True love and technology
Love is a funny thing.
It may be around the corner. At your local supermarket, the traffic lights, the meeting in the aisle.
If you don't jump on it when you come across it, you may struggle to find it again.
Take the distressing case of Justin.
Hi everyone,
I am trying to mobilise the mighty power of email (and the 6-degrees sorting house that comprises Damon's friends!) to reunite two sundered hearts.
Late on last Saturday night (on my way home from seeing The Rebelles at the East Brunwick Club) I dropped into the Retreat Hotel in Sydney Rd. There I met a (very tall) dreamgirl. We talked, we sparked, I asked her out to dinner, she gave me her name and number. I only realised after we'd parted that my phone had *not saved* the number. (May its wires be fried.)
So now I am rather distraught and seeking a 6-foot brunette dreamgirl named Sasha. A dreamgirl who may well think she is being dissed rather than sought.
She has dark straight shoulder length hair, a vibrant personality and a very classy look. Sasha was at the pub with her workmate Julie (or
Julia?) who apparently has seen me standing on South Kensington station in the past. Don't know whether Julie lives in Kensington though. Julie was about 5-foot-5-ish, auburn hair with a reddish/blondish tinge, bubbly personality with a big smile.
Sadly I don't have many more details than that, since it all happened in a merry awestruck blur of convivial banter, just before the pub closed.
If anyone can help, can you please get in touch with me? And if you see any 6-foot brunettes gazing forlornly into the distance or weeping brokenly into a handkerchief, hey, ask her name!
cheers :)
Justin
AND
My advice.
Old skool, Lover boy.
Write on a napkin, your black book, or if you are so smitten - engrain it to your memory.
I suppose love learns the hard way, and you certainly cannot buy love.
A 58cm sq Colnago Master Olympic DECOR may go a long way.
Check this out before NETWORK changes it.
Finally, more from Skid Vicious.
Thanks TS.
Have a great weekend.

Love and technology don't mix. There's something beautifully romantic about a girl writing her number down on the back of a drink coaster for you.
Sorry, but the only 6ft tall, brunette, 'dreamgirl' I know has big hands and a deep voice.

Andy, helmets? Couldn't agree more, sitting here in London with broken collarbone after having a hideous moment yesterday on my beautiful Colnago Master Olympic, with a 2 month old Deda (should read Dead) 100 stem which decided that at the crucial moment of braking from 30kmh, it would be a great idea to catastrophically fail and break, sending me over the bars with my shoulder and my head to break my fall. Shoulder broken, head fine.....'Nago (fortunately the Gods were shining) completely unscathed, except for the rear wheel in a BAD way after hitting the curb. 
The morale ? Wear your lid and CHECK YOUR HARDWARE.....oh and don't ever ignore a strange ping sound when riding on the flat 500m from the hill......

As for hardward, I dropped in on the infamous John K in Black Rock the other day, he has a similar incident to Andy, front wheel wasn't on properly, out it popped, over he went. He mentioned his neck had been sore for a month or so and just recovering. After telling him on Andy's plight, he might be thinking xrays are in order. The moral does seem simple then when it comes to helmets and checking your hardware!! |
