Bargain! plus the f2.8 is useful.

I'd have both of those lenses. I'll settle for my 70-300 G OSS for now though, it does what I want it to.

So I thought to myself 'It'll be fine. Take the front wheel off and it'll fit in the boot...' It did not. Took the rear wheel off too... nope. Stuffed it onto the back seat and ordered a bike rack to be delivered at my destination.
Then today the replacement of my wardrobe with things that fit continued. New suit... again... 6 months ago was a 50" chest and 44" waist. 2 months ago I bought a 46" and 40". Today is a 44" Slim and 36" trousers... and a new coat and jumper.
It's an odd feeling not automatically buying the largest of whatever they have.

Bit too peanut buttery for me, needs more Marmite
Nothing exciting but curiosity got the better of me, haven't tried it yet. Will have a nom later.
Soldato
Needs more of both.
PB+Marmite is my go-to afternoon snack! On toast helps spread it all.

Fair play to you Andy, that's a great achievement. Not cheap having to get a whole new wardrobe I'm guessing but can't put a price on health I guess.
Do you have a target in mind?

Final parts 
And a game
And a game

Thanks. Well, my target keeps moving. Initially it was to get to 19st (started in March at 21st 8) When that came so quick, target was 18st... then 17st... I just hit 16st, which I'm fine with. I stopped trying quite so hard at 16st 8 tbh, but it has kept coming off, just a bit slower. I don't think I've weighed this since my early 20's. I've probably never been as fit as I am now...
He mentioned he wants diamond but it's a fair way to go from silver.
(sorry Andy)
Cheeky!

Diet alone or are you on an exercise rampage
Soldato
Both. Initially I was on 1,700 calories and cycling, then I gradually upped calories to 2,500 am I now, but I'm cycling more. Sometimes twice a day!

Amazing stuff Andy, but next time can we make sure all items are placed on the wall?
Thanks
Thanks
Soldato
Ha ha, sorry. I need some kind of portable version of the wall I can take with me wherever I go.

Just stick a couple of bricks in the boot

Incredible transformation Andy. Now you just need to ditch the paedo specs and facial hair

Coffee.
1KG of whole beans from Triple Co Roast based in Bristol.
Also thought I'd Pact's sub as they are/were giving you a V60 for subscribing...have to say the idea is good but I feel the coffee is a bit, well, meh. But it was £7 to get a Hario V60 and 250g ground coffee so that's acceptable I guess (V60 is something like £15+ normally).

Nice. They were who we had last at the office, now on to True Start, pretty decent so far.
They were our first order because when we bought a bean to cup machine we contacted all the roasters and got about 20kg of free samples.

They are good yeah, a friend runs a coffee shop and she switched to them for the espresso based drinks. I've not tried their filter beans but now I can. All roasted on the 5th too so nice and fresh...not so fresh by the time I drink the final bag in a few weeks but still.

Would I know the coffee shop?
