Didn't bother with Brands Hatch - a three hour round trip not including whatever the Dartford tunnel queues and a long roadwork section round Colchester were like, plus the cost of fuel & topping up the Dart Charge account for a two hour race didn't seem worth it in the end.
Instead I popped into town for a loaf of bread and came back with an additional half dozen Wispa Gold bars which were reduced to12p each and a Lindor mint bar which someone had left in the paid for checkout area
. One cup of coffee later I got the lawnmower out & beheaded the dandelions and vacuumed up the fallen leaves from my neighbour's tree. Then it was out on the bike with the commentary from Brands being streamed through headphones reaching a pub just as the Italian Grand prix started, so hooked up to thier WiFi and watched that on the phone while having a couple of cold pints.
Do I really have to go back to work next week?
