Yes, this is the official version. Not some knock-off Nigel attempt from an ameteur. I've been doing this for years! Years I tell ya!
Anyway.
Pretty eventful week so far. Fecking hoover has broken, so now that's two things in the flat which don't perform their suction duty efficiently!
More on that, Natalie got admitted to maternity ward yesterday after they thought her waters broke, which was a bit shit scary cos it's like 5 weeks too soon. Luckily, false alarm. Unluckily, sleepless night whilst they kept her in under observation.
Today, fresh as a daisy -
Finish work at 5:00, need to post off my eBay stuff on the way home. Then chill out with the Mrs, watch a movie with some popcorn which I bought especially.
Tomorrow -
Look for a fecking hoover. Then, at 3pm Natalie has a baby shower thing (basically an American idea which means people are obliged to buy presents. Then they have to buy more presents when baby actually arrives. Sweet! Free stuff!). Whilst this is going on you'll be glad to hear I'm going to be doing Man Stuff. Namely, servicing the HDi. I have got all genuine filters and some Mobil oil, cos I'm a gimp who likes paying a premium on stuff which is essentially the same but says 'Peugeot' on it.
Saturday night I believe we are doing nothing. Might be an ideal opportunity to see how that suction works...
Sunday -
I'm pretty sure I've been told something is happening. There's a car show in Bishop's Stortford, looks pretty big. Might go, depends if I get my own way.
Your go,

Pretty eventful week so far, was at a funeral yesterday which isn't always the best way to enter the finishing stages of a week but what can you do.
Anyways..
Today:
Day off, but still got up at 8:30 and already playing stupidly loud music. Hopefully my new bank card will turn up today so I can go and get my new HTC ONE X then may see who's willing to be my friend for the day.
Tomorrow:
Lazy day with loads of Xbox and TV. Might see if good old Midnightclub & MrsMidnight fancy doing somthing.
May head out onto the town that eve to see what talent I can pick up.
Sunday:
Another lazy day and moan the further along the day I get that I have work the next day.

Shit week for me. Sorted clutch on car but it won't start! Been talking to a girl though that's into cars more than me she's really interested. She online though but meeting soon as cars sorted. She was at Fcs and she has pictures of our stand... And my car on fb! .
Anyway today work 11-7 then going to connect car up with elm see if anything comes up then nothing.
Tomorrow work till 7 again then think I'm going for a few pints.
Sunday day off. Chilling all day but got to go gym. And hopefully I may try and sort my car.
If I don't fix it await breaking thread :p.

It's my weekend on at work
Today: Working until 6, then having a quiet night in because frankly I'm knackered and I've just got Watchmen on DVD.
Tomorrow: Working until 6, then off to Headingley for Leeds v Wakefield in the playoffs, then celebrate/commiserate as appropriate
Sunday: Bottle my latest batch of homebrew lager, then go to the Leeds meet (might walk the dog while I'm there), then take my lass for a romantic meal because I've been a bit of a c*nt this week...

Dammit CAR!
Today: Work. Can't wait for this week to be over. It's been too busy. Getting some beers in tonight for sure then will probably settle down for a quiet one with Mazz when she gets out of hospital.
Saturday: Up bright and breezy to get my frankly ridiculous barnet cut. Then onward to Romsey to play the first league hockey match of the season. Injury guaranteed!
Saturday night: Probably a few cheekies at the clubhouse with the team, then the exercise combined with the stress of hte week will probably catch up to me and I'll have to go home at 8pm to fall asleep lol!
Sunday: Nothing really, might clean the cars, I need to finally mail CAR his rain channel rubbers, they've been at my house for a couple of weeks now! then probably do a few bits round the house.

I'd forgotten about those!
You want some beer tokens for them buddy? At least to cover postage. I guess I can just fit them with some silicone?

Ended up delivering one of my parcels by hand on the way home from work today, seeing as he was only 15 miles away!
It was the stereo + cd changed from the 306. Told him about this site should be ever need parts or information. He runs a 1.6 Meridian and his brother has a black phase 2 GTi6 which he was driving today. Cue half hour of chatting shit about cars and stuff outside his office lol!
