After leaving my keys in the pub last night (and having to get my mum to drop the spare pair off at 12am) I had to go there today.

And a few minutes later a bloke turned up with a C5 in his van for the photo shoot for In Electric dreams

I got to have sit in it.
The amount of people that stopped to have a look and cars that drove past slowly was funny.

Just think if I hadn't of left my keys there (only found out today) this would never of happened

Today, we moved in the last of the important things into our new flat. Now to sort it all out. And, at least our Internet was turned on yesterday, unlike Sky, who kept me waiting for two weeks, the shower of bastards.

Today I woke up with an unusual feeling of happiness as it finally sunk in that City had won the league. There was a time not long ago when I couldn't see us playing in the PL again, let alone winning it. Will need to watch the match again later as it's all just a blur at the moment.

Today my mums dog collapsed and died, he wasn't even 2 years old i'm gutted! He was a cross between an English Bull terrier and a Staffy.

The vets are going to do a post mortem as they don't really know what caused it.

Just got back from another shift of thankless overtime. Really crap when you give up free time to help out and seem to get f**k all recognition for your efforts. The money will do of course but still...

Ah well, gonna have a go at fixing the telly then might make a start on the Nissan Skyline Tamiya kit I've had gathering dust for months (only just got hold of the spray paint for the body shell).

Had to attend a "confidence and motivation" course as part of my compulsory Working Links programme.

There's 3 3/4 hours of my life I'm not getting back...

I knew somebody would say that - could have bet my life on it :lol:

Of course I count myself lucky because ultimately, I wouldn't do it if I didn't see the value in it. Like I said, the money is enough. The recognition bit just annoyed me because I was fresh out of the place when I wrote that. I'm all chilled, mellow and stuff now - honest :)
