    Well, i fell asleep during casualty, but have just caught up on x-factor! Glad Alex won but i do wish she hadn't just blubbed all the way through!

    BB - just read back and i completely 'get' the driving bit as I felt like that a few years ago.....I kind of 'had' to get over the problem by just doing it.

    I think maybe you should try to get out a bit more but without the stress of having to do it. At the minute there are two conflicts going on - OH taxi duties at 3am in the morning (which I would never do as I think it is totally unecessary to get someone out of bed to give a lift home at that time - he is a grown man!) and the driving stress.

  • Good morning
  • Sammy, That is a very good point.

    I am finding more and more that I am really disliking driving at night-not a phobia by any stretch of the imagination but I truly see how it could end up that way if I didn't force myself to get out and drive at night-but I now have to stick to main roads etc and country lanes+headlights freak me out.


    You missed a wonderful meal out last night hun (but I completely get why you didn't come! lol) Scott and I have gorgeous tender steaks with port and stilton sauce-it was lush!

  • Morning Bookie! (can't call you BS-that stands for something else in my book!) and Bookseller is a bit long-you ok with Bookie?

  • Absolutely fine with that although Bookie sounds a tad dull and boring! Chris would work too if we are alowed real names.
  • Well, I sometimes use my 'real name' and so do quite a few people, it's up to you! Chris is one of those names that still leaves things a bit mysterious as we don't know if you're a male/female etc. ;)
