Plans for the weekend?

[Rhythm Thief]

Band practise tomorrow, then the girlfriend's parents are coming over for lunch on Sunday. Her dad collects vintage bicycles so I've usually got plenty to talk about!
I might try and get out on the bike at some point - I really enjoyed it last weekend.

Just started a short story, can't think of a name for it, but, a bit like Brief Encounter (what a film), it is about a doomed relationship that happens on a train journey.

Short Meeting?
Last train to Palookaville

talking of writing... i had some great ideas for poems last night. i thought about getting up (i was trying to sleep at the time), but figured i'd remember them

i haven't.

well, i remember parts of them, but not the really good lines.

since the local short story competition stopped i haven't written anything and i never wrote poetry before, so it was most odd.

I always get up when I have good writing ideas, they have to be thoroughly expunged, or I definitely won't sleep (which I possibly won't anyway). Anyway, get writing and post them up here. I like it when people post their scribblings up here, as we're quite a talented bunch really.

i might have to have a notebook and pen next to the bed.

the local competition was always a good excuse to write. it was for 500 word stories and the 'winners' would be published in a book - it was organised by the local Borders and Uni. i got a few in the books, but didn't get any prizes.

Moving flat!
Well, emptying 'my' flat and moving er, nowhere! Leaving almost everything in the basement here, inc. my two bikes, as I return to England on Tuesday for a week or two, then head for Asia for 4-6 weeks.
Need to find somewhere to live in Stockholm IF I am coming back.
Otherwise Norway or Holland look interesting.

Well that's one thing done, took the Sirrus (flat bar road bike) on a club run. Thought it was a bit of mistake when I got dropped after 25 mls, when I got home however, I was covered in muck , so I'm glad I never took the good bike.

just back from an enjoyable day at Wetlands... well, apart from the loss of feeling in my toes and feet... it was freeeeezing. the ponds were icing up during the day. the mix of chilly easterly wind hitting freezing water meant the icicles went right through you.

still, nice coffee and cake at the end of the day.

tomorrow i will be thawing out.

off to download pictures now

I'm just back from a nice mtb ride in the peaks, it was cold and icy but great fun.
