Some of us colonials read English Lit and have managed to learn real English, even if we can't pronounce it properly. :D I mean, Worcestershire has only 3 syllables? What's with that? St. John? I swear it has a "T" in there. :)

LOL - when we first got here one of the teachers asked my then five year old if he wanted to go potty. He got really excited because with the accent he thought she was saying paaaarrrtty. Disappointment quickly set in when he realized she was only offering a trip to the Loo. :D :D

GREAT! Its a Quote from Terry Pratchett's "jingo(famous uk author of the discworld series) - where he discusses the origins of the famous quote - and how he must of worked his way through the "V" words to get it and one of the lines is
"Veni, Vidi, Vomiti"= I came, I saw, I thew up.
The Other (more approprite) is:
"Veni, Vino, Vomiti"= I came, I drank wine, I thew up.
Where can I get one!!!!!
"
Now i know what to get him for christmas...

A few months ago I ordered their jersey and a water bottle. I really like them! They also sent a matching cycling cap and some temporary tattoos. The envelope I received in the mail was addressed by hand to "Komrade Cari". The guy doesn't even use a postage meter. I think it's pretty cool.

The team jersey is bright red like deoxygenanted blood, with drawings of red blood cells all over it. Inside the center pocket it says:

KOMRADE!
WHY LOOK HERE?
YOUR DESTINY
AWAITS YOU
IN (sic) THE ROAD!

I hope all of you who got the jersey like it lots and wear it proudly. :)

Saludos,

~Cari

Rats, no smalls or mediums left in the womens jerseys!

As to venting about work, I say have at it!! We all have bad days---if it isn't the deadlines, it's the politics or more often than not, OTHER PEOPLE (be they students, bosses, "customers," coworkers). At the risk of sounding like a dinosaur, I would love to be a stay-at-home wife and spend my days riding my bike, hiking, reading, volunteering, playing with my golden retrievers, etc. I've been a "professional" for 18 years, and am counting down the 13 years and two months I have left until I can retire at full pension. :cool: I like my job and my paycheck, but my outside interests are how I'd much rather spend my time.

Ooops sorry mickchick I got the last medium they had. You should email them though maybe if they have enough interest they will get some more womens jerseys.

Im with you on the outside interests before I started cycling I was thinking of returning to work when my kids were all at school. Now I have been bitten by the cycling bug I just think who needs work when I will be able to ride every day. Yipee now I just have to get my youngest off to school and my dream will be realized. :D
