Plus one. I've had three cups earlier and I'm having an iced one right now. Yup, sounds like a Thursday. One more day before the weekend.

Thursday indeed. It snowed this morning. Dumped a good 1"/hour between 3am-7am, leaving enough on the roads to turn people into complete morons beyond the complete morons drivers around here already are, just in time for the morning commute ಠ_ಠ

On the plus side, the B7 held to the quattro standard and handled like a dream through lotsa water, slush and ice Also, I'm loaded on a solid 30oz of coffee or so, the day's almost over, I have a stellar halloween party to go to tomorrow and I got some top notch bbq catered lunch for free today at the office

Sounds like an all around great day, quattro in the snow (I miss snow) and free BBQ...

Oh, and my stellar halloween party isn't until Saturday, not today.

Cup one, going down. Have a field problem next week, loaded up on coffee supplies yesterday, including some 20 oz. styrofoam cups to share some with some buddies... what a good friend I am!

Just found this thread while having my morning coffee and doing a search on timing belt work for my '05 A4 Quattro V6. Has about 78k so it's about time.

First day I drove the car after sitting for 45 days we had our first winter weather. Kenai to Homer, Alaska, 90 miles of heavy rain then snow, lots of slush and ice on the road. I love the way this car deals with those conditions.

Good morning from AK

Welcome Sean! Did you figure out the timing belt DIY?

Brad, how was your party?

Anyway. I just woke up. Haha. Didn't get home tip about 6. Dropped by Starbucks on the way home and got some coffee then went to bed. I'm about to do another run for another cup right now.

Did some grocery shopping while I had a pumpkin spice coffee. I'm debating another cup on this dreary day.

steady rain. not much wind. i'm pretty far inland, so I'm not worried. school is closed. government is closed. courts are closed. early voting is closed. seems like a lot of hype and hysteria for...well...rain. thankfully i am well stocked with coffee. into cup number 2 for the morning

...it's gonna be another day in the 70's - 80's in Cali.

I'm kinda sick of it. I want the cold.

Anyway, about to head out for a cup of coffee.
