DH is 44 and doesn't drive - well, he's preparing to take his test - but that's after a few yeyars of encouragement from me. He used to ride his motorcycle, but then had a particularly nasty accident with a bad injury and while he wanted to drive a car at that point, he was too edgy about driving for awhile. Glad he's finally getting to it though. He's a good driver, just needs to get the testing out of the way.MSE mum of DS(7), and DS(4) (and 2 adult DCs as well!)DFW Long haul supporters No 210:snow_grin Christmas 2013 is coming soon!!! :xmastree:0

Post-delivery Martini it is. Or do I carefully measure out a unit at a time of gloriously wonderful wine? We have two bottles of incredible wine plus some I bought from a tiny little vineyard in Tuscany while we were on our honeymoon that I'm not able to drink yet.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I bet the nurses will be horrified by us. They're used to people coming in and trying to hold off the drugs as long as possible. I asked about a practice run.Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
