well helloooooo!
not long till my holiday now! so busy making sure ive got everything we need for the car. theres so much stuff you have to have in your boot by law, my car's not big enough!!
warning triangle
high vis jacket (1 per person)
fire extinguisher
first aid kit
tow rope
jump leads
spare bulbs
and then of course we have to have headlight convertors; the list is endless!!
getting a bit scared about roundabouts now, im not sure how they actually work in britain to be honest!
worried me and his maj wont get along, because hes rubbish at giving directions and im not very patient.
been talkin to andy at work and he was giving me advice and then higgy piggy had to come and spoil it all by shouting at us for talking despite us doing stuff while we were talking.
oh yeah, had to get new windscreen wipers AGAIN, so while we were in the shop yesterday we got a steering wheel lock for while we were away in france so we tried it out when we went to the cinema last night. (i'll come back to that in a second) the movie finished and we got to the car and basically we couldnt undo the steering wheel lock! the key wouldnt go in at one point and then when it finally did, it wouldnt turn. was having a right giggle at it despite it being slightly worrying that we bought the only anti theft device that stops the owner driving as well!! finally got it off and ian said we're adding a metal cutter to the list of things to go in the boot if we use the wheel lock thingy again. seriously it took us ten minutes to get the darn thing off!
oh the random noise that the garage cant work out what it is has disappeared, only to be replaced by an entirely new noise coming from by the glovebox but sounds like the indicator ticking (and before you ask, no its not the indicator, i looked) todd IS cursed.
anyway ian took me to pizza hut on friday night and then to see spiderman, which would sound lovely except that i gained this 24hr bug or something because i suddenly went all tired and couldnt eat anything because i felt full. spent the whole movie feeling sick. ian was pissed off because he bought tons of food and felt really embaressed because we had to ask them to put it in a box for us to take home but i just couldnt eat a thing. ian just thought i was miserable and putting it on - just like he did at greenbelt i might add - but as soon as i got back in the house i threw up, where he proceeded to moan that women couldnt be sick quietly.
anyway didnt actually fully appreciate spiderman 3 so when we went to see next last night i was in a much better frame of mind! the ending was disconcerting to say the least though. still dont like nicholas cage though - he looks too funny!
there are three films i defo want to see this summer
shrek the third, pirates of the carribean and harry potter. they all look so good judging by the trailer!
anyway, have to go for a bath now :D
