Didn't sleep as well as I'd have liked due to the RAGE of being woken up by freshers screaming outside my window at midnight. Which is bad enough, you say. But oh no, the reason they were shrieking was because they were jumping up and down. Let them jump you say! On MY CAR BONNET! The little s**ts. And they were all girls. You almost expect that from boys, but girls. In heels! RAH!

But anyway, yes, I therefore slept for less than a wanted and didn't go to the gym before work. Cycled in the horrible way and the lights were all in my favour today so it wasn't too bad.

C • on second thoughts... 4

Cycle back up to George Square for a bit of alpha screen action.

Whew. First weights session in a while and loaded them up as limbs were feeling pretty fresh. Good session, pushed a couple of the moves to failure and enjoyed being back in the gym. Did:

Cleans 35kg 4 x 5
Push press 30kg 4 x 5
Overhead squat 25kg 4 x 5
Pull down thingies 27.5kg 3 x 10
BB Roll outs 3 x 10

Think the old core will be aching tomorrow!

Cycle back to the lab.

Pretty gentle cycle home the George Street way. By the time I got home at 6.30 I was knackered, still a bit stuffy and really hungry, so decided to miss the recovery run and get some food inside me. Then went to meet Nikki for a good gossip at the Elephant House and some illicit chocolate brownie. Mmm/

Cycling to the Elephant House and then back via the Meadows and Tesco in a slightly circuitous fashion. Now not tired and it's bedtime. Pah. I can hear the Freshers on the move again...if only I had an air rifle...
