Leeds City Centre Parking

I rarely drive into Leeds in the middle of working day.  I knew it would be horrendous, but I made a mistake and it was worse.  I could have stopped at NCP, but I was shocked at the price, even thought I would claim it back, it was still ridiculous.  Then I had to drive around, got lost, tried to park somewhere else that was full.  That's why I like a motorcycle!

Benchmarking

I finished the BS7671 training course and went for the exam.  I got only 88%, which is going to be a benchmark for my colleagues.  I think it is a good benchmark, it is a reputable mark, and it is achievable target by others, let's hope this give them some motivation.

HIIT Exhaustion

I listened to Joe Wicks in a podcast, and I thought his HIIT would be something Sarah wants.  I did one round of HIIT and I threw in the towel, I blame it on the cold.  Sarah did 3 rounds. she did well!

Leicester Comedy Festival - Laura Monmoth LGBTQXZ

We went to see Laura Monmoth in Leicester Comedy Festival.  We saw the title and thought we would give it a shot.  It was a small audience, and she said it was a lot more than when she was in Edinburgh.  The audiences were over 90% white and straight, very not a representative sample size of this city.  It was interesting, I was a bit peeved off when she said a Korean peeping Tom sign was from Hong Kong.  Sarah paid into the bucket, and I said "Good Job", we have done our community service.

Leicester Comedy Festival - Alfie Moore

We went to see Alfie Moore in Leicester Comedy Festival.  The audiences were over 95% white and straight, very not a representative sample size of this city.  He didn't do his fair cop thing, he just told a story, which was interesting.  I shook his hand on my way out.

Hovis Granary Flour

Sarah has always wanted to bake the granary bread at home.  Since I was aiming to get the Tesco offer,  I was filling the order to £50, I added the flour into the basket.

The bread came out very soft, too soft, otherwise it was nice.  Two more loaves to go.
