I know, I know, I haven't posted for a while. And it's not like I have a good excuse. Or even a crap excuse. I just couldn't be bothered - I've had a very lazy week, now that Uni is 'over' (although I still have a dissertation to be getting on with, and lots of things to be reading about ready for the Alpes).
Wednesday night, I received a phone call from 'Amy Mike'. Very confused (and obviously the name meant something when I put it in) I answered. The young lady asked me if I'd like to go and see a movie at the Brighton marina (all is looking up I guess you're thinking). Unfortunatly, it was my best friend, Michael's girlfriend. They and their neighbour were going to watch Transporter 3. Was their neighbour female - no.
Single female company asside, the movie was okay. The editor of Transporter 3 needs to be shot - I haven't seen poorly and fakely sped up film since TV shows of the late '70s! Also, I hope that the BBC and the producers of Top Gear have been paid for their creative input - we've seen BMX cycling in Budapest before, and vehicles being pulled out of the water and restarted (although it wasn't a Toyota pickup). To add insult to injury, the observant viewer will notice a copy of Top Gear magazine on the top shelf of the magazine rack in the petrol station...
[once again, no image - I still can't access my external hard drive - curse you Western Digital]
3 Escorts out of 5: not a bad movie, but just about worth seeing.
Lastly, to the title of my blog. Michael recently purchased a very nice Audi A4 2ltr sport diesel. Asside from using the fuel of the devil, the car is very nice. But despite costing 40 times what I paid for my classic special edition multi-purpose '86 Ford Escort, I ask you - should it take 20 minutes to park in an empty (yes I said empty) car park. Michael, I love you, but you really are a tart when it comes to parking. Just when he'd taken three attempts to park straight in the bay, Amy (his girlfriend) pointed out some muddy football marks on the wall next to the car. The parking process started again...

Hey Clarkeface, I saw Transporter 3 a couple of weeks ago now and thought the exact same thing about top gear. I thought the film was good but didn't have the same "set up" as the first two. the opening was different of the others which I thought was rubbish.
Good to see that you are still trying to find the ladies (you ca have mine if you want, HA HA).
See you soon.
Robert
