Firefox is starting to piss me off!

For some reason I could not top up my mobile - or indeed do much at all - on the Orange Website, but as soon as I switched to IE I managed it first time!

After 15 years of being a big Quo fan, I finally joined the fanclub today - oh I feel like a teenage girl!

Need a new phone, I want one that's also a fully functioning PocketPC, but have you seen the prices?!

Someone find me a 'Get-Rich-Quick' scheme that works - preferably without ripping people off!

Do you know what?

There are some beautiful 300ZX's about at the moment, and some of them are UK cars - the MX-5 has yet again gone out of the window, but that's no surprise! I keep flitting between the two, but I know I'll be gutted if I don't get a 300ZX.

Now to find the money.........

Woo Hoo!

Just got an email from Game, saying that the release date for Xbox360 has been put back to December 2nd, but I need not worry as my order is still live and will be despatched prior to its release - I'm so excited!!!!!!

There's a really nice MX-5 on the MX-5 Owner's club website, it's limited edition UK car with full service history and very low milage, asking price £3995 - if only I had the money! I'm beginning to come around to the MX-5 more due to running costs, still RWD and fun, but not as expensive to run as a big three litre monster. We'll see...

Lord Leo?!

So I found out today that the Lordship of Wheatley is up for grabs at a bargain price of £3000 - and someone has reserved it!

Been considering being Ordained as a Minister for Universal Ministries, but I feel that requires a lot more thinking over! Although I have had an Honourary Degree from them!

Why, Hello!

So following the disappointment of the movie version of 'The Hitchhiker's Guide...' I've started to read the books again! I started yesterday and am already halfway through 'The Restaurant at the End of the Universe', all of that for someone that never reads! I do like the film, it's just not how I imagined it I suppose.

I need to decide what kind of car I want before I have enough money to buy one! I want a really quick Coupe one minute (300ZX), then a nice, powerful four door saloon the next (Omega, Jag), and I keep being drawn to the MX5 too!

The driver's are apparently saying that if the rain at Spa persists, they won't race on Sunday due to safety concerns. For fuck's sake, get a spine! Ever since they introduced the Safety Car all those years ago, they've turned into a bunch of Pussies! Can you imagine Senna, Prost or Mansell saying 'It's a bit wet, can we stay inside instead of racing?' Fuckers.

Anyway, I'm off to have a shower before work, TTFN

Highs and Lows

Don't worry, it's not another introspective look at how shit life is!

Highs - Status Quo's new album 'The Party Ain't Over Yet', managed to 'obtain' a copy of it last night, and apart from two tracks it's a real return to form, carrying on where Heavy Traffic left off - a proper little rocker. Before anyone moans about me stealing from the industry, I think I should make it clear that I have the album on preorder from Amazon, so all I have done is got a Back up copy (all be it ten days before the albums release!)

Lows - 'The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy' Finally saw the film last night, WHAT THE FUCK?! I now know how Nicola feels when she watches the Harry Potter films - back to reading the books I think.


I told you a few days ago to "Watch this space", well I went and had a look at the Calibra, it is a very nice and tidy car - very good condition for a car that's done 115000 miles. But it just confirmed to me that I don't want another one! Back to the hunt - You can get a 1995 Jaguar XJ6 3.2 straight six for £3500 these days.........

Almost Time To Go To Bed


Ok, so blasting around the Nurburgring in a selection of fast cars (and a Toyota Prius!) probably wasn't the best thing to do before driving into Swansea to pick Nic up last night - poor little Ka got ragged to fuck! I haven't driven a car that hard for a long time, put it this way, I used quarter of a tank of petrol just going to Swansea and back! Great fun. Also, going over a hump at nearly twice the speed limit caused the Suspension on the front some grief, it was creaking like a bitch when we got home. Seemed ok this morning, though where I was pushing on the Ka to hear the noise is now a nice little dent - pushed a bit too hard methinks!

Need a good looking, fast car!

Take a look at the pic above, that's what I get up to on my tea breaks!

Bananas

So here I am, I was being bored but I think after I write this I'll play a little GT4!

Nic's out with her work friends tonight, so I'm awaiting the call to pick her up from Swansea - would be better if I could turn up in a nice shiny car rather than a small rusty little shitbox but there you go!

Go Go GO!

Here I am sat in my room with a pint of Stella watching the Italian GP, and I can smell dinner cooking!

1-0 to England against Wales - Math now owes me £20!

Remember my old Calibra? I've seen another one today. Yeah, I know I said Japanese and Rear Wheel Drive but watch this space...........

Boing!

"Time for Bed" Said Zebedee

Just thank whatever it is you believe in that Katrina didn't take your's

Xbox360

Ok, so you all know I have an Xbox360 on preorder, but I'm considering getting another one, not the full package just the cheaper Core System for my bedroom. That way if anyone wants to watch anything downstairs I can just play upstairs, and if no-one is watching TV/DVD downstairs I can play through the widescreen TV and 5.1 surround - the best of both worlds, without the hassle I have at the moment dragging my Xbox up and downstairs all the time!

PS. click the link on my homepage for all your gaming needs (they give me money if you do!)

Ok, how about this one?


If it can be made a little brighter, this is the Eddie that will appear on my leg soon....

Currently watching Transformers - The Movie as I needed to see it after I heard it's been released on the new UMD format for Sony's PSP, also on this format is Iron Maiden's Rock In Rio, you see, everything comes back to Iron Maiden!

Help required.....

Ok, so I've decided that my next Tattoo will feature the mascot of Iron Maiden, Eddie. But in which incarnation? I've always loved him as The Trooper (as last post), but I'm not sure about it, how about Live after Death, where he's bursting out from his Grave, but then there's No Prayer for The Dying where he's bursting out from a Tomb. Fear of the Dark (live) playing the Bass Guitar with his foot on the moniter at the front of stage?!

Please do some research and tell Leo in which direction to travel here! BTW it will be on the lower half of my right leg, so take that into consideration!
