  • Unable to sleep

    Now this doesnt happen to me very often, but it does happen when i have something brimming over in my mind that keeps my mind active whilst im trying to sleep

    The thing thats on my mind right now is my caddy. I so want to drive it about its not even funny. So i have decided that – regardless of cost, i am gonna get it done! And as quickly as i can!

    My Caddy!Caddy!again

    Over the next few weeks im gonna strip the exterior of anything strippable. Im going to source a trailer that can carry a car – and im gonna go get a quote for it to be resprayed in jet black again. I will buy two new front wings, because for how much they will bump the cost up thru repairs etc, it would be cheaper to buy two new ones. And i dont care how ilegal it is, im not having side repeaters!

    I have a little list of parts i need really, i have most things. I just hope its as strong and well protected underneath as the guy said it was when i bought it. I have got to fit the tank and compressor underneath, oh and i want to put rear suspension and brakes off a mk2 golf / or the doner car from the engine – on it too. That will probably mean having a strut brace of somesort, but i guess i wouldnt be using it much as a pickup anyway!

    I just have dreams of driving it about, dumping the suspension at traffic light, then litfing one side up to drive. Then, and only then, will i have the modding bug back 100%.

    I just need rid of this clio, and i need to source a seat ibiza/toledo or a golf mk3 TD – so i can steal the engine out of it. Happy daze!

  • Success

    My day have has been lovely. I got up when i woke up about half 12, pissed about for a hour. Went and did all the shit i needed to do in town. I have also priced up a sunroof and a steering coloum from a scrappers. Its only gonna cost £30, so im going to pick that up in the next week. Im sick of having this clio, i need to get caddy working.

    Im gonna do the rounds on my mates blogs tonight. Djb has moved onto wordpress which im pleased about. Hes got it to update his msn space too, so that the viewers of that know when hes updated his blog. Check his homepage out too, rofl. legend!

  • Sunday the 3rd

    I dont mean the 3rd of a month, i mean this is nearly my 3rd sunday-day in a row! woo! I knew they would ring me to work today, so as planned i have a day of rest tomorrow. i have things to post, cheques to pay in, and bank accounts to open.

    I have been writing lots of new material, mainly in the form of rap’s, and my film. I wanted to make a horror film, but i didnt want to make a cheesy one. I had my ideal location (old mansfield hospital) i had a rough idea of a very very basic tiny weeny ickle plot in my head (i knew it was gonna be some kind of urban exploration mission lol) but apart from that, i had no idea. I started writing it with one thing in mind, and then towards the end i changed my mind, so theres a twist in it that i didnt even realise was there untill i re read it.

    I need a few people to help me though. I could really do with another digital vid camera, with a tripod, and someone to operate it. The plan is that half of it, im not in it, and that bit is filmed like a normal film. I.e they are acting like the cameras aint there. And i will help film these parts with another camera man. And then the other half of the film is filmed kinda blair witch stylee, but not as jittery.

    I have it written from start to finish.

    I need the following:

    3 X Friends to be part of the urbex  expedition with me.

    1 X Camera man, with camera.

    1 X Somone with a van

    1 X Help from a certain urbex forum

    MAYBE 1 x girl who can play dead! 😀

    Apart from that, i  recon we should be ok.

    Any takers? Muhahahaahaha 😀

  • Just as expected.

    I have recently received a phone call from Thor asking if i could work tomorrow from 7am to prob 7pm. I knew they would ring and ask me, so i booked the tuesday off work. Im really glad i did now too, else id be bloody nackered by the time i got to work!

    Went into town for a short while last night. Dunno whats going off at the mo i quite enjoy going down – just to see new faces, and meet up with some old ones. I think town is one of the only places i see old school friends.

    I saw loads of people i knew last night, it was great. But its nothing like when me and dave used to sell weed. Wholly shit, everywhere we went we used to have people sayign “Alright olly” “Alright dave” – and we’d have no idea who they were! It used to happen ALL the time, now it happens once in a blue moon. We still do get the odd person introducing themselves to us and we have no idea who they are. I guess thats the problem with selling weed, and smoking it too. 🙂

    LSOM tonight, i hope its not overshadowed by CN’s little get together. We’ll probably have a few people leave about  9pm to go up there. Ah well, one day they’ll be shut down.
