Getting 50.02 MPG on my bike going to Bristol and back, cost me £30 compared to the £90 I would have in my car!
Brought brand new bosch s4 battery for my car! 
old battery was that knackered it came on the test as a non servicable item
Ah no more jump starts!

Just passed my Basic Accounting 2 Exam for my AAT, of which I nearly missed the start of as the main road was closed, on the bright-side I got to rally down some narrow dusty lanes. I made it with about 20 seconds to spare, although about 20 people were sat there waiting for me
started looking at insurance quotes for my renewal in may.
First quote was 300 quid for the year :slayer: over the moon with that and i can probably get it down more as well

It's been a while but since I'm logged on...
I was just practically kidnapped at an impromptu art exhibit in Dublin
As I walked through the Westbury mall in Dublin, I noticed a group of people infront in what seemed to be an exhibit of some kind. As I passed through, a rather strange lady stopped me and somehow guessed my ethnic background in one shot, this kinda freaked me out... She was about 40ish and was pissed on wine but kept on talking. Turns out she's an artist and some of her work was being, er, exhibited. She kept asking for my number and wanted to bring me to Bruxelles..... Then kept asking my age to when I replied my age she said "oooh so you are a man..."... Then she gave me a glass of wine and said "this might loosen you up" with a winky face. So after lots more time had passed, the mall was closing, she said "I'm not leaving without a hug" and proceeded to grab me, attempt to pick me up and carry me out... Hmmmmm..... A normal Thursday evening.....
She resembled Mrs Doyle from Fr Ted not just on the looks dept but a similar voice and laugh Google be your friend there...
That was rather funny and wtf at it's finest!!!

Well I picked up my first Multipla and my first Fiat today - had a massive smile on my face driving home. Arrived home, parked on drive and sat I the car with my wife and drank a few beers, our first Fiat multipla party ( don't worry car on private land, no intention of driving, no keys in car) had a laugh - this is a car we really both like.

the last few days our Mini has started talking, this seems to be part of the in car entertainment system which feeds back all sorts of information by speaking to you.
It also has multiple personalities the car its self is female and in charge, the engine has the voice of some 1920s steam engine driver and the audio system is a rather posh sounding chap who complains about my choice of music.
the Engine will cheer me on for going full throttle, and the female voice will greet me and say good bye as well as asking all the other systems whats going on.
its actually quite funny when they argue or give an evil cackle

My tax reminder came today. £55 for 12 months. Much better than the £220 for my BMW!
Whoa, is that a stock system? Or aftermarket? Sounds brilliant
Standard system, its all part of 'Mini Connected'
Apparents one of the best systems fitted to any car
Ah right, I think I saw somewhere that they have Harman Kardon speakers too.
Evil winking cat in the dryer
Wait till the EML comes on then a voice pops up sounding like a rough pikey sucking air through his teeth "ohh its not going to be cheap mate!"

She looks like a smaller version of one of mine lol.
My two older cats don't like my new cat
. Neither have been themselves since we got her. One of them is always sleeping in my room now. The other stays in my parents room. The new one has the whole of downstairs lol.
