I went to MacDonald's drive through as it seems everyone else does for some reason. Then I drove to college to show off even though it's about 3/4 mile up the road

I remember when I passed, I jumped in my Standard Corsa LS 1.2, picked up the lads, we all wore Caps, played a crap hip hop tape really loud and shouted at random Fanny in town.

Oh the memories

I was like this with my dad coming back down the motorway in my 306 got through a few gaps and he got lost behind in the traffic. Although my 1.9TD was no match for his 2.0t and he soon caught me up

Had my Golf, went down the motorway to see how fast it would go, 90mph

That night went to New Romney in Kent, I had been on the road for a year before anyway as I had a moped and done about 5,000 miles on it which at 50mph everywhere is a lot of miles

5,000 miles I think I did about 1500 in half a year or so but I had a new rev counter put in as mine was broke so the mileage got reset

Roared down to school, picked up 2 mates and we drove 100 miles to norfolk coast, walked along beach and drove back again!

Then me being cool went and crusied round all night with the tunes up, shades on and picked up some younger filth!

Was out till 3am, got home and realised i forgot key, my folks were on holiday and got back at 10am the next day

SO

I slept in the car on the drive

Went for a country drive, ended up getting lost in the thickest fog ever.

Made it home 2 hours later (had to drive at 10-15mph)
