I've been doing "nothing"... where's the time gone?

Okay, I bet you think I haven't updated this site because I've got nothing to write about.... well, if I was you I'd probably think the same thing. BUT... I tell you what, you couldn't be more wrong. I apologise for the delay in posting, but I seriously have had no time. So what's been keeping me so busy? Truth is, I seriously don't know. I know I'm at work during the day, but the evenings have been either going out to dinner, either at someone's house or with friends, or playing some sort of sport, or going somewhere to visit someone. In that sense, I suppose you could say I don't have alot to write about, but I don't want bore you with minor details of where exactly I went and what I did. So I won't...

...I will say this, Southall made another grim impression on me last Monday. I went to go to a friends house for dinner only to find an immense number of police on duty diverting traffic away from Southall Centre. Why? Because there are that many rude boys driving around celebrating India's Independance Day that apparantly locals were sick and tired off the loud music and constant grief. The police in my opinion went a bit too far with the road blocks. I was asked to provide proof that I was going to a friends for dinner before they let me down the street. I looked at the officer and calmly said, "You're kidding right? What do you want, a signed letter?".... I think he realised he was taking his orders slightly too far and let me go. I was in a tie and shirt, listening to some chilled acid jazz, even he could tell the last thing I was going to do is start wheel spinning and acting like a complete boy racer. You have to check out that link by the way. It's hilarious. I hope I don't start hating Southall as much as I probably make out in this blog. It's a cool place to go, especially to eat, but I just wish there wasn't so many freshy pricks there. The thing that scares me is that they obviously do it for attention, and that many guys cannot be wrong... so somewhere, there are girls who are actually impressed!!! I can't even to begin to break that down.... *shakes his head*.

I also got my car back, and I wasn't dissapointed. The body shop did a fantastic job with the repair and although I wanted to keep the Renault to save money on fuel, I was not upset to see it leave. My car felt and looked new. The valet did a better job than the body shop cleaning it when I got back. I was well impressed. So I'm trying to keep it as clean as possible, but with this weather, and the amount of time I spend in my car, it's just get dirty. But I suppose, what's the point in cleaning it if you never use it! I would put some pictures of it up, but I think there is enough pictures of my car already. On the subject of pictures, I'm sorry about the lack of new photo's in the gallery section. My dodgy hijacked wireless connection is very very slow, and basically I can't do it just yet. But don't fret, hopefully I'll manage to sort something out and get some new and very much awaited photo's up very soon.... hopefully.

It's bank holiday on Monday, more importantly, its the Notting Hill Carnival in London. I've never actually been and this will be my first time. I don't even know what to expect. I'm quite looking forward to it. I usually go home on holidays but with a football tournament coming up the weekend after it made sense to leave the drive back to Leicester till then. I don't even know if I'll be playing...I doubt it, seeing as I left Leicester and haven't been to training. I'll just spectate, mingle and chitter chatter with people. If it's raining I'm off though! :)

I did want to write about some of the things that I've been up to, but thinking about it now, reading it would just sound lame. So I'm not going to bother. I will say this, this is now my 4th week in Fleet, and its flying past! I love it. Work is going well and although I haven't got my feet firmly on the ground just yet, I am getting there. Tonight is another famous Thursday night out in Fleet, which I always look foward to. There should be quite a few of us and if the last times when I was an I.P are anything to go by, it won't be without it's share of drama!

Watch this space for some eventful news, oh and also another update coming very shortly! Yes, that's right, I have more to say!
