    Hi Liz,


    How did it go??  I can't believe she swears so much, that’s not good is it.  I know we all let slip sometimes (not really bad words though), but I have to be really angry before someone gets my back up.  I hope its all worth it though, if she's a good instructor you will forget the bad words.  The 3 point turn is not a good lesson, I can remember when I did mine, she (mine was a woman too), took me to an UPHILL road that was old and dipped down at the kerbs !!!!  I was forever slamming the breaks on and wrenching the handbreak out of its socket!! Very hard.  I failed my first test for driving too close to parked cars, even though there were cars parked either side of the road and when my instructor told me to drive on, another car started coming in the opposite direction, so I had no choice but to pull over.  I still failed.  Then the second time round, I stalled it on a roundabout (very embarrassing), but passed !!  how do you work that one out??  Anyway, good luck with it.  do you know when the test will be?  I think it’s a lot lot harder now because you have to do a written test as well don’t you.  I'd never pass if I had to do all it again. 


    I've always wanted to ask about the price for the house, but didn’t because I thought it was rude, but can well imagine that its very high, especially if its an old building.  I hope you get the asking price and can spend the money on the lovely church you work in, it will money very well spent.  It just shows how hard you’ve been working Liz, to have a whole week owing to you in overtime???  You must be worn out, I hope you’ve had a relaxing week, you certainly deserve it.  As for the pruning, I think Marie is right about cutting back to the nearest shoot for trees, I'm not sure about hedges though.  When you watch these gardening programmes on tv they just seem to either use the hand shears or electric and just seem to shave them, so I don’t think they matter too much about how close.  I wish my Mum was here, I would ask her.


    Its awful Liz isn't it when you get preoccupied with something and forget about things, then when you suddenly remember, it really does hit you.  Do you ever wake up in the morning and think things are normal, then when you realise everything that’s happened, it feels like it’s the first few days after everything, I hate it.  I sometimes wonder if its better to keep thinking about them most of the day, than forget for a few hours and then suddenly have it come back, I don’t know which is worse really.  Well, I'm going on and on again, so will get off and do a bit before hubby comes home.  Be back later no doubt to answer a few posts.  I hope you’ve had a good day Liz, its so good to see you here.  I know you read the posts, but its great to actually ‘speak’ to you.  Let us know how the driving went if you get time later.  See you soon, love jayne xxx

    hi marie

     

    yes i love hemsby, hopton and gt yarmouth,  theres so much for the kids to do isnt there?  hope weather will be good for all of us, and not like a normal bank holiday weekend.

     

    when are you going?  were going next friday.

     

    i have done some care work before, and my mum was one of the top carers in a home a few years back and she loved it, so i though she would love me to do something like that.

     

    speak soon, lots of love karen xxx

    Thanks Karen

     

    It sounds as if your GP visit was worth it and with your holiday next week to look forward to I hope you do start to feel a bit brighter and then a job on the horizon.  Do you know, I think things may be looking a bit rosier for you- I really hope so!

     

    Have a lovely holiday and I'll look forward to catching up with you next week (I think as I come home you go!!)

     

    Lots of love

    Hello girls

    It was my first time driving on a major roundabout in London today at rush hour and quite frankly I don't think I've ever been shouted at more in my life. By God, does my instrucutor push me to the limits! Yeah your right Jayne, I will have to pass a theory test aswell, God help me! I don't think Im ready for my practical test though as yet, still dont have good clutch control...why the hell doesnt everybody just buy an automatic car, I just don't understand!

    Try this link jayne, the house is on the web (I dont know if I will get into trouble doing this??)  http://www.foxtons.co.uk/SS/chpk0264883
    The housing market has gone bonkers has it not? If you do get on to the site you will see the wood floor i put down which im quite proud of.


    Thanks for the gardening advice Marie, all I know about the trees is that they are big and green...

    Well one of them is like a massive christmas tree, like the one you see in forests, the other I just dont know, it has small red leaves and a brown trunk. I will be standing on the edge of the church roof lopping away at it at about 25 ft, such fun! Maybe when you get back from holiday I will post some pictures of them so you can look at them, only if you have enough time though!


    Have a lovely break Karen, susan and anyone else.
