    i start at 7.30 tonight, finish at 0530 - last of a 7-on stretch. i then have 2 whole days to recover, then it's another set! not a bad run though - did a run to blenheim on monay night, timaru on wednesday night, auckland thursday. the only problem with going to auckland is that the new hiace van is a POS, and i refuse to speed while i'm getting paid by the hour.........

    Screw that!
    We do one Sunday a year for the MX5 club and thats all.
    If I'm at work on a weekend its for my own projects.
    Had a weekend job last year to help get the Daytona, now weekends are for riding, housework, keeping the car alive, and sitting on my ass drinking with mates...

    But we all have bills to pay...
    And I have a few looming...

    Might just go make a quick call...
    We all have our little obsessions...

    I hope the patients didn't escape. My brother-in-law works for IHC and he brought some patients around to my house in a van.....they scared the fuck out of me.

    Well, day 2.

    Thank god me weekend starts after today, 2 days at Puke race track Mon Tue, huzzah!

    Actually, though I know I will be beaten, Tuesday is a private cage hire at Puke, however the purpose is to raise money for Camp Quality, caring for kids with cancer.

    If you're in the area, pop in, head to the infield and come see me to fork over some dosh. I'll be sitting in the big ambulance shaped thing.

    Right, the Queen playlist is wearing down slowly - time for some Chemical brothers methinks...

    And the band played on...

    I think you're turning into that guy from The Shining ... but in reverse ... Too much play and no work turns Donor into ... oh crap ... gijoe1313! Takes one to know one I guess

    So where are you working, I may be tempted to pootle your way with Wendy's instead of McDees (and I don't mean McChickaJim)

    Oh my god... does this mean I have to get in touch with my inner ricer??

    Rosey is already blinged out - though the forklift here would look alright with some LEDs...

    I'm in Mt Welly, across the road from the lovely odours of a meat works and fish processing plant. It's magic on a hot summers day!

    (Edit: I will cage the box of parts around for a bacon and cheese burger!)

    And just where is this magnificent emporium of dedication to employment renumeration located?

    I may just be tempted to waft the smells of a porcine, moo-cow and ground grown wheat products in your direction at lunch!

    Well, another weekend, another dollar. (Before tax that is)

    Dragged my PC through today, and bigger speakers - my god the sound reverberates round here brilliantly!

    Still, be nice to get back to a normal regime, hard thinking of today as 'my' Thursday...
