1. Am I too late to come to this year's cottaging experience?
2. If I am not too late, will there be a bed far enough away from humans for me?
3. Who do I pay money to and how?

So turns out that I'm now the proud owner of a mental car.
Picked up an 07 plate Audi S6 this morning. A tiny 5.2L V10 Q car.
Spent the entire drive to work going from slow to warp speed enjoying the wall of noise. Should probably just go an turn my driving license in now.
Pics to follow. |
