Recent Events

So what have I been doing since my last post. Well not a lot, but here is a list anyway

- Have enjoyed drinking some of the vodka I brought back from Poland.

- Formula 1 is back on, so most of my Sunday afternoons are spoken for.

- Drove to Manchester for a gig, only to find the main band had cancelled.

- Painted back wall of house, 1st time since I moved here.

- Got new car insurance, bloody expensive.

- Put car through MOT, passed with only a few minor faults.

But in a couple of weeks, the Spanish Grand Prix beckons, so I shall be jetting off to Michelle's to enjoy her hospitality and enjoy another race in Spain. Sitting opposite the pit lane exit this year, so it's gonna be extra loud :)
