Yesterday afternoon, outside the pub, my bike decided to do its usual trick and refuse to even turn over when I tried to start it. Luckily the pub is on a big hill, so with a little help from
stuartl I rolled down the hill and bump-started it.
Of course that had me worried that this morning was going to be a problem, as the hill outside my house is much less steep and I've failed to start it on that hill before. I didn't mess around getting up and got out to find it in the same state as before. Not to worry, I was expecting this. Before I got my helmet on I sat on the bike and stood it upright. After a couple more flicks of the switch the starter spluttered into life. I think it has something to do with showing it who's boss *grin*. I expect it will be fine for ages now. Very puzzlesome. It occasionally trips me up and makes me pay attention to it.. but it certainly makes a great euphemism ;)
On another note, this girl fascinates me..
On another another note, this girl makes me very happy :)
And finally, I found my headphones, so all the work I have to do today can be done to music! Hurrah!
