The Blog Rat is part of my split personality of student journalist Stephen Humphries.

Reading these rants can bring comedy to lifes little niggles.

These rants are mostly one sided and make rediculous generlisations of people and life.

The majority of posts are revolved around Stephen's part-time supermarket job, where he works as a cashier on a cigerette kiosk.

Be prepared for some ill punctuation and the occasional spelling error.

Car wash with an attitude.

NOTHING looks worse than trying to look cool while driving a car that needs a half decent wash, no matter how expensive your sunglasses are or how loud the music is.

Today I passed the local car wash: Arc where the sign read: "Car wash from £2.30." Having pulled into the car park I decided to scratch around for some much needed funds.

I found £2.50 just 50 pence short of a pre-wash before I'd be sent through the machine.

I was going for the £2.30 express wash which offers no more than a rinse and blow dry when the attendent said: "For an extra 50p you can have a better wash." I replied "Yeah I know, but I don't have any more."

He said: "Well it's only a little bit extra," and so I responsed again "Yeh I know but I don't have the extra" to which he replied: "OK, well we can't guarantee it will clean your car," before giving me a filthy look.

Excuse me? A car wash that not only demands extra on arrival but can't guarantee the motor will come out looking any better?

He was right, it didn't.
