On yer bike

July 26th, 2010 Tom No comments

In the spirit of “little and often” a quick update to say that today I rode one of the new short hire bikes springing up all around London, including right outside our office. And it was ace.  I really think this is a good idea.  It’s like Streetcar for bikes.

Here is a picture of me on my bike.

It’s going to be interesting to see how this scheme changes the fabric of London.

Breakfast is for wimps

July 20th, 2010 Tom 1 comment

The past few weeks I’ve been starting my day with the most amazing power smoothies. For the recipe thanks must go to my personal trainer Rich. But I feel compelled to share: people of the Internet this is what you should be having each morning to get things off to the perfect start.

First up, purchase one of these little puppies from Argos.

Then this is what you put in it:
- 250g of Oats
- Banana
- Handfull of Blueberries
- Handful of Brazil Nuts
- Handful of Hazelnuts
- Handful of Pumpkin Seeds
- Spoon of smooth Peanut Butter
- One scoop of Protein Powder
- Tiny bit of Strawberry flavouring
- Ice
- Water

Then you hit the smoothie button and the magic happens. Delicious and nutritious!
