    Its nearly payday and I have a (very) limited window of opprtuntity to spend some folding on a tea at PY (other more child freindly cafes are avaliable) before the other half empties the account on frivalous stuff like food, mortgage, bills etc....

    Anyone fancy a brew at a cafe on Friday morning before Winter sets in for ... er Winter...

    I could be persuaded, might be my last for a while as it looks like I'm going on to a compressed week soon, (and 0700 starts at work :-o )

    As friendly and relaxed a group of folks as you could expect to blether to.

    I am hopeless with names, even with the surfiet of Daves dropping terms from the equation, so could someone be lovely and remind me who I met?

    Sorry to have missed the Daves but had a nice chat with Roibeard and Morningsider.

    Had hoped to hear how tbc's tandem ride went.....

    @uberuce - Blue t-shirt, pair of yellow ortliebs and a squash racket. Not as stylish as Min.

    Sat on blethering given proximity to work, until I was late...

    Oops,

    Robert

    Is there a cafe on the Radical Road? Evening better for me having to commute in from darkest (coaldust) Fife.

    An evening meet would be good - it's hard to drag yourself off to work at 0800 when there's more cake, coffee & chat to be had.

    Me = poor attempt at beard ( was well impressed with ?Uberuce's, would have liked time to get tips, as have decided to grow mine until Christmas - I forget why now). Otherwise non-descript in all black on black Cannondale.

    Cycle in from PY to work in Leith made a big difference to usual ride along the prom. Much more of a jostle and I needed my wits about me ( had an LRT bus pull dangerously out on me - most unusual) - reminded me of riding in London many years ago.
