Since filming the video I grabbed a shower, had some food and gained some perspective. No doubt the car breaking for the 5th time in 2 months i.e. when I received it new – is ridiculous. However I was so frustrated to have it break 24 hours after it was “fixed” I just cant dwell…. Continue Reading

More car troubles
The “positive, cup half-full” me is on the brink today. Last night I went for a really nice meal on the southbank at Strada, which gave the car a run out and charged the batteries more since they had depleted last week. Woke up this morning feeling good, got in the car and BOOM! Cars… Continue Reading

As always the blog shows the personal side to the trip, the flickr album shows the sites we saw and the video shows the people and hilarity. Needless to say we had a great… Continue Reading
Howzat!!!
Well another busy period since I last checked in from Brighton. Work was very busy as I am off this week, so was getting things tied up. Saturday I thoroughly enjoyed the cricket despite the absolute thrashing England received. The video shows the day. Saturday night I had Shaz and Bhav over for food and… Continue Reading
