    washed car yesterday, got dirty yesterday evening on the still damp roads.

    dry but dull today, washed the car and the nieghbours are powerwashing their roof so my car is covered in moss and **** and its hardly left the yard.

    checked the 3 day forecast and wondering should i just give up? showers today, rain tomorrow, rain the next day and showers the day after that.

    i remember last year washing my car on a sunday and being able to just dust it with a microfiber all week until the next wash....

    Your car looks good alright! T'was some parking you had though! :D Met John myself too, had a good chat with him. Very sound fellow.

    Weather was a bit sh1t, but very well organised and some seriously cool motors there.

    He could be working towards being a mod on boards. Sure there's loads of money in that. Jaaaags and bimmer's all over the place.

    Sign up for a PLC course or something in September, the government will pay and all in most cases. find something that looks interesting to you and go for it.

    lifes too short to not have a goal, only get around 85 years here tops, got to maximise the time.

    i actually find it hard to believe i'm talking to someone who has no idea where they want to be going in life :pac:

    The cars come from their normal jobs. It's a well known fact that mods are paid with coke (not the liquid) and whores ;)

    No such thing as expenses around here, all you get is a set amount of coke and whores. If you're not happy with it, you step down as a mod. t's tough but that's how it's gotta be!

    .... Of course there is another way to look at it, the chap is looking for work in a less than prosperous economy and as a young lad may or may not know where he wants to go in life job / career wise. He has plenty of time to figure that out and a year or so doing nothing won't really harm anyone at all :)

    ah i mean no harm, im nobody to point the finger when it comes to doing **** all for year or two, sitting at home and looking for jobs etc :)

    just from my own experience i feel i lost a lot of time and wouldn't like to see another young lad make the same mistake.

    Those fecking "hairy Japanese bastards"!
    One of them jumped in front of my car just now. Not enought time to do anything. All I heard is just "bump". I could not see any damage on the car now as its too dark, will have to look at it after work! :(

    Do they just run at any sight of light?!
