Washed and cleaned car today it's looking good (no pics) 
thought i would take it out for a blast as haven't really booted it for a while..
put the smile back on my face, weather here has been hot, rain,hot rain, so roads were really greasy, all adds to the fun factor,
so much understeer giving it that wee bit too much throttle out of corners, few times was a bit scary..
spinning the wheels in 3rd virtually.....
was a great 1/2 hr out there on my own, released a wee bit of tension i think..
think i will keep it for month or so....
corsa + C20XE + greasy roads = scary fun

For someone who's just came through a life threatening accident and is lucky to be alive, you seem to be coping quite well.

yeah thought i better get out and do a bit of driving, mostly in ind estates..tonight though....
i feel fine behind the wheel, just a wee bit more aware and watch other drivers closer..
it's karen who i don't think is going to cope to well when it comes to her driving again...
