Back in LA, have rented a Mustang for the weekend.
Initial thoughts, the interior isn't as nice as the Camaro, and it's not particularly quick for something with 300hp (I only got the V6 model, so compared to the Camaro SS, it's quite the slouch).
It handles pretty well, and makes a decent noise. It's also a little less wide then the Camaro, so slightly easier to drive.Haven't taken it onto the freeway yet, did a small bit of PCH and canyon roads so far.

I've subscribed to iTunes Match and listen to my music through that, however I often have to switch to foreign iTunes stores to check things and each time I do that all my Match content disappears.
When I re-sign in to the UK Store it asks me if I want to add this computer to iTunes Match and makes me enter my password again. It then scans for my Match content.
Is there any way to stop this happening or is it just the way it works? -
Envious. I love pony cars. Especially a bright yellow Camaro.
I'm slightly disappointed you didn't get a Challenger though!
The Challenger is wider still, over 2 meters I believe- personally I would have gone for a Challenger, in White, Vanishing Point style, but was over-ruled by my colleagues because the Camaro was Yellow. It was the 400bhp SS model so didn't half shift, but was really too wide to enjoy driving anywhere except the freeway.
I think for driving satisfaction the Mustang would have been the way to go, but for out-and-out coolness, the Challenger wins by a country mile.
tl;dr: I rented the shittest car out of a selection of nice cars.

Last time I drove in SF I was in a near-2 metre wide bright yellow Camaro SS. I've never driven anything so wide in my life (except a Hummer, but that was off-road). I found San Fran to be a lot more like London for driving, (bus lanes, bikes, etc.) than LA.
Also, haven't Americans ever heard of stopping distances? Even at speed on the Freeway if you leave a car-sized gap in front, someone will zip in and fill it. -

Barnet 3 Chester 0.
Better team won. I think it shows that they are full-time, and only just got relegated, and maintained most of their squad. This year is not going to bring Chester's 3rd championship in a row, but our fans were still better.
Another Conference fan? Cambridge United here... How'd you rate your chances for the coming season?

Rolex Servicing, what's the deal?
I've had my Air-King for just over 10 years now (built July 2004) and it's never had a service. Dealer initially advised a service after two years then every year after that, but I think he was just trying to rinse me, it's not missed a beat. Is it worth a pre-cautionary service (which tbh, I can ill afford) or just keep waiting until it stops working? Is that likely to happen soon? It's not a daily wearer and sits idle a lot of the time.
