Trying a different direction... Sunday 6th September 2009, 8:02 PM
Its been so long since i wrote a blog, so thought id just add a little something here. Ive been up to a lot, Joining the gym, New phone, A small crash on my bike, out and about too. Its nice to have a speedy phone again, I invested into the iPhone 3GS and its not bad at all, the camera is great quality although, no flash, the movies are great quality and smooth, and overall pace of the phone is great. 3G and my network is a little patchy though, you can be in a static location sitting down somewhere and have full network with 3G, then all of a sudden it can be searching for a network, can be rather frustrating, conclusion; Edge, more coverage but slower, 3G fast but VERY patchy.
Ive been going to the gym, joined Fitness First and am putting on weight, going about 3-4 times a week and loving it! Paul should be joining at the end of the month so that's something to look forward to. Claire said she may join too so could be a very fun time! It been good going out and clubbing with Paul, Dee and Claire, and also Joobie, Claires room-mate, going to Fire, and last night Beyond, fun stuff!
Also had a minor crash on my bike recently, was merging between centre right lane to the left and managed to drive right into an island that separate the two lanes, although there was nothing on it, i failed to see it in darkness, drove into catapulting me off the bike, cracked the fairings, snapped the brake lever, bent and scraped the scraper bar, and finally ruined the front wheel, bursting the tyre and tearing the metal by a spoke.
Ebay is such a lifesaver, I got a new rim for £75 that i cleaned up. I then primered, painted, and lacquered the rim, and got the type and brake disc swapped over from a local company for a tenner and the other 3 parts i got off of ebay to for about £6-7 for the brake handle and scraper bar, sorted! i do need find someone that can repair fairings but considering the rim i did, I may have a shot at it myself...
