Found my pager from the 90s…

While giving my room a clean out the other day, I found I still had a pager. Think I got it around 97/98 so around the same time this website first went live. I can’t believe that after all, this time it still works :). So if anyone wants to page me, yes page me! The pager number is: 07623 199352. Since it’s a pager, you need to ring that number to leave a message, which they then in turn send to the pager :).

Please, please page me!! It will make me, so, so happy!!

UPDATE: Just found out I got the pager on Thursday, 3rd April 1997 from Argos in Stirling for £89.99.

I am feeling better :)

If you follow me on Facebook and Twitter. You will know I have been feeling a bit crap since Saturday evening. I’ve had some cold/bug thing that is going around. But I am feeling a lot better today, still not 100%. So much better, I got even more photos of myself for you all to look at 🙂

New cycling gear is here!

My new Rabobank Cycling Team kit that I ordered from Wiggle on Wednesday turned on today. I am well pleased with it! Feel so nice on, can’t wait to get out cycling in it. Was hoping to later today, but it’s gone very, very windy again.

Here are the first ever photos of myself wearing it :).

New cycling gear on the way :)

I have just gone and spent £133.50 on some new cycling gear :). Been after some new gear for a while. So after asking people on facebook what I should get, lots of people said I should get the Rabobank team kit. Also lots of straight lads from work said I should get it. So that will be a first for me, having straight lads telling me what gear to get! Just hope I look half has good in it, as Theo Bos does :).
