BTCC - Bad Day :(
« on: March 30, 2008, 17:59:11 »
Im well annoyed... Again.

Something really is not right in my life at the moment - Stuff keeps going wrong... :(

Went to Brands Hatch today to watch the BTCC.

Set up Sky + this morning to record the ITV4 coverage.

Mrs felt rough, so we left after race 2, to watch the 3rd one on the telly.

Go to leave, to find that my Golf has sunk in the car park, and now is stuck firmly in mud.. That took me ages to get out with 3 people pushing....

Get home to find that the recording that was there this morning, has now gone completely from sky so its not recorded anything.

GRRRRRRRRRRR

I notice your golf is the GT how do you get on with it there supercharged and turbocharged 1.4 aren't they???
Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself. !!!

Yeah, i gather!

Highlights on tomorrow at 6....

That will have to do.

I read that Tom Onslow Coles's motor needs a new shell - Hope the lad is ok... One hell of a shunt!

Well, they do come in a 1.4 petrol, which is super and turbo, but rules at work state diesel, so its a 1.9 TDI pushing 140brake, where as the 1.4 nearly gets 170.

They do make my one in a 170 version, but i could not swing it with work

Love my one to bits though - its just not very good off road!
