  • Living beyond my means…

    Heh.

    Let’s describe today for you:

    Well, I went to a automotive performance parts specialist to get a new air filter for my upgraded classic, nothing too exciting, just a Pipercross filter (we’re not extending to K&N at the moment, it’d probably be a bit excessive for an untuned A+ series engine anyway!); headed back and prepared myself a wrap for lunch – with some fresh chilled water on the side. I did some studying on my laptop, listened to some remixes by CCC on the hi-fi and then headed out, in the minor, to the swiming baths.
    (more…)

  • Argh! My Eyes!

    Actually, they’re just itching. Itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… itch… (etc)

    Grargh.

    Anyway, ignoring my eyes (difficult) and not rubbing them (also difficult). I’ve got my shiny pipercross airfilter. Thus making my car the world’s most silly performance minor. A 1.3litre / Performane airfilter / LCB Manifold equiped minor done completely on the cheap – indeed, only done because:

    – 1.3 engine -> second cheapest option (second only to random second hand 1.1 litre engine).
    – 1.3 engine’s airfilter won’t fit -> mentioned to woman in shop who had old stock she wanted rid of for S.U. carb equipped cars….

    Argh.

    So fucking itchy….

    calm… calm… mnyar.

    They’re driving me insane.

    Okay. I need to go work.

    I’ve sorted out Regolith, I’m planning to go swimming… but now I should…oh, Lauren’s out of the Bath, I shall shave my legs, swim, then work :-)
