Today started off quite interestingly in that it was my second driving lesson just before eight this morning. First time let loose on the roads. And completely unbeknownst to me my instructor was intent on me actually driving myself to work - I didn't twig until I was actually told to take a right and go on the A66!!! Flamin' Nora. The A66 at peak morning rush hour, complete with 30 mph roadblocks for the ever present roadworks and bumper huggers, including huge lorries.
But I did it, I drove to work!!! :oD First time on a dual carriage, first time changing gears while pootling, first time navigating roundabouts and changing lanes and all that.
God knows what he has planned for next week! :oO I think I still need a venture out this weekend to practise my clutch manoeuvres as I am a bit like builder bob with my lead foot there. lol
And how cool is the UKS cyber crop forum??? I is amazing, and I just knew I'd be in Slytherin... Tree knows I rather like Snape for all his faults... hehe And yes my dark arts can come out to play. And how fitting that my Notions and Potions class fits in so well with the Slytherin bunch. :oD
But now I am just unzipping a load of downloads from The Sims Resource - I've been very lax in getting custom content that isn't just objects so I resubbed again and now have tons of amazing stuff to integrate in my game. So since it's soooo cold tonight, I feel like doing nowt else apart from getting this all unpacked and checking it out in-game. hehe
Fair enough my Crate paper and Hambly print order has arrived, and a new DVD to watch from Amazon rental... but nope, I'm off for a shower then checking the Sims booty out!
Well done on the driving, keep going and you'll get there. I'm in Gryffndor or something, i'm not really clued up on all things HP but it looks cool to me, I saw you were teaching a class with your fave Rhonna stamps, I'll look forward to taking that one :)

Well done on the driving Nat. UKS cyber crop does look fabbo. We've been asked to sponsor it along with all other UKS sponsors. Not sure if I will do the crop personally, as I'm a cyber crop virgin and not too sure what to do or what's involved (might just lurk). Any advice v. welcome.
