Just switched on a new version of my website, it’s got a portfolio section this time around— http://jonheslop.com
Piranha scissors!
Well good
So we’ve been in Berlin for 12 days now and we’re having a great time.
We arrived with no where to live and spent a manic few days viewing places, after losing an apartment to a coin flip we actually secured three offers and had a long night weighing up pros and cons. We chose the place shown left (or above). We’re sharing with first floor apartment with 3 Bavarian guys. It’s great, we’re in Neukölln right near Hermannplatz.
We’re trying to balance work and exploration and it’s going well, we’ve been on many an interesting walk/bike ride. Which usually result in ice cream or frozen yoghurt, both of which Berliners seem very fond of, which I’m totally down with.
It’s also great to be back in a city and meeting new people all the time. I’ve had a great weekend, whilst Alex has been away in Cambridge, hanging out with the venerable Luke Leighfield celebrating his 25th birthday with peanut butter ice cream, indian food & kebabs. Great combo.
We have a blog!
Finally got these badboy 70’s Shimano Dura-Ace hubs built up.
Can wait to hit the streets in Berlin next week :D
Laced them up with DT Swiss spokes on Mavic Open Pros. With Continental GatorSkin slicks.
Just formatted the next five Do Lecture speaker portraits ready for their Do Lecture to go up the next week. Chezza does such a great job with the portraits, look how badass they all look.
I got myself a stamp! Thanks @alexheslop :D (Taken with Instagram at Le cottage)
Just got underseal in my eye. Washed my face in White Spirit and it’s still there. Going Clockwork Orange for a couple of days. (Taken with instagram)
Yesterday I was sitting in there today there’s an engine. Oh my. So close (Taken with instagram)
New cog in! Joy… Now for the plate, pulley, fuel pump, distributor, sump, radiator & head. Then we tune up :D
