Literally nothing left
Did you get a loan for the build? I bet it's well over your initial budget?
It's not like i've even got much left to buy but you feckers have got me looking at WMI again
LOL, they are interviewing for my job here in Cheltenham to replace me (as was supposed to happen back in January) so I can go back to my day job....
Yay!!!!
I wonder what prompted them to do that?
Nope, I hate the idea of being in debt/ having a credit card, It's all cold hard work and doing nothing in the middle.
Well over initial budget by about 2k now LOL
But it's getting done properly and that should count for alot
Well surely you had some saving! I cant believe you've earned £4K this month!

Oh yeah no way I earned 4k this month, I had enough money to the side for my original budget and I've just been working in the meanwhile to afford the difference.
Buying the mk2 didnt help if I'm honest lol
That rent boy work is helping then....
Same with the Clio I bought, however that's on the Bay now so money shall be returning which is always nice....

There are downsides though, for example when something goes wrong, it falls squarely on your head, as opposed to being able to take it back and say 'Hang on a cotton picking minute here....'
Welly, will AITP be your last Audi event in the S3??
Welly you pick all this up as you'v gone along or did you swing spaners in a past life??
As I've gone along mate, never had any sort of mechanical training at all - apart from playing a lot with Mecano as a kid, and cars aren't really that different.
None of the rest of my family are that way inclined at all, so god knows where I get it from.
I must be the milkman's.
I've been to the pub, had a few drinks, now good for nothing
PA head on tomorrow for me so I will be assistant sound engineer for the next three days - downside two nights in a caravan - upside the mixing desks and sound engineers will be based in the beer tent.
Won't be on here a four days as I have Monday off to relax as it is a pretty physical weekend - especially as I usually only push a keyboard round.
Looking forward to it.
