So after 7 days of pondering, I have decided to keep the USB-3G-modem-stick-thingy from T-Mobile, it'll cost me £15 per month - or, as I like to say, 50p per day. At the moment it doesn't get used that much but once I start university in September I'm sure I'll find myself using it a lot more. And after I end my gym membership in a couple months I'll be 10 quid a month better off!
Finally got my journalism folder handed into college on the last possible day, my teacher marked it over the weeked and the motorator said it was a model answer and will be used to show other students next year. Amazing, considering most of it was written in about 3 hours...
The Goodwood Festival of Speed crept up on me rather quickly this year, its in 3 days, so sadly I'm unable to go as I'm working. Boo! Sunday there then drive to France on Monday would have been epic but, alas, it wasn't to be.
However, we are hopefully going on a roadtrip to France sometime next week if my friend isn't working and my Mum doesn't change her mind. Should be great fun and our plans to film a TopGear-style montage should be a laugh. Will have to remember, to quote Micheal Caine from The Italian Job, "in this country, they drive on the wrong side of the road". Oh, and the speed limits are a tad different for young drivers, and they use KM instead of miles, and they speak French.....what could possibly go wrong?
I would love to keep the blog up-to-date while on the road but I'd imagine the roaming charges for the USB stick will be proposterous, so unless we find free Wi-Fi I won't be bothering. The film will be edited and put on YouTube at some point, so watch out for that.
