Ok, so as a first entry, I thought i'd use a little bit of time to share with the world the kind of things I get up to on an average day, so over the course of today I will update this entry to reflect anything that I actually get up to.

So... Today it is 21st May 2008

6:50 am
Well, i'd set my alarm for 8am, as I had quite a late night last night, but living above a veterinary practice in the center of town kind of makes it tough to ever get a decent sleep, as...

Well as the family has gone and taken a bite out of the motorsport world and started down the role of race marshalling ( im about to do my grading meet to lose the "traniee" badge and gain course marshal status ) along with my eldest who has just started as a Cadet.

My first days racing as a marshal at Donington Park for the BARC winter series.

This was 4 qualifying sessions and 8 races throughout the day.

Took the wife and kids with me to the meeting as they wanted to watch the racing and the spare ticket they send worked well ( under 12's are free ).

7.00am Sign-on ( probably the worst bit about marshaling )

Arrived at circuit at 6.30am ( didn't want to be late for first meeting ) parked in paddock...

Well its now January 2008 and I have put my name down for marshal training at Cadwell Park in March this is an opportunity to receive free fire training and marshal basics to give you an understanding into how to perform the job and what is expected. I also received my NE area magazine with some other information on who to contact to do different venues and racing.

Looking forward to that with anticipation as it is the real start of my role as Tango man/Race Marshal
