Well, this week reallyt hasn't well, and now we have to have a weekend just to add the shit week, eurgh!
Friday - Go to Vaux and purchase new thermostat/temp sensor (try to blag trade discount). Go to ECP and purchase rear schocks. Fit parts, commenting on how easy it is the change the parts as theyre not seized, and the fact they're cheaper than equivalent Peugeot parts, while also contmplating the fact that I might as well have spent the money on a '6 and the extra fuel for it now.
Saturday - Go to have new tyre fitted and tracking done in the morning. Tempt fate and start breaking the 306 in the afternoon. Expect major Vaux failure due to making the 306 undriveable.
Sunday - Nans in the morning. Ebaying parts in the afternoon.

Yep, this week has dragged its' arse like a dog with chronic worms.
I'm absolutely skint, got enough for a little bit of grocery shopping to get me thru to payday on Monday!
Today - Work til 5, then home, then Tesco to try and just buy 'essentials' (never happens) then home, Mrs is making me watch Twilight before I can play CoD.
Tomorrow - It's meant to be bloody cold this weekend so I'm just planning on staying in. Starting my RC hobby back up which means locating all the individual parts for my Porsche I'll start a little thread on here.
Sunday - More of the same really, stay in the warm, play with my toy car and possibly go on the PS3 if I'm well behaved. I think Nat will be doing a roast dinner and have her dad around for the afternoon.
We still need a dining table so if anyone has one of those folding-up ones they no longer want give me a shout!!

f*ck me what a week!! Nearly 60hours in the office today, as one of the Admin girls in the office has proven to be an incompetent arse and hasn't done any work at all on the Quality Management System to be assessed this friday. Tuesday she throws this wobbler. f*cking Tuesday. So I got lumped with the whole friggin lot, going in blind with argably less knowledge than even she had. Had the assessment today; only 2 minor non-conformities, and the assessor said he was very impressed wtih the system I'd put together, and with my knowledge of the relevant guidance documents and legislation. f*cking BOOM My boss is paying for a nice meal out for Mazz & I, so were going somewhere expensive LOL
With that out of the way I can finally relax for a bit! Dominos ordered for tonight, probably watch a film then have an early night.
Early-ish start for a hockey match down in Romsey, then back, probably to relax for the afternoon. Might do some odd-jobs about the house. The Back-garden desparately needs sweeping of leaves that I've not bothered to do since before Christmas :/
Sunday, possibly out for a pub lunch, but jury's out at the moment!

Well today I was at work in day in the freezer all day. Come out and my cock had shriveled to nothing. Then went to takeaway job after struggling to do 2 deliveries in snow I decided its not worth it tonight. So I got back told them and they sacked me brilliant... so now just in the warmth with the mrs
Tomorrow got work early but only half day. Then no idea what ill do with my free saturday night. Probably go local pub and see if they got any bar work going as I get bored nit working weekends when im use to it.
Sunday I got work in morning again then nothing if weather has gone ill do some shit to car. If it hasnt gone then ill fix my dads laptop.

Off to Niall's today in the snow to change his shocks! I'm hoping the weather brightens up a little as this isn't good at all!

Cheers Scott, I was a bit beside myself yesterday. Went out to celebrate with the good woman last night so all is good.
Only downside i think it means the HDi will be up for sale as i'm hoping the job offer comes with the company car package that my current boss (retiring) gets. Have to use the car for company business as required then, so a 12 year old 306 isn't going to cut the mustard unfortunately as much as I love her to bits!

Haha i'm not even sure about the company car thing yet. Should be one like, just wondering whether they'll try their hand at using the chance to delete a perk during the transition!
Man I gotta empty the hoard of car parts!
