Great timing with the snow tonight and what not, f**king freezing in here, can't come out till tomorrow too
The problem with this site is it's a bit like the old days when if you had a Beetle,a on coming Beetle driver would wave at you.It's friendly with people willing to help unlike other forums where people just want to know where you can get the latest go faster stripe or where to get a flashing Jesus figure.
It's the people on the site that make it,not the type of car or make.
Well Maria's main Christmas Present wasn't really something I could "wrap up", but I'm pretty sure I made the right choice.
On 23rd Jan, we are travelling first class to Stansted airport from Cardiff, where we fly to Ibiza - just the two of us.
We have 5 nights there, self catering - where I intend we eat out all of the time and experience all of the hidden local treats (we are already booked for a nice sunday lunch )
It will be very quiet there, most of the tourist stuff closed. We have a car, and will drive to the remote, romantic spots/beaches.... for some quality time together, something we have had little of, for a while
After 5 nights there, we fly to Amsterdam for the weekend,... where we are visiting friends who run a bar out there - always a scream, and great atmosphere.
Arriving at home on a Sunday, after 8 days away, almost in time to start a new job..
I cannot wait for the break
A very good article here about how the Israelis secure their airports with the minimum of fuss. Lessons to be learned, methinks.

Tunnie's Sky mates: "What did you do on New Years Eve"
Tunnie: "Helped a fat bloke change an exhaust"
6 hours. 6 rather hours
Needless to say, all bolt bolts sheared. Knew they would. 3 drilled out reasonably OK, 4th - where I got a snapped drill bit stuck - must have taken about 3hrs. Reckon I left Tunnie with a pile of around 20 broken drill bits, and a heap of blunt ones. What a pig of a job.
Cheers Tunnie
I was cold, tired, and back was killing me. Got home just in time - she'd done ribs . Watched the Top Gear Bolivia, then tucked up in bed by 10:30. Just got up now
It's probably a capacitor somewhere they are always favorite
QuoteQuestion?
Why is it that someone who is tall and skinny or someone who is short and fat is such a verbal focus point to others. To the point where they get fairly abusive in the way they refer to them........... Are they jealous?
It doesn't matter what weight you are or how you look so long as you're happy with yourself.
I'm 5'9" & the last time i weighed myself i was 12 & half stone (i don't have any scales)
I walk miles everyday & i'm fitter than most half my age
Got a good point there i think.
