    Passed my second interview today, the manager seemed well impressed with me and instead of it lasting max 1 hour it went onto 90mins.
    I should know by the beginning of next week if I got it. If I do, good luck ye shower of pr1cks! (the managers I mean) :D

    And the Honda is going in on Friday for the final time to get the fuel filter replaced, bastard tried putting itself in limp mode today because I wanted to go faster than 50kph and have the injectors swapped.
    If it doesn't change then to fook with it and I'll drive it till it dies or.... somehow goes on fire in accordance with my insurance policy :)

    Had a pretty scary near miss in the Toyota earlier on this road, like so. I'm the purple and the other car, red. Really, really close. I just swerved, luckily there was nothing in the other lane. Profanities did ensue.

    I'd be up for a meetup in Dublin/Kildare if there was some interest around!

    Depending on dates I'd be up for one too.
    Have a work night on the 19th but I find in the boring days between christmas and new year's a meet would be welcome!

    Would be something to work towards getting the mopar ready for aswell!

    I picked up rear brake pads today in the local vw garage in cork. So ill get them on over Christmas that should be everything brake wise sorted for an other while as front one needed to be done at the last service they looked original so I'm guessing the back are too discs are good front and back. Then it will need tyres and cvrt in January and a service that should be the car sorted for an other while :D

    As for Christmas holiday I have two exams left one tomorrow and Friday and then I'm finished till the 12 the January can't wait to get the break :)
