Living in...
Berkshire this week is mad what with Royal Ascot going on and all. I knew it was going to be busy but this is ricky-dicky-doodles, all very exciting though.
It's like Vietnam with all the helicopter traffic going overhead, and I've just counted the seventh Rolls Royce Phantom going past our window. Recession! Nobody told these guys.
In other news Mrs. Evans picked up her new car today, the latest in a long line of trusty Landys - so she is dead happy.
I spent the morning with the Walker family - a family from Newcastle who I met when they took pity on me in France last year.
My car had broken down and they took me in for the afternoon whilst I waited for the man. I asked how I could pay them back, and their honest reply was that their little lad Josh was car mad, so he's down today; and him and his dad have taken the 599 out for a blast, smiles wider than The Tune.
Brilliant! They're coming to the show this afternoon too... hopefully...if I ever see them again that is.
A big hello also to mum Carmen and young Eve, who are currently hitting the shops in Windsor.
Right now that the brownie points have been earned, I'm just trying to figure out where to spend them.

I am getting a new car this summer, not sure what to pruchase yet, but it won't be anywhere near your budget!! As long as it gets me from A to B safely, that's all I care about.

sorry for absence recently but I have a good excuse and it's called tiscali (thank god other providers available).
Absolutely useless (IMHO), but we're back online - for the time being.
I remember the France incident, what a way to repay. Drive thro Norfolk anytime bigcheese
Weight loss, well I lost nearly 2 stone in the lead up to my 40th but seem to have crept up half a stone since. Got 2 weddings to attend this summer and a 10k run to do so I have targets to aim for in order to trim back down again I guess???
Went to see Madness at the weekend, wasn't really that bothered about going but boy they were brilliant. Got very drunk and took me nearly 3 hours to get home (I live under 3 miles from the venue!!!)
Work has been crazy, to be honest I'm a bit juiced off with it all at the mo as I've had a few too many griefy jobs to attend.
Lovin' my days off this week.

OK, I drove into an off-duty policeman who happened to be driving a Golf GTI, and all because I was leaning over to turn the cassette up so I could hear Paradise City better!
I drove into his rear offside as he was turning into the road I was exiting. The crunch of metal and glass and seeing my little Mini 850 crumpled destroyed me.
When i got home form work, I rang my boss, in tears, to say I wouldn't be in the following morning as I'd had a car crash (ever the drama queen!!). He asked if I was alright - yes. He then went on to say it's only a bit of glass and metal - they can be replaced. See you in the morning.
He was one of the best bosses I ever had!!
Awwwwwwwwwww!

The only accident that might have been down to me (still not sure!) but we'd had to have our luvly doggy put to sleep and had very emotional evenings. I (apparently) drove into the back of a car waiting to turn right (still after loads of years not convinced it was my fault but ........)

Morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blue sky, and the sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hooray! Even mrssootycat is out on the new patio already, catching some rays, although being jet black from tip to tail I'm not sure how we'll notice her suntan ......
I have had the most amazing nights' sleep. Have been having trouble sleeping just lately so to turn the lights out at 11 and wake up at half six with the alarm was wonderful.
To clarify: that's waking up with the alarm clock, not The Alarm, 80s rock band who did 68 Guns. My bed ain't that big!!
Altho on second thoughts ......
ha!
Could be a wild one today, with a visit or two to the norty step, just to see who's hanging out there.

Glorious sunshine streaming through the window this morning. Love it.
Went to watch daughter #1 last night perform in her school performance of Hamlet. Obviously she was brilliant but then I did forget to take off my rose tinted, super-biasedfocal glasses!!
Can't remember the last time I had a really good nights sleep. Huge downside of shift work I guess?
Love sb's idea of a blog meet at chris' car collection, wonder what he thinks though?
Oh and I reckon if sb pushes a bit she could even get her wish of a speech from the chief...
...or at least something from him to read out on the day???
have a slendiferous day mon petit fleurs

I can report that there is indeed glorious sunshine down here in Devon. I am off at 9:30 to play in a charity golf day so lets hope the sun shines for another few hours yet. :-))
On the local forecast they are expecting one of the best periods of weather for Glastonbury as well, so fingers crossed. Although I did have to laugh at the possibility that Wimbledon may not get to use their 80 million pound new roof...... you couldnt make it up could you!
Keep smiling

thanks ginge for the support - heres hoping!
Deev - glad you sleep well
I also slept okay and woke up in a bright and sunny mood - on the way to work the isplod played the songs i wanted to hear and was full of the joys of spring until ........
people outside work who were illeagally made redundant - yes i feel sorry for them and yes I know they ahve been treated badly but I cannot help the and I was made to feel very gulity for still having the job I have
So now I just feel pants!
Car accidents - I wrote of my nippy corsa and was gutted as that was the first nice car i had ever owned and bought it as a well done to myself for passing my degree
When my tigra was bashed last year and went away to be mended I wasnt that bothered - dispite the fact i love her - after all - people are much more important!

What a happy day, sun's shining here too, just!
Keith, I heard that about Wimbledon too, still if we get a good summer out of it, it's probably worth the price.
I slept well for once as well, asleep by 11 and woke up at 5.45, a bit too early, but still a good sleep!
Need to get on, catch you later

I think it's more down to not advertising it to all and sundry esp. those who like to damage cars through jealousy or dislike for a celeb????
Good luck Keith with the golf today and for good weather at Glasto.
As for the Wimbo roof, well I'm sure over the coming years it'll get the use. However 80m to guarantee sunshine for 2 weeks, gotta be worth it????
