Anyone up to anything interesting this weekend then?

I have the Scottish Sporting Car Club prize giving to go to (preceded by a bite to eat) this evening.

Tomorrow, a wee trip to Aberdeen.

Sunday various plans and things to do - nothing of interest

Will try and fit some time in for a cycle somewhere, and a few wee jobs to be done on the elise.

Test riding a motorsickle. Taking my mum out shopping.

Other than that, having a kip, most likely.

That's great Ross. Will you be based in Aberdeen?

On Saturday, I will still be in my forties.

Heading down to the St Andrews Fairmont this afternoon.

My Exige will be waiting there for me all clean and shiny and rejuvenated thanks to those lovely people at Murray Motors. :)

Tuesday, I start a new job myself. :)

All very exciting (apart from my age).

Have a nice weekend everyone. :)

Where are you going to put your Mum's shopping if you have her on the back?
