Torture. Why do we torture ourselves over our past, or over something that we cannot control.? Why do we look back through the mistakes we have made and allow it to feed our self-pity. Self-pity, a lovely feeling, like anger. It makes the adrenalin flow. Makes you feel full and warm. But ultimately will leave you feeling empty and horrible. I could say so much now that would hurt people, would cause breaks in relationships and make people dislike me, but I won’t because it would just be me feeding my own sense of self importance.
So I won’t.
But at least now, the lies have stopped…. haven’t they.??
Anyway… HUGE well done to Mike Jordan, the privateer touring car driver who won in a year old car at today’s BTCC race meeting in Ireland (Mondello Park). Some great racing, and it just goes to prove that someone driving a year old car without a big budget works team behind them, can win at the highest level of UK tin top racing. Plus he is 48.! Nice one.
Oh and well done to the German winning in F1 again. Lol.
It wasn’t a bad weekend. Got a couple of nice photos… ANGEL and SARAH. Aren’t they lovely.?! I could eat them both on a cracker.! Lol.
And a big helloooooo to Ellysia, who was kind enough to add me on her myspace profile. She is lovely, 
. She also is selling her car, sooo….

The London marathon was run today. Now I am a huge fan of motorsport. No two ways about it. But, when it comes to the whole “watching people running” thing, I can never see the attraction. For me the basic lure of something like F1 or IRL or CART is the danger element. Knowing that someone is risking their own life to travel at speeds of up to 250mph whilst sitting an inch off the floor and surrounded by petrol (or methanol in the case of the US championships) is a very compelling thing to see. I have harped on before about the deaths in F1, and having recently watched a REALLY bad video of Greg Moore’s fatal in a CART race a few years ago, it brings back the obscene forces and truly amazing incidents that can occur and that people are actually WILLING to risk their very soul to do.!
In conclusion, the best way to make watching the marathon fun.? Land mines. Hidden of course, every few miles. Lets see Paula Radcliffe manage a squat without losing both of her butt cheeks to a pound of C4, or maybe look on amused as Haile Gebrselassie’s left foot is blown bloodily over the top of the Cutty Sark. It sounds like a wild idea I know, but I think it would still be safer than risking having a holiday in South America or, Thailand…
…or Skegness.

More photos then… WHY oh WHY and AREN’T WE CUTE
