So back to normality. Well kind of. A strong feeling of the honeymoon is fast coming to an end. I am starting to trawl the web for jobs, my CV is being sent far and wide. With a little bit of luck some one will take pity on me and offer me a job!
Lara and I are in a small panic as we are off to Spain tonight to go to Valencia for the 'Tomatina'. It is the conclusion of the Chronicles of the wedding dress. For anyone who does not know what it is, it is the huge tomato fight they have over there. This will right off the dress, it's final curtain call. So before we do this we have to complete the two other sections of the chronicle - Mtb'ing and climbing.
We went out last night to the DH track behind our house to take the pictures, we scoped out the good places for pictures and thought it would be a picture fest having many attempts to get it right.
Neither of us were quite prepared for how difficult it is to ride a DH bike in a massive meringue (not that i was the one wearing the dress). The dam thing managed to wrap and jam itself in every part possible, the wheels, the disc brakes, around the cranks. It was a nightmare and Lara deemed it impossible.
I was not giving up that easily, every time she set of the bike woudl come to a holt in 2ms due to the dress jamming in the bike. I spent 5 minutes trying to tidy the dress so not to snag. We had one go at it to take the picture as this was trashing the dress.

Thankfully it came out. So tonight we are off to Spain. We have to find a spot to take the climbing pictures in the dress before Wednesday as after that the dress will be in a wheelie bin.
We will be back in a week, till then - pass the word around there is a brilliant planner looking for work! ;)
