I've started cycling to work. It's only about 4 miles but it's properly tiring me out. Goes to show how long my bike's been out of use. Still, it'll get me in better shape and it's good for the environment, so everyone's a winner. I'm just dreading the day when I have to cycle in the pouring rain or freezing cold, but not to worry, it'll be Winter soon so I'm sure I'll find out soon enough what that's like!

My sermon the other week went well. I'll post an mp3 of it as soon as I get the tape sent to me.

Alison has also started her new teacher training GTP thing. So far she's just been observing lessons, though I think she was going to take a register today, and tomorrow I think she's going to do a bit of teaching. It's all good so far.

That's about it really. Perhaps some day soon I'll be more energetic and able to write something more interesting... Or perhaps I'll just take a bunch of pictures of Chloe the expanding kitten and post them up here. See you soon.

I've also been inspired to venture into the garage and unearth my old bike. It was actually fairly tricky. I managed to locate the bike lock keys, but moving all the junk that was concealing it was heavy going. Also, it seems someone decided to store all the bike helmets upside down, so much spider-removal was required.
Considering I haven't ridden it in five years it wasn't bad. All I had to do was pump up the tyres and it was useable, although my body informs me that I should really adjust the seat, and ouch maybe get a new seat cushion...

I'm planning to use it for my evening classes; the bus gets expensive when you're on the dole anyway, and I don't fancy the three mile walk now it's getting miserable.

Just remember to take a plastic bag and fasten it over the bike seat if you don't have a covered cycle rack! There are too many times in the past when I've come out after a rainstorm and then had to cycle back on a soaking wet seat.

Yeah, so far I've avoided the rain, though I'm not looking forward to it when it inevitably happens. It was freezing this morning, which was hard work too - and it's only September! Joy! Time to go shopping and get some fancy cycling top I think.

Just by the by on bike locks, I was amazed that I could still remember the combination for my lock after about 6 years of not using it. Weird the things that stick in your mind...
