Hey guys how are you all doing?

Well I've got a lot of spare time coming up this month and now I've no longer got Slave I'm at a loss for things to do! What on earth do people do on their days off if it's not MG related? Maybe I could borrow someone's MG to wash & polish! And another question... why do they call it "free time" when all I do is spend shed loads of money on my days off!

Free time, ha!

Today, I have been mainly plastering, painting, wood-working, varnishing and, of course, listening to the cricket.

See I can't do all that home improvements stuff as it's rented accomodation... I did put some pics up on the wall earlier though... then decided that was enough work for one day and had a nap... woke up here.. strange place this is...

Hi Kara:)

What car do you have now?

I have been on holiday last week, been doing a few house DIY things and working on the F, claying the bodywork and cleaning/polishing the underbonnet.

I thought you would have taken advantage of a cheap flight to somewhere nice, or do you have be there a little longer?

Lucky you Kara, I just wish I had free time to wash/polish the 'F'

I've had some reversing sensors in my garage for nearly 12 months now and can't get round to fitting them... pop over and do that for me!

I guess that would explain the talking lion I've been trying to ignore

I have a rather average, completely uninspiring black Fiat Punto Sporting! Mind you she is soooo cheap on insurance! I was paying around £45 a month for 3rd party on Slave and for Glow (Punto's name) it's £36 fully comp so thankfully she's already saving me money, tax & petrol are cheaper as well not to mention my breakdown cover went down by 20% - she's just what I need right now - a really cheap runaround! Still she's no Slave, certainly don't spend hours washing her... in fact I haven't washed her at all yet!

Urgh don't get me started on Virgin hun! Long story short after realizing what absolutely crappy employers they are and how badly they treat me & Frank I resigned and am now looking for a job again! I wish I could have had the luxury of looking for a job whilst still working for them but when you're getting up in the morning depressed & crying you realize £8.00 per hour is not worth losing your sanity!

Reversing sensors? Interesting mate... where do you plan on placing them?

Aww Bruce looks awesome mate... you've done very class mods to her so I know when you're finished (if that's even possible now you're bitten by the mod bug) she'll look stunning!

So sorry to hear about the Virgin job not working out, hope you find something soon.

I've got reversing sensors on Jet Black, one on either side of the number plate.

Aah it's alright mate, tbh I've got a couple of interviews next week and am looking forward to the idea that these require a degree so I won't have wasted 3 years of my life! And they pay better as well which is certainly a bonus!

I like the idea of either side of the license plate, must be quite subtle whereas with some of these new cars it's like they just stuck on the sensors anywhere & everywhere!
