Once when I was in the library, I found a book entitled How to be a Good Blogger (or something like that). I didn't take it out, as I felt that would be crossing a line I didn't want to cross, but I did flick through it. The first page said 'Only blog when you have something interesting to say'. I have taken this as my blogging mantra and have tried to blog accordingly. However, today I have to blog because an event happened this morning which is going to change my life forever.
My exercise bike arrived.
Realising that I may have piled on the pounds over recent months, I decided to get me an exercise bike. According to the box, I'm going to have a 'beautiful body' fairly soon, so you can see why I'm excited. I must admit that I was a little embarrassed when given the box this morning by the delivery man, knowing he was thinking 'Here's another idiot jumping on the fitness bandwagon in January. As if this is even going to be used by the time February comes around.' I know he was thinking this because his smile told me so.
But just you wait Mr Delivery Van Man. Soon, I'm going to be looking like one of these guys:
(One of the male ones, hopefully. If I start to look like one of the others, I'll be demanding my refund!) I know it's unusual for an exercise bike to turn someone into one of these, but I figure that if I pedal really, really hard...
Other than my new fitness regime, I don't have much else to report - other than I'm struggling to find a topic for my PhD... Any suggestions, let me know!
Now, once I've figured out how to put my bike together, I'll be on my way! (while still in my room. Ingenious.)
And, fear not, I have no plans to start wearing lycra anytime soon.

Vergiss nicht, einen Helm zu tragen, denn
leider habe ich Schwierigkeiten, früh morgens ins Krankenhaus nach Southend zu kommen ;)
And I want a picture of you on your bike. Soon!
Cheers
Me :)
P.S. Danke für Thomas, die Dampflok! Oberammergaugeil :) Die Karte hat einen Ehrenplatz am Kühlschrank bekommen.
Just out of curiousity, how much was this so called exercise bike? It's just that I was considering joining the gym, but if a bike is cheaper... Also, is there some kind of guarantee on their claim, for example if you don't have a 'beautiful body' within 6 months would you get your money back? I really think that's worth looking into. Oh, and one more question. What name would you give yourself if you were a gladiator? I'd love to know...
Hi Johny, this is your lovly sister here!!
Hey, if you do end up using the bike you too could have boobs like the Gladiator boys!!! Hehehehe
Hope it works for you, I still wanna see photo evidence though (not of the boobs :p)
Love
Carline
Katie, Katie, Katie...
As if I've sat there and thought about what my Gladiator name would be.
Other than I have and it's Tornado.
How is your cycling going? Having fun?? Working good???
