what a road trip from hell

i was meant to get my second group a pump done before i went but ran out of time,so i planned to fit when there

but by time we got there and weather etc decided against it and dropped the boost

anyway left my house at 3.15am,loaded car on trailer and fueled up,on road for 4.45am

old x-reg transit,shitey old trailer and my car on the back,3 of us in the front,stopped once for food at abington

we got pulled by the traffic cops just before birmingham for being in the 3rd lane with a trailer

3 points and £60 fine,they were checking out the car for mot,tax etc when its on a fukn trailer

then the transit doesnt start i had to unbolt the battery out the cossie and jump start it on the hard shoulder,while the police just fucked off

got going,sat nav got us lost,never reached the proving ground until near 1pm

had our time there

back on trailer,my daft mate drove the wrong way round out and put us on the strip in the transit with andrew gallacher coming towards us at treble fig`s

got grief off the staff understandably

on the road more diesel,stopped for food at services and a lorry driver informs us the m6 is shut between 16 and 18,see charlie shaw and andrew g flying past,phoned them and told them so we took this other road to head over to m1 onto a1

all shattered had a half hour sleep,i jumped in the cossie,bunch of wee laddies seen me sleeping started jumping on the trailer

on the road again,got flashed by a speed camera another 3 points

eventually got back to mine at 2am,got my mates wr1 out my garage,woke the neighbours and put mine back in

bed

slept in for work,so took day off

im having a couple of cand now forgive me lol
