Hey, everyone - I've just taken a very short amount of time off from last-minute packing to come in and say bye to you all. Most people know, I'm going to the States for a while to take care of my grandfather. Then it'll be off to Uni, so I might not be around here until early October. Have a good month everyone, I will be back, be that a promise or a threat

See you all later. I've gotta finish my packing.

Cheers, mate *carefully puts the care package in his suitcase, takes Flammie's shot for him, and has a toke, before walking out the door*

Well Ive gotten up early today, mainly to get my sleep schedule right for the school year, but somewhat to have a last day with the morning crew until Friday, as that is the only weekday that I dont have morning classes. So how is everyone thats here?

Greetings, Fas. I hope the moving was not too bad. Hows it going, man?

@Eery No problem-just been doing some catchups on other threads. Cheers, mate. How was your weekend? And you happy with the car's performance?

Had a great weekend. Took the car to Hasselt (read: the city) on Saturday and it ran smoothly (I even got the slopes down

). It doesn't accelerate as fast, but I'm glad I got used to shifting gears manually again so quickly. Got 2 DVD's, another Pratchett and a game and spent what free time I had on Sunday on Warcraft III

- how was your weekend? ** takes a hit from his spliff **

Not too bad. The only real negatives were I had to do a bit of cleaning, and my parents were fighting on Saturday, but that subsided by Sunday. On Saturday, I got to enjoy lots of college American football games. That was enjoyable. On Sunday, I watched a CART and NASCAR race. Other than those things I spent the time on SYM. Pretty good last weekend of the 2 month vacation.

I never learned standard, Ive been driving automatic, always. Much easier, I think.

I agree that it's much easier - I just had to re-learn to drive a manual because there were no automatics available (apart from a Mercedes that was slightly off-budget

) ** takes a drink from his can of beer **

Thats good news then E-man.
Moving was a hassel, but all done now.
I am so kicking myself though...i should think before doing stupid stuff....really think.
So how was the weekend all, i was moving what were you guys up to_

Tybaltus · Post by **Tybaltus** » Mon Sep 02, 2002 7:27 am

@Eery Must have been fun to learn.

Yeah, Mercedes can get a bit pricy, but you werent willing to spoil yourself? While your wallet would take a hit, it would be fun, wouldnt it?

@Fas Just look up to my previous post, that about covers my weekend.

Good god no...you arent driving a car if you drive in automatic.
You are just guiding the car and putting in the gas....*shakes head in pain* You dont know the beauty of the car unless you drive in manual...the natural way to drive a car

It would, Ty, it certainly would

- but I might as well go straight for a Lamborghini or Ferrari, then

. No, seriously, my current car is affordable and still looks pretty

. I'll worry about getting a classier model, once this one has served its purpose ** takes another hit from his spliff **

Indeed. I own a nice small car too-a 2000 Ford Escort. It isnt that bad. It gets me from point A to point B safely, so what more could I ask for?

Totally agree!
Putting the pedal to the medal and driving of with screaming tyres. Only shifting when the engine is making waaaaaay to many rotations.... ahh What can be better?
