Dudes, here it is

OK then, we live and learn don't we eh?

Having investigated various activities, it has proved to be quite difficult to arrange anything that involves money so I have decided to do....................DRIVING

Here's the deal in summary,

1) We meet up at Gunthorpe
2) We drive through North Notts this time
3) We take in a few beer gardens en route
4) We end up a the gorgeous Hayley's house for a BBQ all invited.

Myself and Student Bloke will sort a route out which is both challenging and FUN

Note the date which is now the Sunday the 5th due to people working on the Saturday

Who's in?

MIKEY

p.s How would people like the route comunicating to them? i.e maps, route cards, don't bother I'll follow.

AARGH BLOODY CAR

It is off the road again Was a spectacular load of smoke and steam coming out of the engine and through the vents though, scared me for a couple of minutes!!!!!!

Fecking thing, anyone want to buy it??? In fact I'll give the damn thing away. All weekend plans cancelled as I have no wheels.

Sorry.

Michelle.

I know I don't mean it..........I love that car.



Why can't anything go right for once? Since I have had it it has caused nothing but expense. First repair was the rear bumper which a workmate hit. Then someone dented my driver's door, then the clutch went with a major service due. I crash it and get a damn speeding letter.......now the radiator.........it's jinxed!!!!! The damn car is jinxed!!! It has cost me SO FAR £4000 less than I earned last year.........

Michelle.

(Does not wish to know what she could have bought for that amount)
