Back in the days where I didn't have a "miles remaining" on screen display I used to be fairly conservative - filling up about 10 miles after my petrol warning light came on (which generally appears when you've got about 40-50 milesfalsePatrice2006-09-15T08:44:00+01:002006-09-15T07:49:05Z2006-09-15T07:49:05Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3485760.post-115830654517796757Career Break!As you may or may not be aware, I'm having a career break and sodding off to Australia for just under a year in November.
A big, unexpected step? Damned right. But a great one.

Once is bad enough. Twice is very poor.
On Monday (Snakes On A Muthafuckin Plane) I had been given a lift to the cinema, but for some reason still brought my car keys with me.

Massively hyped. Fan dictated. Clearly it was going to be the worst thing ever.
I saw this on Monday and I'm happy to say it's not. I hope my brother won't mind me quoting from a text message he sent me regarding the film, as this really does sum it all up:

It was funny in my head. Not entirely sure what happened but, sod it, I promised it'd be here and I'm sure you've been utterly desperate for it so, well, here it is.
Sorry.

Between DRM, lawsuits and general irratation coming from working with computers for a living I've got used to IT being frustrating.
But this definitely got a grin from me:
