when you are driving (yes, I drove somewhere) up to Sheffield on a wet Friday night and the petrol gauge is flickering horribly low. It’s probably not the best to avoid stopping at an Esso on principal especially when the road ahead holds no more petrol filling opportunities. But this is what I did – luckily another petrol station was up the road so I could burn some less politically-fuelled petrol.

got to sheffield at 1055pm and arrived at the classic rock bar(!) where a mates band was playing. However as we stepped out the car the words “Thanks and good night” drifted across the wet and windy car park. Oh well – it had only taken 3 hours to get there!….

“D” party this evening. I’m going as a dunce, some photos coming soon!
