We met up early at ED and met up with other maxxd.com member that were going.

Stacy grabbed a ride with Fee & D, whilst me & Laurina went down in our car.I Was on stand for the maxxd.info lads and this was my first time at the show. Me & Stacy got there about 8am and Dave came and fetched us in the van over to the exhibitors stand where i needed to be.

Overall the show was good, but it did have some tinges of ‘chav’ in it. It might be me just getting older but…I seem to be leaning more towards the power and speed side of modifying rather than leary bodykits. I found the Peugeotsport & Pug1off.com the most interesting of the show.

Overall it was enjoyable albeit for the incident at the end of the show, where a couple of members shown their true colours. It was shady what they did as they didn’t have the nerve to say something to us.

A phonecall would have sorted it….pfft!

Anyhoo. Day was good not sure if i’d go again though.

Lianne (My ex) MSN’s me to say that Laurina’s parents evening was @ 6.30 and as usual she couldn’t make it. Now before I had never been informed of these and have been dead keen to get involved with Laurina’s learning. So I rang the school to find out and now I am on the list to be informed when these happen. Great :D

I got to the school about 6.20 and met the head teacher, she shown me to the classroom where laurina is taught. Mer her teachers and OMG! did she get good reports. Both two teachers couldn’t say enough good things about her. Hardworking, Attentive, Polite, A pleasure to teach. It really made my day :) I am so proud of her it’s unreal. It also turns out that she is taking extra maths lessons in an advanced class to gain the edge and to stretch her a little.

So after the meeting I went round to tell lianne how she was doing and to give her a big hug and to tell laurina how proud I was of her because she is doing well in school.

I think she’s earned the extra special present I have got for her birthday :)

Heres a pic of my daughter and me @ Disney World

The stuff I type has ended up on www.base14.info/Dual.htm number 62 is an excerpt of this blog. It seems a bonjovi discussion forum has linked here and somebody at girlracer.me.uk has a link too.

It’s nice to see that I am still number one for Stephen Popkin when searched on but often makes me wonder what weirdos are out the reading this stuff and compling a profile of your life for them to have in a cupboard somewhere where they sit and worship you.

It’s been a busy weekend for me, having the photoshoot for the car done ready for maxxd magazine proved difficult to get the car clean between the snow sleet & rain on the sunday morning. We succsessfully got that done and can’t wait to see the outcome of the pictures.
