Default I'm bored....

I'm bored, so I'm going for a drive. In my car. My lovely car.

Why?


Because I can.

And its my car. My lovely car....





PS. I'll try and give an acurate 'description' of the drive when I get back...

I sometimes feel like that - driving just for the sake of it!

I used to start work at 3am and the roads are clear then, but not clear enough to tempt me out now. I must be getting soft!

If I travel to work at 4am it takes me 22 minutes, at 7am its takes me 35 minutes and at 8.30 more like 50 minutes. The journey is 25 miles and 21 of it on the M27. School holidays makes the world of difference though because when I get to work and start driving the little darlings get on the bus and abuse the driver on their way into town to 'hang around'

I would prefer kids to be at school then we only get abuse for two hours a day instead of nine or ten hours :lol:

Obviously not all kids do this and its a very small minority but you see a hood and wait for trouble, never mind it pays for my beer

My lad had a lot of friends but since he has moved up to high school he is on his own a lot and as started to stay in when his mates call for him. He's told me that he is making new friends because he does not like what the old ones have started doing and does not want to be part of a group of people who act the way they do. I'm very proud of him.
My friends got into drugs and other types of trouble when I was John's age. I decided I preferred to go fishing and treat people with respect. It was hard and to get through high school at times difficult (luckily I was more than capable of standing up for myself).
There are a lot of good kids out there and they need the support of those in power, there seems to be precious little discipline or punishment for the idiots.
