Big boxes and Big coats

I promised I would show some justification for me buying a new coat. Here is me in my old coat with 2 pillows stuffed inside it. There is enough space to get MK in there, but then there would be nobody to take the picture...
Here I am in the new coat, there is no room for pillows in here and I hope it will keep me warm in the miserable Danish winter that is descending upon us.
A big DPD truck arrived this morning carrying a big box with my name on it. Amazingly enough, my wheels have been built and are now sitting behind me waiting to have the disc rotors installed and some tyres. Hopefully the tubeless system won't cause me any problems as the rim strips and valves are already fitted...

I hope to get them fitted tonight, but I don't think I'll be able to give them a test ride until the weekend.

    I am going to try the 'force 2 pillows in the coat' trick to try and justify a new one to B. It will not do the trick I fear. Since my accident in Laura Ashley recently which involved 3 dresses, I am not allowed to look at new clothes for a while.

    I had an eery moment when I looked at the picture of you in the new coat, it was like looking at an older version of T (my T that is, not AJ's). Does anyone else see that or is it just me?

    Ps I am wearing my new computer specs which I swear make me see worse not better, so this could explain it if I am seeing resemblances which aren't there.
