don't wear the trousers either :biggrin:

Bike was upside down on the kitchen worktop, I relubed the chain, and then spun the pedals. Managed to get a lovely line of black wax lube across the kitchen ceiling. :whistle:

Buy a house with higher ceilings.....

It wouldn't save me from my culinary disaster which painted the kitchen ceiling with half a pound of molten lard though. The ceiling is awaiting a full clean and repaint.
