current trends

Part of me wants to rant on about how annoying it is when it rains CONSTANTLY for a week, and by utilizing a slew of available data, mouth off at how these trends are likely to continue if not worsen for the next 50 years, at least. However i just drove 1 pitiful mile in the driving rain to train at Neds house, a journey which i should be cycling, so to save on the hypocrisy i'll save such rants until my own house is in order.
for anyone interested in a brief glance at recent UK climate trends:

but for now lets just sit back and enjoy a badly uploaded (suffering from some encoding/compression issues i think) of Ben in the Frankenjura.

voll kraft voraus

first off lets smooth things over with a wideo off wimeo.



Since we've been back we've been trying to organise ourselves, and we're beginning to get on top of things, hopefully we can stock some shops in coming weeks as well as get some good R&D done on a few things which are still stuck in the virtual CAD domain. Ned's been in Leicester helping out and pratting about with bits of aluminium. As well as project scouting etc.

end of days

Right, Ned's back in Blighty tomorrow night and is currently trying Zerberus as it has rained pretty convincingly for the last 3 days so it's pretty much the only thing dry that he wants to try. Hopefully by the 10th this should correspond to us being better at shipping stuff out as he can get his wobble buns down to Leicester to ship out some more fine pieces o' timber (tulip wood). Ned briefly came out of "retirement" last week and did 2 rarely repeated 8a+s in a day here. Violation and Fueurzange, which was rather spiffing. It was on halloween too and there'll be a retrospective video uploaded when i get home. But for now you'll just have to use your imaginations. We've been sampling some fine beers over the past 48hours too and it can be confirmed with many a hiccup that oberailsfeld "Heldbrau" (hero-brew) is officially 'da shit' with the dark beer basically being liquid caramel. Bring on the plauzen (sp?) I haven't been upto too much except fingerrecoveryfying which is an intricate game of head vs body. Anyway enough waffle as the locals are starting to look at me funny (am parked in a non too inconspicuous place).
