They're getting ready to pop out of the coffins right now!
We will not be playing at the EC next year. Which means we'll have a quiet summer

Is that just not an awesome amount of satisfaction?????
All the paperwork in the process of legalization of the house where my family (4 of us) is living is finished. It will allow me for doing my business-related paperwork in 10 km distant Trogir, rather than in 70 km distant Sinj, as well as less trouble to enlist my daughters in the local kindegarten and schools.

Had a rental truck for a week. During the pre-trip, the rental agent and I both missed some glaring damage at the bottom of the front bumper(the missus noticed it when I pulled into the driveway) so for the whole week I fretted about this going as a claim on my car insurance. To top it off, when I dropped it off, I had to back into the only parking space, directly opposite the front door. I might as well put a large red arrow pointing to the damage, it stuck out that much. As the agent walked out, I could swear he looked directly at it. When he finished the post trip, he said "great, no damage". I signed the truck off and made speedy retreat.

Thursday I bought a 14 year old Mercedes CLK320 V6 Auto with all the electronic toys that could be fitted in 2001 for £700 ($1100) it has 40,000miles on the clock and was a trade in at work. The boss let me have it for what he gave the customer. Friday I changed all the fluids, filters and fitted a 2nd hand stainless steel aftermarket exhaust, 2nd hand sports front dampers, new drop links and bushings, new air filter, new plugs and today I had a friend put it on his rolling road and re map the ECU for more revs and ponies.
Why so cheap for a classic 14 year old car that is barely run in, will run for as long as I can afford to fill the tank, will more than double the national speed limit, never depreciate and has cost me £1800 in total puts out 237 hp on the dyno (it only put out 215hp when brand new). Well the Alloy wheels had been kerbed (a few hours with a sander and a tin of silver paint) the paintwork needed a T-Cut and mopping (apprentices are so handy they get to do the crap jobs), the air con didnt work (split hose cost £9.99 re-gas £50) and the drivers seat had a split in the leather (tube of impact adhesive £2.99).

The fact that I'm feeling comfortably numb right now. I don't care what they say about heart meds and alcohol. A little wine makes everything better.

Runs like a swiss watch never had such a smooth motor just need to keep my right foot light on the loud pedal.
