so i tried to go big corporate (again) and it seems this time they even saw thru my suit and my old boys tie. or maybe i was given away by the glint in my eye that came from riding in the rain for nine hours the day before. ill be honest, i thought of quitting the messenger dream more than 9 times the day before the big interview cos it was cold, frikken cold, and still early days in the european winter. but when i arrived back to the office at the end of the day and saw the looks on the faces of guys from cold countries like finland and um well, the netherlands, it became a little clearer to me what had just happened. this was one of those special days, u dont get many of them in a year. they suck. normally when its that cold, it doesnt rain so much here. on tuesday it was cold and it rained all day long. then there was friday, blue skies and sunshine, no wind, it was good not to be stuck in an office again. oh, and to be paid to ride a bike!



i have new found respect for the cold and the wet. luckily the boss gives us good clothes to wear. now all i need is some shoe covers and i can test my theory that winter is worse when ur indoors...
