This post is dedicated to Megan who reminded me I hadn’t added a new entry to my “blog” for a while. I respectfully dispute that this is even a blog but anyway, this one is for you Megan.

The first thing I should say is that this should have been more interesting than it is. On Wednesday evening – the last night I was in Dumfries – I went unicycling in Mabie. My mum and dad were with me and the plan was for my dad to follow me down the White Route on his bike wearing the helmet camera. Near the bottom the camera bleeped and turned off. Low battery. No problem I thought, we’ll just change the battery. Unfortunately my dad left the battery in the car. It turns out the footage we did get wasn’t so good as dad struggled to stay at the same speed as me. It’s hard to focus on getting a good picture and not fall off! So it looks like we’ll be going back and trying that again. The White Route is quite challenging, covered in loose rocks and some small drop-offs.

Tonight I will be adding placeholders for new content on the website so I know what has still to be done. Exams will start soon so work will still be slow but come the summer holidays things should speed up a bit.

In other news I picked up a Radline Fang R/C car at a car boot sale for £4 and I’ve been playing with that. Inside it’s plenty fast enough but it could do with some mods and upgrades for outdoors. Still a good little buy at that price. It’s easy to carry around it’s so small.

Marathon training continued in the Easter Holidays. The photo above was taken by James at one of my many times I used his house as a water stop. The editing is not quite there yet, he needs some practice but the general idea is sound.

Tomorrow promises to be a good day as I am visiting Cruachan Power station with the imeche. The early start (I’ll be getting up about 6:10am) is not welcome but the rest of the day should be good! I’ll post some photos of it.

I felt like posting my favourite cartoon clip ever. I must have watched this over 20 times and I *still* laugh out loud!
