Default Mixed day ..

Well, I wanted to put a post up tonight about the awesome brake pads I'd got from Dan @ Performance Friction.

I was then going to head up to 'Pod tomorrow morning, meet PJL and collect a J's Exhaust and then come home happy.



Went out to the car toight .. parked in works car park, to find I had no pass side window. ..

Hmm, thought I put it up this morning. Seems to be a LOT of glass about .. and in the car.

Oh, no SatNav anymore.

So to the theiving pikie scum .. (and I know they were pikies as they were in the area all week, they are not now) .. I hope you die a horrible death from pumping your sister/mother/dog.

So I phone up AutoWidnscreen, no glass till Monday. So that's pod out the window.

My leather seats are scuffed from the glass. The glass is EVERYWHERE. And my door card has screwdriver exque dents in the top where it meets the window.

I'm off for a brew or 17 now.

Sorry to hear that as I know that your car is legendary and admired by all.

How about joining me Channel swimming to work off some of your frustrations. I'm on the way back but Fluffy is having trouble motivating himself. Maybe he needs some manly opposition.


in these circles

I was going to join in when I moved to my new gaff as I'll have a pool. But the landlord was supposed to move out 6 weeks ago, and he's still living in the house.

I'm currently dossing over a mates.

Anyone out in Henley tonight? I'll be the drunk one yelling about "f**king thieving pikie w*nkers".

(and I'd hardly say "admired" )

Bummer - I'm not sure which is worse a break - in or an accident.

I remember the last time it happened to me - some scrote nicked my face off radio -sans face - which I had in my pocket! What's the point?
Made a right mess of my door and cost me a new door lock and a re-paint of the door.

and the tw*t left the iPod, the Alpine stereo, the SPA and AEM gauges, my snooper, loads of apexi dials in the pass footwell.

I wouldn't have minded, but I didn't lock the roof, they could have just pulled it open and not cost me
