I’m so jealous, the weather here is grim. Summers approaching though might get 2-3 good days, haha

It sort of worked out alright, was flat out with work anyway, had a staff meeting one night, then first aid another, and all sorts of other shit going on. A few days missed is no biggie

Btw all you guys downunder seems to be getting sick, isn’t it summer down there?
It should be us poor souls with the cold, the rain, the wind, the no sun stuff that’s supposed to be ill.

Still smashing it Luc. Seems there’s a cold going around T nation… I pinpoint it to either simo or hog as the culprit - the source of the plague spreading lol. Keep killing it big fella!
