    Right VENT time!

    I have a sister who I have mentioned before. She's come today so I can look after her little girl so she can go to the big butchers/grocers we have near me (cheap nice cuts of meat and good prices for veg/fruit) So off we go, she shops and suss out the bus stops so I can get the bus and go myself.

    Well, I'm loathing buses at them inute, I think they're so expensive especially for local drop offs so I'm walking everywhere. I asked her to clock the milage from there to my house. She told me 6 miles. I still was prepared to walk it with the push chair as I want to lose weight and feel liberated that I don't have to rely on anyone or a car (even though I soooooooo want a run around)

    So, I've just done a post code search on Aa route planner, it's actually 3.1 miles. I could walk that in a hour if I walk fast. Why add 3 miles on to it. Why would she lie about some thing like that?! All I can think of is that she can see i'm gradually losing weight and the green eyed monster diesn't like it.

    I'm so blurdy annoyed by it. I so annoyed with everyone's comments about me not having a car. I just want to shout, I'm not moaning about it why should you!

    Ok, *jiggles her being* shrugging it off, back to me. Hello all, have a good afternoon x

    on the upside, there's the wake,or cucumber sarnies...and scoff at weddings...for sure, you have to put up with the boring bits, but...every cloud, etc???

    [folk I know wonder why I've had so many marriages....?...I reply, ''every time I need a new toaster..ect''.... I 've gone off marriage now that Tesco's flog toasters at a fiver a go]

    Why add 3 miles on to it
    ..was she thinking, ''there and back?''

    or 'kilometers' instead of miles?

    maybe she's gone the long way round? Maybe she doesn't do the AA?

    [Maybe she thinks the AA is something else entirely?]

    Have you tried Googlemaps? They're so much easier to use, and more reliable than the Oioi...


    pushbike and trailer?

    Motorbike and sidecar?

    all cheaper than a bus......apparently....
