Yep, thats certainly early Pete!
I'm obviously one of the few going to this small car event, just got to finish preening myself for Niall ( ), get the car fixed (again) and packed, then we'll be on our way. I expect the rest of the weekend to pass in a fairly non-sober fashion, so BRING IT ON!!!

Friday - Get the drum bearings sorted for the 206, refit them and adjust shoes/cables properly....hopefully end up with a useable handbrake! Get MOT booked for next week. Then this evening watch the 106 ebay auction end at the start price and cry....
Saturday - Finally get a weekend to myself after about 3 months! Probably spend Saturday cleaning and tidying....cos that's how I roll. And being jealous of those at FCS lol.
Sunday - Go this this little car show. Oh wait, no, not FCS. It's Alive and VDubbin' in Ipswich this weekend. Tbh I'll probably hate it, have a panic attack, come home and say I'm never going again (as I did 2 years ago) but we'll see... Sunday evening, people will be home again, urgh.

To be fair, the event at Brands will be better than FCS, it's a given!
Tonight - Finish @ 5, bum about
Tomorrow - Seeking mortgage advice @ 2:30. The F*cking EDL are doing a march through our town at 1pm though, wankers. Could make parking interesting.
Sunday - Naff-all, might get to fit my new headlights / bumper...
