So I'll chuck this in here..

I've not long gotten home from the 135mile round trip to university after submitting my dissertation - I feel giddy and light headed from the relief I feel. I can't thank you all enough for the kind words, encouragement and support over the past few months. It's been bloody tough but I'm glad this part of my final year is over. I still have 1 exam and 1 assignment left to hand in May 2nd and May 8th.

I'm flying early tomorrow morning so I'm going to grab a bite to eat soon and try to catch some zeds.

I probably won't be on here for a week but when I'm back I'll be putting some footage together - probably a highlights, a fastest lap, and a raw session.

It's a much needed break of eating, drinking and riding motorcycles... oh, and the Fiancé has instructed the people going that I have to visit a strip club.

Enjoy, Cav, you have earned it.


I did visit Portimao once not long after it opened. Was on holiday so it was only a quick look but its an awesome place.

:D I'm light-headed with relief too, Cav.

Congrats. Treat yourself to a pack of Embassy Regal & a six-pack of beer. It's heaven.

So how long does that crap last? Jorja is 10 in May and she’s already like a moody teen.

Ha!

Mate, I'm not even sure there is a tunnel, let alone being able to see the light at the end of it.

Tuesday night she gets dropped off from dance. She can't be arsed to look for her key so she's banging on the door like it's the flying squad doing a raid.

"where's your key? " asks I

"why would I have a key"? retorts my angelic princess as she shoulder barges me out of the way.

Last night I suggested a family trip to the local for a pie and a pint. Going on my daughter's reaction we had instead asked her if she wanted to be dragged for 100m over hot coals. She wanted to go to dance but as she said to my wife "you and dad have clearly decided you want to go out so I'll just have to stay at home then".

So yeah, enjoy. You have my sympathies.

And I could very well have a 12 yr old girl under the same roof by the end of the year (facepalm)

Driving and more driving, but back home in France.

Easy journey, but eventful at the end. As we pulled off the motorway the car died, managed to restart her and drag her home but she's dying - trusty mondeo will have to go.... ;( Its been a fantastic car and owes us nothing, so quite sad really.

She got us home though - what a star.
