It’s been two days of conflicting emotions - on one hand - way-hey! Lot’s more people donating to Everyman at JustGiving which is fantastic - in particular I want to mention the partners at Paul Davies and Partners (who Stace work for) who have donated a fantastic £200!

Paul Davies and Partners do quite a lot of charity work, and they’re a big company… international architects and are in the top 100 companies to work for - a pretty cool company who’ve given us a pretty cool £200 to stamp out male cancers.

The bike has been serviced and all went well until 4pm yesterday when I tried to start the bike… then it was all a bit Arghhhhh!

Bike simply refused to start even though there appeared to be sufficient power for lights etc - I went through the alarm, and ignition circuits, checked the fuses - you name it I checked it. In the end I took a gamble and dashed up to Honda in Luton to buy a brand new battery (£49), which also cost me a parking ticket (£65), but when I got home, charged the battery and put it on the bike - all was well and it fired up (priceless).

So today is paperwork and last minute shopping - hopefully it’ll be a lot more way-hey - my fingers are crossed! :-)
