I'm not dead

You'd be forgiven for thinking that I might be though, given the length of time I've been in the 6th level of hell on this blog... It's a combination of being too tired to think of anything to say and feeling too boring to have anything worth saying. Which is a bit sad.

I have been busy. Work has been incredibly tiring and stressful. The aftermath of having problems with a colleague is a not-so-happy working relationship but nothing I can do anything about except persevere and keep my head down.

Soundcheck (too tired to link to www.speak.org.uk) is next weekend. I'm organising the stewarding and it should be much easier than previous years (just one venue - all my Sundays come at once!) but I'm so unprepared!

I have my driving test on 7th March. I'm good enough to pass, but it all comes down to how I do on the day itself. It's not so much of a big deal -I'm not 17 and I've passed things before and I've failed things before, but it would be nice not to have lessons any more! I drove to Rotherham over the Woodhead Pass in the daylight (got stuck behind a slow van pulling another van, so not so much speediness) and in the dark (terrifying!) and did well and then did a hideous stall in the middle of a junction just before the bottom of my street.

And quite a few nights out drinking, which were fun...

That's all...

A blog talking about learning to drive and drinking - OK, interesting conversation. Remind me to stay south.

Clearly I don't do both in proximity to each other. That would be silly.

Thanks, now I feel much better.

BBC1 Wednesday 7:30pm there's a program about the horrors of the driving test.

Apparently they stick red hot pokers in your eyes, or something.

Just wanted to say I'm still here, reading. I don't blog much these days, but when I do, I always drop by for a quick look at what you're up to! Good luck with the driving test!

Hope you pass first time, some of us though took 5 times so don't feel to bad if you fail!

I'm not so fussed about passing first time - I have a fairly long history of learning to rive, just not taking tests. I just want to pass this time!
