Been quiet recently

Post by 13twelve »

the work load here has shot up, I became "assistant manager" and been having to concentrate on getting work done.

I've also been working the weekends at my other job.

7 day weeks suck balls.

And I have a freelance job on for my body piercers, making them a site for their new body modification venture.

I removed the piercings from my arm, planning to get the bars put into my chest.

I finally have the right gear box in my polo after 2 weeks with a 1 litres gear box. My 1.4 seems slow now lol.

And thats about it.

Except I got a new mobile, which I dont like lol.

Things that are now broke in the polo:
- the gear stick, the foam bit you hold snapped off
- passenger door pin, snapped
- bee sting thing, falling to bits

lol

Pffft! lols :D
It's like my dad wayback when he had to get shot of his first car, an 850cc mini... had a bit of a time.......

the box packed up (major trouble, as it's integrated into the sump!) and the only replacement he could afford turned out to be a super close shift sports box that had it redlining at about 75 and messed up the speedo.

Took off like a rocket, however! Apparently he couldn't go back to a regular mini after that as it felt like ploughing through treacle :D

i cant decide whether the polo now is any slower

before i was using more revs for every speed, so was racing through the revs alot - making lots of noise like

now it takes lots of less revs and less gear changes

i'm probably going as fast, as fast - but it feels slower cos its not as noisy

i dunno

i still wanna get a new polo - but things are going funny - think i gotta find a house first now...
