Had a good day today..

Day off work

Dismantled + fixed dishwasher

Polished inlet ports on mini head for next project

Large plate of chips peas and gravy

Cleaned garage

Sorted out noisy lifter on V8

Had a play with fuel settings on V8

1 ½ hrs of twist roads in the Viento which ran better that ever, beautiful sunshine, only downside is a little sunburn on arms.

Now having a drink

up early to drop mum at the coach station

got back and got the car out straight away!

took a 30 mile blat over to see benzine

installed and calibrated his lambda gauge, checked MS over and advised on bits needed, gorp'd at a straight 6 in an MK chassis!

went out for a blast, then lunch,a toasted chicken, brie and spinich sandwich chips and salad + beer, very nice.

another blat back, drop benzine off and then another 30 mile blat home!

great day with the weather, but my eyes are so sore even wearing shades!

Took the banana to work........
Cleaned out the wagon then got pestered by a manager to take him out for a blat
So took him down our private farm road at a few knots with airtime jumps and he sh*t his pants

Said that was awsome

Sent my in-laws home on a train yesterday, which was good...

Put my daughter on a train today, heading for Heathrow and on to Sydney, won't see her again until September 2010 unless I can find time & money to go over there... not so good...

Does nobody here have to work for a living...

Worked all day, got home sorted 3 kids out for dinner, bath and bed, chucked some dinner down my neck, tidied the house and then...strapped myself into the Indy

Nice 35 mile blat taking in some favourite twists and turns. T shirt, shorts and crash helmet - drew a few odd looks from other road users, but then it was getting dark I suppose.

Pi55ing out down now so I'm thinking take away curry, beer and a movie tonight
