Had a 6 hour drive to Heathrow (flying to Holland to watch Everton) on Wednesday from Liverpool, then my flight got delayed by 2 hours. Eventually got on the plane and sat on it for 3 hours before the Captain cancelled the flight cos his Cabin Crew would exceed their permitted hours.Have you ever hard such crap, it is an hours flight to Amsterdam??

Obviously missed the match that had cost me £400 for travel, hotel and match ticket and then had a 5 hour drive back to Liverpool today as i stayed in London due to not being able to drive after drinking too many Buds during the delay.

The only silver cloud in this whole monstrous two days was the number of Lotus that i spotted during the trip. Seen a cracking reddish coloured Europa on the M25, the first Europa that i have seen on the road. Really really stunning.

Spotted a Blue Elise with Gold wheels that had either broken down or had been pulled by the Police on the opposite side of the M25 to me. If you are the owner, how do you keep your car looking so clean in this weather??

Also spotted a grey Exige and three Elans. 3 Elans during two days when i have only ever seen one on the road in my whole life !!!!

So to conclude, despite being totally pissed off with not getting to the game, if you was driving one of those cars you put a smile back on my face so thanks.
