Getting Calmer

Bear's pal arrived early and after they left I left the house and went to Aldi.  It took a little effort but I'm getting better.  I forgot to get milk, though, which I'll have to somehow pick up tomorrow as bear's pal that is coming tomorrow drinks tea.  Nobody in this house bothers with milk. 

Then I had another epic driving lesson.  The fail rate for the driving test in the UK is @ 50%, and I have a lot to learn before I'm fit to enter.  My awesome, awesome driving instructor is getting me up to speed and fitting in loads of lessons.  I was pleased at negotiating some really tight turns with cars parked at the junctions and moving cars coming in all directions, but I did turn right instead of left at one point, and the three point turn didn't go smoothly.  Then before I knew it, I was turning onto a dual carriageway, with roundabouts and traffic lights and all sorts!  I stalled at one roundabout (fortunately not the one where motorway traffic joined) and I spent far too much energy trying not to swear.  I had always imagined this stretch of road as being somewhere I would drive when I was almost ready to take the test.  Apparently it's an easy stretch.  I'm glad, as it's a route I plan to take often as it goes near the big shopping centre and a Farm Shop.  Today I was a wreck afterwards, but I'm going to have to get over that and learn.  I have another lesson tomorrow. 

I have the latest instalment of the White Hart up here.  I am having so much fun writing this it ought to be illegal! 

Here is another random pic.  There ought to be a story behind it.
