Not in a good mood today. It started badly as some a**hole hit the back of my car when I was stopped at a junction and I've just got home to find one of my neighbours already has christmas lights all over their house. Really? Its not even December yet.

    Christmas does not start in my house until December 6th until after people's birthday's are out the way. I realise that not everyone has a December birthday but even advent hasn't started which is the last Sunday in November.

Finally back after a 5 day training course on Management. Will I use any of it when I return to work on Monday? Probably not

You know its been too long since you last worked on your project when you can use the layer of dirt that has built up on it as guide coat.

My house smells like Christmas pudding. Hmmm... Shame I have to wait over 6 weeks to eat it though :-(

I failed miserably at the house auction in Stoke. The first bid on the house I was interested was way over my budget. At least I may be seen on homes under the hammer though as they were recording there and I was sitting quite near the front.

I got volunteered to do Movember at work. Need to learn how to grow a moustache. I can manage side burns so hopefully the transition shouldn't be too hard.

Going through some health and safety videos for work. There was a sentence that said, "the health and safety work at of 1974 was created in the 70's". No S***

Spent all day at the Heritage motor museum for a conference today. Went to buy a cardboard mini to build for 25p and they had sold out. Only landrover ones left, : (

My evening working on the mini ended abruptly when I ran out of welding wire. DAMM!

I got blitzed by a stock looking silver K11 micra this morning on the M6 Toll. If the owner is reading this all credit to your engineering as that is one fast micra

    Nope. 150 bhp vectra which may have been chipped by a previous owner. I let it go but the BMW 3 series in front of me didn't and the micra pulled away from that.

    Got one of those Pratt and Whitney engine conversions. Subtle.

My vectra is leaking brake fluid. It has to be the pipe that runs above the fuel tank as well, doesn't it. >:(

    Generally they have been quite good to me. Fords on the other hand... Don't get me started on them.

    My old Vectra had a noisy belt tensioner, you could hear it coming half a mile away!
