i know i really need a kick up the backside to get me going lol. i took lessons when i first bought the car and after a while my instructor dropped me, told me i was doing fine just needed someone to sit in the car with me. so i asked my dad, biggest mistake ever. every time i came home from driving with him i was in tears. he made me so nervous, he sat holding onto the dash and kept taking the wheel from me. long story short he is now not allowed near my car

Never a good sign. I was lucky as my dad & uncle used to teach my sister & I to drive. My actual instructor thought my dad was mad to go in a car with having control over the vehicle

I used to go out with my aunt as well nikki and she said i was fine. at night i would drive around the neighbourhood by myself. the last time i went out my dad told me to drive straight ahead at a junction as i was doing this he changed his mind and said go left and caught the wheel and pulled it to a sharp left i literally nearly had a heart attack and accelerated instead of braking and that was the end for me

My most scariest experience was when I was doing my driver training for the ambulance service, we had the scariest instructor who if you argued back at he would fail you. We were at an advantage as we knew this already & kept our mouths shut for the 3 weeks

Evening all!!
Hows everyone? Any plans for the night? Think we're going to relax and watch the apprentice. I can see Edna being trouble!

I made her take her mobile with her and phone me once she was on her way, just in case she had any problems .

Oh my, how did you cope??? Were you checking your phone every 15 seconds...?!!!

I was very good - I made her call me once she was on her way to school, so I knew she'd locked up okay and was going to make it to school on time. I'm sure she was probably thinking "god mum whats the big deal" lol .

Off to the park in a bit Will try and take photos of all the new menus. Camera batteries are charged and it's in my bag.

After that when OH come and picks me up tonight we are going to Ikea Has to be done but it's often chaos in there, worse than in Disney
