Managed to lose my glasses at Chester Zoo last week, so I've been wearing contacts all week.
Bought myself a new standing desk so I'm looking forward to that arriving. Hoping to get a new chair and walking pad too and get some steps in.
Also my new bike arrived (Trek FX 2 Hybrid), it's the first non-mountain bike that I've owned and can't believe how quick it is! I've only ridden it twice though so far as I'm really struggling to find the time to do anything lately.
Next on the news, Chimp is found wearing glasses and plotting surreal escape in Chester Zoo.
Ooh I have a fancy bike too, and it's fast but I just don't like riding it because it's got no mass! I need something with heft so that when I'm not on the up or down stroke the bike isn't seemingly pausing between strokes due to lack of inertia
(All in my head btw, the bike is faster than my old steel frame, but I just like the feel of the steeler more)
