Jun 19th 2006 Been shopping for car insurance

Oh what a horrible daunting task this is, so far the cheapest I have found for my Peugeot 306 (1.8I (99 ON) 5DR MERIDIAN 1761cc 5DR) is £1700 with Tesco and the highest was £2700!!! Norwich Union, shocking. But what makes it worst is that I put in a number plate of a 1.1 Citroen Saxo and I still got 1700!! Whats going on there’s a big difference between and 1.1 and a 1.8!

I have found this site pretty useful you stick in your details and its search about 50 different companies all at once :) Quinn seemed a alright quote of 1735 but Tesco is the cheapest right now i’ll keep your updated on my insurance quotes and stuff lol.

As you can probably see the site has changed quite a bit what with the new design and new features something that really needed doing was the post tags so I went back and did over a years worth of post tags so everything is now in order :) If you haven;t noticed already there’s a new but old archive on the site now too, after tracking my old blog from 2004 I imported all them posts too.

The design is nowhere near done yet but the main features are there the site load is a little bit slow but I am working on improving this it all takes time :) the top and bottom of the pages are not done either. Well i’ve kinda now calmed down from what I was like in the last post hopefully I wont do it again or i’ll only have 1 more keyboard left :P

Still kinda down but cheered up while i’m at home tomorrow back to college but its the last week thank god! then it wont be long till I goto Spain YAY! Oh I got an award evening tomorrow so I might even post tomorrow or Wednesday too yet. And thats about it really my car in still in Sutton st James being sorted out or something not too sure about that really but anyways not as if I am driving it lol.

Friday got wrecked after college so did quite a few others I think we are having another one tomorrow too :P so that will be fun. I am now bored I guess i’ll get back to shopping for car insurance again xD if you have any places I can check leave a comment that be nice thanks :)

Finding the right car auto insurance has hectic task at times and requires detailed analysis of rates and features offered by insurance companies. Usually car insurance rates vary by model of the car and the location. Besides auto insurance, there are other corporate services on the offer like business life insurance. Business insurance may differ depending on how much you have invested. A low investment business falling in SME category will consider small business insurance deals rather. Level of investment and returns can easily be ascertained using a simple investment calculator.

Jun 14th 2006 When it gets too much…

My answer is to drink and drink until u get pissed and don't give a f**k anymore and do stupid things like this in your anger:

Totally not my character I know but things a just really hurting me and its making me do some really stupid things. Do you know what? I can't wait to finish college and f**k off to spain for 2 weeks it will give me some time to clear my head!

Friday last day of college well kind of we have got catch up week next week but I dont know if I could take it anymore and I think friday we are gonna have a piss up after college too. Hope the weather stays good i'll just buy a bottle of vodka and down it I dont care what happens to me.

Worthless post I know but I have nothing else to say. Bye.

Jun 3rd 2006 Theres always something

Well Tuesday I went for my mock driving test which when great perfect really happy then Wednesday was the big day MY DRIVING TEST! Something I and most family and friends was looking forward to and saying good luck to me, so there I was waiting in the room for the examiner to come… eventually he showed up and guess what? "Oh i'm sorry we are going to have to cancel your test". Apparently the girl before me had ran away from her car, and the examiners are NOT aloud to drive the car back (stupid DSA ruling) so the poor bloke had to walk back!

So that really pissed me off after spending £90 for no real purpose but I do get a new test… wait a minute.. 29th June you gotta be kidding me! I really am not happy about that! Car goes in for MOT tuesday so that will be good hopefully it passes (one reason why I aint hardly spending any money lol). Me and shelly are getting along fine well saying that there are people out there trying to break us up (shellys ex's mate or something) Sad really init?
