Questioning my existence. This 9-5 crap is rubbish. I hate being on the working hamster wheel. If my kids end up doing a desk job I've failed as a father. Mate, I have never had a 9-5 job but I certainly don't feel like I'm winning at life by any stretch. ...

... you should be able to put what you know to good practice in a RWD car.. FWD requires a different style and same with AWD. The main thing for me is being in the right gear and carrying the corner speed (I drive a 1.4 Fiesta). If the back end starts skipping a little then I know I'm there or there ...

... gym tonight. Leg day. Running around tomorrow, changing the battery on the Dodo. Probably not riding the Harley, as it'll be too wet. Although being left out in the rain all day today kind of scuppers my plans to keep her dry. Sunday, Bristol Classic Bike show, having won a couple of tix off ...

OK venting 2 bloody things today... First My boss got in at 0630 and within a space of an hour he had 3 fags and 15 min of being in the office but still leave just before us at 1430. During the week he's bad enough but Friday he just pisses off. Sometimes we've seen his car have his ...

Having read his January blog I can only confirm that trying to save a damsel in distress never works.

It's definitely improved my nights away, doesn't feel like I'm being robbed of my home time if that makes any sense.
