Sunday 20th April 2008

Seems there was yet another reason for me to have my car detailed this weekend. ITV are screening the Back To The Future trilogy from this Saturday afternoon over the next three weeks (they screened it on ITV2 a few months back late on Saturday nights). I only noticed this on the EPG this morning, while waiting for the football on Sky Sports 1. I thought I would check what was being shown in the afternoon across channels one to six (Sky One). I had to record a part of it and take some screen grabs for Pav. Something tells me that Pav does not have a green Adidas tracksuit in his wardrobe circa 1985 to wear like Biff when applying the second coat of wax (but not Turtle Wax) to my A3.

Talking of Pav, I received a text yesterday morning which he had sent at 01.10am. (yes way past midnight when he said he would usually finish work on the car for the day). The verdict was that the car had more swirls than last time. Nearly twelve hours later he had text me again (I picked up the message after the football) with a progress report in the form of two MMS. The scratch had practically been removed and all that remains are two small dents only noticeable at close range. He was cracking on. A further text later in the afternoon confirmed the final removal of the scratch but rain meant the interior had yet to be started. Fantastic job, I am looking forward to picking up the car later on this afternoon. A bit of a bad show on my part today. I got up around 10am but with a stinging headache and just went back to bed. At midday I finally got out of bed to text my colleague and cancel our trip to the gym. I was just not up for it but hopefully will be back in tomorrow evening after work. I think once again, everything I had planned to get done today is pretty much shelved until next weekend. I will get ready, go collect my car and then when I return home think about working on a few bits and pieces before the weekend is out!
