Well, here I was, Sunday afternoon, bored and falling asleep in front of the F1. I thought, what can I do to wake myself up ? 

1, Tidy the house ? Nope, all done
2, Go up to Edinburgh to The Fringe ? Absolutely not !
3, Wash the car ? Well maybe............
4, Go and drive the car ? What a brilliant idea...........

So, off for a drive I went, only did about 60 miles and it was a mix of slow Sunday driver roads and interesting quick twisties but I really enjoyed it. 

I decided to do the whole trip using the paddles to change gear. It was great driving through the towns with the sun roof open and listening to the car bang and pop coming down through the gears and sing its head off on overtakes and up through the box when the road was clear. 

I can deffinately recommend just going out for a drive, after all, it is
