Busy busy busy!………

Well, the last few days have been pretty non-stop really, it’s a bit of a long one so go and grab a brew or somet! When I last updated on Thursday night I was just heading out of the door to go in to town and it was pretty crap to be honest, there just [...]

Water stunts, dead cow and good friends……….

It’s been a busy couple of days here and it’s been pretty tip-top to be honest. After finishing work yesterday Me, Morgan, Louise and Sarah (one of Louise’s mates who’s staying with us for a week) headed round to stuntman Graham’s apartment building for what is now becoming the regular weekly barbeque slot. Once again, in [...]

Road Test!…….

It’s been a pretty quiet couple of days over here to be honest, I think I’m still recovering from England’s awesome sporting week! Yesterday stood out though for one good reason, we had quite an interesting motor in the workshop. Anyone that knows me will tell you I can be pretty anal when it comes to [...]

Wow, how good are we at sport?!……

Just got back from the boozer after watching the Formula 1 finale and still can’t quite believe how Mr. Hamilton managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory so convincingly!! Fair do’s he had a car glitch, but he shouldn’t have been way back in 8th when it happened anyway! If he’d have just [...]

We came, we saw, we con…err…went down like a wet fart!

Well, what a roller coaster day today has been!! I’ve just returned from the pub and must say I’m not impressed with how the rugby turned out! I thought the lads got off to a really decent start and even at 6-3 down I thought we still looked pretty strong. Towards half time though it [...]

Rock Bottom………

Now all the Ramadan stuff is over and done with the working week has returned to normal (as normal as it gets anyway!), and that meant half day yesterday. I was so pleased to see 1pm come as well, as work was a mad house; why is it people choose the last day of the [...]

Anyone for tennis?…..mixed doubles……?

Yesterday was a tad quiet to be honest, although I must admit I was a bit of a lazy git and spent most of the morning in my pit! I had a bit of a scout around the net for a bit (I’m still eyeing up motors for when I come home) and had a [...]

Say it isn’t so……….

Anyone that has known me for anymore than about ooh 5 seconds will know that my main passion in life is drag racing, more specifically the family owned race car. I was kind of born in to the sport and spent much of my growing up at one drag strip or another, so consequently it’s [...]

How to ruin a perfectly good night with one easy step……..

Yesterday was a bit of a mixed bag to be honest. I had a quiet one in the daytime, mostly just spent chatting to a couple of folks online and scouring the ‘net for car options ready for when I re-embark in merry England next month.  It wasn’t too bad though, as I was planning to hit [...]

And so it begins……..

Well, here we are then, post one. I’ll be completely honest, the only reason I’ve started this blog is to appease the bullying of certain people back home who think I need a blog *cough*Wiggy & Fee*cough*, although I must admit I’ve thought about it more than once. In hindsight maybe this is a bit [...]
