Leads to engine damage

It turns out work isn't as distracting as I would've hoped, as I get quite an abundance of time to myself my mind is free to wander, which is not presently enjoyable.

Other distractions have been plentiful however, last night I went out to let off some fireworks in a park behind someone's house, the owner of which was nice enough to cook us burgers and give us choc ices afterwards. There were nine of us in all, including some absolute legends that I haven't seen in far too long, so it was a very profitable trip. The only downside was that I didn't get back 'till about midnight, not giving me much sleep before having to get up at 6 for work this morning, leaving me rather tired as I type this.

I've been spending my breaks at work avidly reading Redline magazine, and now that I'm entering the world of full time work I think it just might be worth a subscription. But I'll wait until I've read Sport Compact Car and have a full time job before I do that.
Redline has introduced to me an excellent looking event for next year in the form of Trax, spoke of as the ultimate automotive one day event in the UK, featuring track races, drag, drift, thousands of cars on display and a massive trade area, I'll definitely have to take the gang along to Silverstone for this.
Another slightly more epic event that I'll be teaming up with Paul for as Bertie and Andrew join forces, is Stales To Naples, a rally which navigates Europe exactly as the name suggests. The only catch is that you have to do it in a car worth less than £100, so full on banger derby hilarity is assured. My brother even says he'll be entering, so it is truly lined up to be an absolutely monumental trip, assuming the duct tape, super glue, and Paul's epic mechanic skills manage to hold things together until the finish line.

An unwelcome distraction comes in the form of Redline the film, and I can easily say that this is one of the worst movies I have ever had the misfortune to witness in my entire life. I am currently too tired to waste my time going into how unbelievably atrocious this film is, but I assure you that as good as the trailer may look, it is diabolical. I am positive the sole reason that the script is such a piece of toilet paper and the actors are dressed up homeless people is because they blew the entire budget on all the incredible cars the screen is intermittently bathed in. I'm almost tempted to recommend this film just so that everyone that reads this is entirely clear on how deadly serious I am, watching this film is like watching the imagination of a bored nine year old in high definition.
