So yea, age-old tradition here, not done one of these threads in a while
This week I have been mainly-
Trying not to spend any money - Moving out on the 16th of June so need £1,012.50 (6 weeks rent) for a deposit, plus all the costs associated with moving out. Found a van we can borrow, but it's er...a flatbed. So pray for warm weather.
Looking into home internet packages - what a minefield. I don't even know what phone line is in place at the flat yet, but I do know that I want an internet connection!
Panicing. Mrs has been to hospital twice about the baby this week, one such incident involving a rush home from work. Not good for your nerves, all this baby business!
Preparing for baby - I've now got an ISOfix bracket to fit to the car. Just have to find some high-tensile bolts. I'm more interested in fitting my new boot spoiler though - what does that tell you!
So -
Tonight - Going to visit my good buddy Ken and play a bit of this new game "Starhawk" for the PS3. Looking forward to it, always a laugh. 2 tellies, 2 PS3s, a KFC bargain bucket. Just what any modern brothership requires! Mrs is pre-occupied with meeting her buddy and going for a Nando's / going cinema. BORING!
Tomorrow - No idea. Literally none. I have to try not to spend any money whatsoever due to the saving-up. Weather is meant to be quite nice, which is never good when you have a hormonal, irritable girlfriend who needs entertaining. Hmmm. Maybe go visit some family.
Sunday - Again no plans, would be nice to fit this spoiler. If my Tigerseal turns up, that is. Of course pictures are a must.
Off you go then...
Disclaimer: The above is not to be taken to heart and is probably a joke, grow up you big girl.

Today - Been doing assignments all day at college....not long left until I'm a qualified mechanic.... hock:
Now just watching TV and getting NAD insurance quotes.....
Tomorow - Getting arse raped at TPS for mani gaskets, oil and filter (using dubgen discount though)....and waiting for the turbo courier. I'm not even sure if they deliver on saturdays though....if they do, then fitting will be happening in the afternoon!
Sunday - Work at nans in the morning as usual. Then in the afternoon, fix whatever else I broke on saturday.
Monday - Possibly ragging the f*ck out of the golf if its fixed and insured (if I go with admiral on the nad they wont insure the golf ).....but I doubt it will be fixed anyway!
