Few days off work.. so are you about to or going to use your time wisely?

visited anywhere interesting? got some of those jobs done you have been putting off for ages? cracked on with that mini build that's been on going since the dawn of time??

lets see it then, post what you have been up to. :)

I was inspired by the recent trip Matt and Nic took, so i set off for a trip on some cracking driving roads in Wales, can highly recommend the B4396 and B4391 ended up at Bala Lake, great trip! .. now back to work on the mini :)

Lowestoft, Suffolk.

Its the first weekend I've had off in a month due to working away, so done very little. Broke out the polish on the mini, then have been out in it a few times only to find I have a list of problems as long as my arm. o joy!

I went to a 21st on Friday night and done basically nothing yesterday. I went to Mondello today to watch the Mini Racing Challenge. I'll probably clean out my garage later today as I want to paint the floor. Then tomorrow I'm going on a mini run and doing a bit of work on a mates car.

Yesterday spent a small fortune on a new mattress, new flooring for my kitchen, and a dining table and chairs. Today went to York with the DON and did 2 pretty poor runs and came back again. Tomorrow I am going to continue my little side project which is turbocharging my 205 GTI.
