Loud Noises, Losing the Loaf and Service Pack 1

Jenson in Manchester

Hello again, it only seems like two minutes since last week, which has probably been helped by having a bank holiday. which brings me nicely to my first story, (almost like it was planned). This bank holiday I had the chance to get up close to my favourite sport Formula 1. I've been wanting to go to a race for the past twenty years but never had the money. I've been to a few museums and seen the cars in all their glory. But I've never seen a Formula 1 car driven in anger. So when I heard that Vodafone would be doing a VIP event in Manchester with Jenson Button, then I was there. Now anyone can appreciate the beauty of a Formula 1 car, or enjoy seeing the cars in action in full HD quality on the TV. But nothing in this world compares to the sound of Formula One car engine screaming at 18,000 rpm about six foot away. Let me tell you it slightly aroused me. And the smell as well, you don't realise but you can smell the fuel coming out the exhaust. It was like car porn. Seeing a Formula One car power sliding round a corner, donutting and then hitting the rev limiter on the streets of Manchester is like nothing else you will ever experience if your lifetime. I'm never going to wash my eyeballs again. And the noise makes me want to shout out like Brick Tamaland "LOUD NOISES !!!!"

Just say no !!

Seeing as how I've put a bit of weight on recently, especially since I stopped smoking. I've decided this week to start trying to get fitter and lose some of the podge. Now I don't really eat that much but what I do eat tends to be crap (not literally although I do talk it .... allegedly). And one of my worst excesses is bread. Ben (That's another mention and Ten Pounds) has started this week on a no bread diet. So I thought that I'd join in and take part. Its surprising how much I need bread in my life. Its almost harder than stopping smoking. (Give me a sandwich now, I'll do anything). I'm like some sort of bread junkie.(although smoking bread in a pipe would be quite a comical achievement). (don't try it kids !!). The problem being is what to replace it with as well. In my mind every meal seems to contain the demon bread. Hopefully after this week is over I can go back to having bread occasionally as I don't think I could live without it *sitting in corner of room shaking*.

Also whilst were on the subject of food, a new vending machine has been installed at work. Now I've been a very good boy and not had anything out of it at all. Whilst everyone around me is caving in and sneaking bags of crisps, or bars of chocolates, and cans of pop. I have been munching on Apples. I know its like someone has reprogrammed me. So I'm saying that I have been updated and am now running a different OS. Dean Service Pack 1. Now we all know that over time it will be corrupted and pick up registry errors, in other words I'll not be able to maintain it and start snacking on rubbish again. But for now I'm feeling all shiny and new like a fresh install.

YOU CAN USE MY OFFICE AND AFTERWARDS, MAYBE WE CAN GO TO LUNCH.

Ps for those of you that are sad like me, You may find hidden in this blog various Anchorman quotes, why not amuse yourself and see if you can find them.
