Well i would have had a far better day if you sent one of thoses crayfish to my place. !!!
To bloody hot here today...worked almost the whole day outside in it.

Kids went to a birthday party at Manifield to watch the truck racing and had a ball.

Nothing else to report

Didn't sleep very well. Kids were being nosy in paddock behind house. Dogs barking at kids. Sound of helicopters above. Sound of Dad annoying my little sister. Sound of mum talking on telephone........... so buggered that all these noises were ringing in my ears. Woke up 6 hours later.....really tired still.

Got up, had breakfast....well really lunch. Watched the Cricket, went to the shops.....did a workout on the punching bag.....shower, then went to work...........

Hmmmm.....what a day :rolleyes:

Well not so much just one day but had a good weekend :)

Saturday I worked the Performance Car dyno for Torque Performance (as I always do) we had a ripper day. Second largest turnout since it began over 2 years ago. I was the last car up on the dyno and the GTR threw an impressive number considering it has very little done. Just over 350 hp at the crank.

The club got together Sat evening for fun night out, another good turnout. Met up with people I had not seen in a long time.

Got my house cleaned this weekend and even managed some decent rest all considering.

I've got this very stupid friend that I'm supposed to grab lunch with whose blowing me off :mad: Some people man!!!

Aside from that, I've got a very messy house to go home to and clean, but, the Superbowl is tonight, and I always enjoy that. It will be good to get some things done today, then relax and catch the Bowl this evening. But I'm sorry, this is supposed to be a happy thread. It is an unseasonably mild and beautiful Sunday here in the northeast US. And I'm not really mad at my friend. I think she pulls this stuff just to get on my nerves (she's really, really good at it!! :D ).

Its Monday morning here!!!

I get the next 4 days off! WOOHOO! So today, I'm taking a friend to my unit down south, as he's interested in renting it. Hopefully I get my car back on tuesday from the workshop, wednesday going to my aunts restaurants for an early chinese new year banquet, and on thursday going south again to the unit, to move the stuff out.

Can't wait to go cruising in my car though :)

And in the world of eastern seaboard US we are hotly anticipating the big game.


GO PATS!!!!

We have to win.

My Sunday, best day of my life:
Went to work for an hour in the morning then finished off my S2000 model when I got home, then logeged onto AF and IRC for a few hours.

Then I drove down to Hastings with my G/F, walked around then we went down to the beach for a swim, then went home, did fuck all.

The thing that made it so good is that my cousin faxed me from Turin, Italy saying that I have a job in FIAT's accounting departments, meaning I can finally return to my TRUE home.

slept till 1pm then relaxed for awhile, at 5pm went to a lil super bowl party, then came back home, bored... so went on AF

i can't believe the Rams blew it

Got trashed at superbowl party. My mouth tastes like an ashtrash...:bloated:

Saturday was a busy day marshalling at the classic bike meet at Pukekohe. The club got together Sat evening for fun night out, another good turnout. Met up with people I had not seen in a long time. (gee sounds the same as Razor)

Sunday was sleep in day, watched the NHL ALLSTAR game (didn't expect the world team to come back like that:eek2:, can't wait to see Canada win the GOLD at the olympics;) )
Finally got round to starting my latest model, went out and brought supplies and got to work doing something I enjoy.


All in all an enjoyable weekend.

and to top it off Wednesday is a public holiday here in N.Z.:D

Lets see.... No kids - thats always a good thing :D

Saturday, did the dyno day thing with Razor, a little dissapointing on my side though. That night went to the SkylinesDownunder club.

Sunday, had a whole bunch of stuff to do at home.

so not really the greatest of weekends. But I should have a really good one coming up soon. :)

My whole weekend was pretty good. Hung out with good friends Friday nite and Saturday. Sat. was beautiful. Cold and cloudy...which is a nice (and needed change for Phoenix). Alex and I pretty much laid around and watched our fish, then we did some shopping and went out for a nice lunch. Later in the evening we met up with friends and went out for a few rounds of minigolf. Then on Sunday we found out about a new fish/aquarium store and found out they had the much-needed algae eating fish we have been desparately hunting for for about a month or so. They also had some awesome plants so we picked up a few of those. So Sunday was kinda a tank maintenence and hang out day. I also got caught up on some work around the house while Alex was getting wet :lol2: After everything was done, we had some time to kick back and relax and watch a little Discovery Channel before hitting the hay.
