Fleetwood Mac – Tusk 3:37

We’ve got a new header for the site, a bit more grungy, no more mustang, something a little more relevant, Ra, keen to sift through piles of CSS garbage to get it up?

My name is down for transfer to Levin’s shiny new BP, So yes, Sarah and I are moving to Levin, around the 25th of October.
Leaving party sometime before hand? you can bet your arse we’ll do something like that, fingers crossed there’ll be enough nice weather to give the brazier one more burn.

Too all the crew in Levin..Ima cummin’ home hic huic

Architecture in Helsinki – Do The Hurricane- 03:58

Things are going well for once, Sarah’s been in fairly great moods, were coming up to week 18, which is when most ladies really start to show.

So I’m trying my hardest not to add to Sarah’s already self conscious craziness, by keeping my mouth firmly shut/ avoiding conversations about her butt, and peppering her with compliments.

Sigur Ros – Saeglopur 7:08

I’m deciding wither or not I want to GTi up my front grill, I recently watched an episode of Wheeler Dealers, in which they restored a Mark 1 Gti for resale, the Grill bought was a dud, but the guy made the best of it with some primer and red paint, and I personally love the look, especially on a white car.

Genesis – I Can’t Dance 4:57

As someone who enjoys listening to music while he drives I’ve been racking my brains over how/where to install some 6.5″ 2 way’s in the mk2 golf.
Preferably without cutting up my door cards.

Any idea’s? Previous solutions?

Stevie Nicks & Sheryl Crow – If you ever did believe 3:44

So we went to pick-a-part to get some parts from the sad looking Jetta, I ended up getting quite a few extra little interior parts (as chronicled in the following photos) One of my main gripes has been the busted drivers seat.
We grabbed the drivers seat out of the Jetta, unfortunately its in fairly sad condition as is, and also lacks a switch to make it drop forward (its a 4 door seat) upside is im not laying down while driving anymore, and no-one climbs into or out of the car through the drivers seat anyway.
