Uni exams are over for me, another 6 months before the next lot.

Means that I have now got 5 weeks of no uni or employer work commitments, and also 5 weeks to play Mr Mum, so maybe I can have some fulltime fun around here. I've even sussed out how to heat the garage using the roof fitted gas heater.

Woo hoo! 5 weeks of nothing to do but play with minis, the boy and Ausmini.

First bit of fun starts tommorrow with a trip to Canberra to pick up a Mini K shell off 9YTAH (Mick). This one is going to be carved up for the S repairs.

Lucky you. How good does it feel when you finish exams.

I have one more exam next Friday, then a two week window before we go to Europe for 5 weeks Then back to it all again

Hoping to get my shell rolling by the time we go.

Enjoy your free time.

I finished at 1 pm yesterday and was meant to be home to go shoe shopping for/with girl and then out to dinner for a belated birthday feed at Lygon street.

I stumbled through the door at 9ish..oooh...soooo much trouble....

well my mini has not been registered since september last year.
hopefully get regoed int eh next couple of weeks.
i probably spend more time working ont he mini then i do on uni most of the time.
people keep telling me i should be a mechanic instead of an IT person.

Yeah but you have to EARN the money to spend on the mini. Mechanics still don't get paid very well.

And if you mechanic'd all day long you might not be so keen on your mini anymore.

Kinda like fight club too, you can turn back up at your nice clean white collar desk job with bashed knuckles, manky infected cuts, grease stains on your neck, cuts on the back of your head from the bonnet hook...
