I didn't like the course, we didn't do hardly anything motorsport related. But I was only 18 and couldn't see the bigger picture at the time.

My tank goes from full to empty on the gauge in 150 miles :/ still equates to 39mpg though so I'm happy

Going cinema, suppose I better wash. Rust, dust, oil and paint isn't a good look XD

gotta love an ebay bargain....they don't crop up too often. Nice to beat the hyper-flated ebay mini prices once in a while....

Indeed! I'm quite chuffed because I was so close to placing an order with mini-spares for a new PCB, at £60ish quid.

Neither of my mini's are on the road so can't take them to a drive in theatre, a mate of mine has dibs on the gay couple option and everyone my age played with lego at some point. What girl would not want to go and see it? Option b is I see it on the 15th but one of my friends will undoubtedly spoil it for me before hand.

Lego is great. On New Years day, me (aged 17), my older brother (22), his girlfriend (22) and my cousin (23) were all sat around a huge tub of lego I recently salvaged from the loft playing with it. Best NYD EVER.

We did something similar when I was at university. We had to design a pick and place machine that was powered by pneumatics. The four of us in my group sat around in the lecture theatre playing around with my giant tub of Lego Technic while all the other groups were having to do hand drawings to explain their concept to the lecturers.

Its one those times where you have had quote on some work to be done on mini, some of which is not exactly needed at this time. But you go through the justifying stage of crap that comes out your mouth, in thinking that it "must" be done now, so in the end after all that you get it done. no matter how much the extra cost is for that job....yay

Do you drive in? The only problem with me driving is that my school was built in 1630 so let's say the road access isn't great, and due to it being small the car park is used only by teachers.

Domneon
Yeah I drive in, we have small car park to our selves but thats because the main car park is used for the public swimming pool. It has killer speed bumps though

Is it supposed to take 5 hours to fit a front floorpan? Prev owner must've had a thing about banging the cr*p out of the firewall with a hammer, then badly welding various patches on it. Anyway...panel's welded in nicely now. Hopefully it's the most difficult one?

Thinking of writing to Mars Inc about the obvious flaws in the Skittles advert where everything the guy touches turns to Skittles.
