Lessons to be learned this week

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

On Monday, I took my car to the garage to have its new ECU mapped. So Wispy and I headed over to drop it off.

Things didn’t start well when I realised after we left the garage that having given them my mobile phone number, I had left both my phones in the car.

We had promised to take a barbecued burger back for Gill at the garage when we returned. So in true Top Gear style we figured that to keep the burger warm we could wrap it in foil and place it on the engine for the journey. Strangely it turns out this was not exactly the best idea in the world. Halfway there we could smell it cooking. On arrival it was gone! It had fallen through and was sat on the undertray beside the exhaust flexi. However, we did learn that the roof bows make handy tongs for fishing out barbecued food.

HereticSun.com and the Winter Warmer

Tuesday, December 18th, 2007

A lot has gone on since I last posted here. For a start, this site itself now has the domain name it deserves (don’t forget to update your links). Also, I have moved the whole blog across from Wordpress onto Textpattern for no reason really other than so I could play with it. There is also the small change in the complete redesign of the site. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

On a less geeky note, planning for the annual Seloc Winter Warmer run is well under way now. MSA approval has been provided, the cafe down at Hayling Island has been warned they will be swamped, RLO’s have been sent the route maps for their approval and around 70 people have signed up. All that remains is to sort everyone into groups and pray the weather isn’t too bad for the day. Roll on 6th January!
