Keep rollin', rollin' rollin'...

I got stopped by the police which is a bit irritating.

Apparently it could be an offence to play your music very loudly when you're driving. I say it could be an offence because the cop didn't really elaborate on exactly which law I was breaking.

He just said, after pulling me over; "you're going to have to turn the music down, mate - you can't drive with it like that."

Of course I could be all hardcore and say that I said to him "yeah, whatever.." and then drove off and turned it up again, but that would be a fib.

The guy who first came to the car was not that hot but his mate who wandered over was actually quite fit. Cue a million police / porno-style thoughts. Truncheon, handcuffs, bla.

They didn't fine me but just told me to turn the music down. Rather nice of them, I have to say. Not nice of them to break up the disco in my car, but nice of them to not fine me.

Um. Do you know - that's the most exciting thing that's happened to me in a while.

Which brings me to the next point...

As you know, I have a really testy relationship with doing this.

Fundamentally, I just think that a blog, well... I wrote about it here, not two months after starting this thing.

Funnily enough, that was on a Monday too.

Anyway, so the point is that I want to excuse myself for a while.

Remember, after 'Mermaids' and the Shoop Shoop Song, Cher went away for a while and came back even better.

And after 'Look Who's Talking' John Travolta also went quiet until his massive comeback in 'Pulp Fiction'.

Think of it like a rugby match. At some point there has to be a half time, to take a break.

Add this blog to your Google Reader and when we make our return, you'll be the first to know.

Pretend that it's your friend who's gone on holiday and who doesn't have mobile phone access.

I don't really know what else to say because this isn't a good-bye.

So, I guess I'll see you soon.
