More Bloody Old Places Than You Could Bloody Shake Your Bloody Stick At.

I did not bloody blog yesterday as i was bloody out all bloody day with a bloody old man in a bloody old town, looking at some bloody old trains in a bloody old building and some bloody old cars ouside before going towards a bloody old town with a bloody old street which was bloody around in bloody 1400!
I was in York yesterday and it was that which i am going to blog about today. As you have guessed, its a bloody old place, with a National Railway Museum which my dad took me round. Might sound boring to some people but he at least put some effort into taking us out, which he doesnt so much of anymore. They had a Japanese Bullet train and a Royal train inside, so you know that because your too poor to go oversea, or your not royalty, you can see what your missing out on. Thanks National Railway Museum... pricks. However it was free so i didn't whine and though i would at least look around, and too be fair, i did look around. For about 10 minuets before messing around with things and laughing at a man called "Sir Daniel Gooch". After much laughing and bordum, we headed out into York and during the walk i needed to borrow a lighter off someone. Unfortunantly I even cocked that up, because Race For Life was on. So i when i went up to a woman (WHO DID NOT HAVE A MASSIVE SERIAL NUMBER ON HER CHEST) and asked "Can I borrow a lighter?", i didn't expected to get the amount of names shouted at me. I wasn't trying to be funny, but maybe if she had the numbers, I wouldn't of bothered the girl. However, after that (and a walk down The Shambles for an ice cream). We left York. This was yet another massive task because it has a one-way system designed by MC.Esher. It had roads which led you back down the route you just came and when we finally got to the way out we needed to go... WE STILL COULDN'T LEAVE! Bloody road works, then the diversion signs telling us how to get out of York disappered so we couldn see how to get out of the place! The heat didn't help my mood either as i was desperate to get out of York. Bloody York.
Finally, however, we got out of York and on the way to the REAL day out that was planned. An awsume driving experiance for our father, where he got to drive:

1) Lamborghini Gallardo
2) Ferrari 360
3) Aston Martin V8 Vantage
4) Porshe 911 Turbo... Which was out of service, so it was an Audi R8 instead.

He drove each one around an airstrip and each he got to drive for 4 laps of the course. Given the choice, he would take the Aston Martin. I would have to agree. Other cars there included:

Subaru Impreza
Ariel Atom
Aston Martin DB9
Lotus Elise
BMW M3
