    Ooo how are you finding it, Red? It can be quite stressful when you're starting out, and very tiring too!

    I <3 driving though! Very proud of myself for never needing to take lessons, my father had us driving around the fields as soon as we could reach the pedals!

    I used to drive in the US, Jenny. But an automatic - and on the other side of the road!!! Learning to shift gears and using the clutch is quite different!!!

    I don't mind being a passenger too much, but I CANNOT be a passenger in my own car! Someone took my car for a spin a few weeks ago while I was in the passenger seat and I freaked the fuck out :lol: Dunno why though - thinks its mostly cos of the driving position, I feel like I can't move about when I'm driving but in the passenger seat I feel like I'm gonna go headfirst through the roof... or something like that...

    Hurrah for Friday! Went for a drink or two last night, but I was in bed before half 1 cos I was in bad form. Much better today though, and I get a lie-in tomorrow :D

    Second driving lesson this afternoon :?

    i need driving lessons... passed my test (first time, of course :ugeek: ) back in 1984 and basically haven't driven since :shock: :oops: unless you count driving a tank and 4-wheel-drive go-kart things on a stag do 2 years ago as 'driving'...

    mind you, i enjoy my status as non-driver as it means we never have arguments about who's driving back from a party or night out! :lol: :roll:
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

    aye, 'appens there weren't much traffic back in them days... if you stalled the car when stuck behind a haywain you had to get out and use the hand crank to start t'motor again...

    but we were 'appy in those days, even though we were poor...

    I was gonna do a compilation of the Dublin Crews best quotes, but jaysis there's a lot of posts here and I didn't get too far cos I can't stop laughing!

    Here's a few anyway from '06 and '07 (strange how most of them are of Dunk perving on someone...):
    whence comes these potatoes that sit betwixt the veg and meat?... beshrew me if they arent Scottish potatoes as the juxtaposition of Scottish potatoes next to English beef would be too much for me too bear ;)

    Because we were poor!


    Winter gave us one last "see yous later" today. :think: More or less snow fell all over the place. But it's mostly gone already. :D


    ALSO: Typing this with small letters cause I still can't believe it. Ma fella got a phD thingie in Helsinki and should be moving out there in some months.


    I've promised to go out tonight but not sure if I can be bothered. Ah well, I'll grab a bottle of wine and see how it goes. :lol:

    The car is fine :roll: It's just having to remember everything. An automatic is sooooooooooooooooooooooo easy, you don't have to think. A manual, you do (until, I understand, it becomes automatic... you 'hear' it in the car, you 'feel' it in the car - yeah right!).
