    Club Bashes are a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and have a laugh on the slopes in the UK and abroad.

Volleyball you say, will it be beach volleyball and will you be wearing army dog tags and high fiving in a very homoerotic way, will we have to start calling you Goose from now on?

I'm happy for Dunx...

I'm happy as I managed to schedule myself a physio and dentist appointment for this week (finally sorting my admin out!).
And finally I'm happy because in 9 days time I will be flying to Whistler with 9 friends...

well i'm happy as the weekend was just a fun packed 2days
consisting of a bit of archery in my back garden
and hacking around on my supermoto in the sun, my rolling stoppies are looking good Razz
first ones of the year, although all the other bikers out seemed to be a bit boring

just 3 weeks till my trip to andorra and before that my GF is taking me to
a CAS frestyle night ,


life is good

I am also happy because on the way to work I stopped to let several people through and *every* one of them waved a thank you. Tiny things.

I'm happy because i'm sitting looking at the photo's of my fantastic week in Chamonix !!! I'm happier because i arrived back in one piece, which is a miracle after looking at the kickers and tricks we were attempting .

I'm also happy that everyone else is happy ! and...i'm having pie and chips tonight, might even throw in some mushy pea's... :-)
Now I've got my lovely snowboard I'm as happy as a Frenchman who's invented a pair of self-removing trousers.

I'm happy today because I've just scoffed a box of Cadbury's Creme Eggs, wrote some good Python code at work today, and burst out laughing this morning when some random guy walked up to me and called me a f**king c**t before walking off. I've been giggling about it all morning. How random.
