Work Christmas meal
Every year the Peterborough Greyhound restaurant and kitchen staff go out for a Christmas meal. Believe it or not. It’s only the second time I have ever been. Which is bad since I have been working at the dog track since 2003. The last time I went was 2009.
I mainly went this year, since every year I hear so many stories about all the things that happened. So this year, I wanted to see it for myself :).
It was a good night, other than one of the young ones being sick all over this table! So can’t see the Ibrahimi Restaurant having us back again next year!

Renewed my photo driving licence
I had a busy, busy day and still had the time to fit in not one but two cycles 🙂 The first cycle was only a short 3.98 mile around trip to the local shop in next village to get some food and sugar. The the second cycle was a longer cycle of 14.92 miles. When I cycled to Stamford to pay money into the bank, then it was off to Post Office, to renew my photo driving licence., which cost £24.50, which also included them taken the photo and sending it straight to the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency).
Once back home, I had my lunch then watch Neighbours on Channel 5. Yes I still love watching that soap, I think I will be watching it, till the die or they stop making it.
Then in evening I was working at the Peterborough Greyhound Stadium, which was a fun evening. Then it off off back home, to type this up, then watch Waterloo Road.
Thursday – 11th November 2010
Opps not done a update in a good while. Not really done much at all today, did get some good news about job at the Peterborough Greyhound Stadium, which means a bit more money 🙂 Which I am going to put towards doing End to End cycle, which I am hoping to do again, August next year. The other main news of the day is that I watched a new DVD called Tan Lines, that turned up from amazon.co.uk. It was a good film, still not really too sure what to make of it, so need to watch it again.
Saturday – 18th September 2010
The main thing I have been doing is fully sorting out the cycle route for the Ride for Ryder Peterborough, which I am doing tomorrow with a group of lads from the Peterborough Greyhound Stadium. Well more like just copying the route off the Ride for Ryder Peterborough website, which I needed to do. So I could then copy the route over to my Garmin Edge 705 GPS 🙂
