    Managed to get quite a bit done in the garden this morning.

    Been to pilates, done the school run, just having a cuppa and then I'll do the living room.

    Also bottled half of the first batch of elderflower cordial. DS1 says it is too lemony, I like it like that but the next batch I may halve or omit the lemons.

    If people are not in full control of thier cars, they shouldn't be driving, people who cannot reverse are even worse. Good on your uncle for sticking his ground so to speak.

    anyone up for a HHC 4.15-4.45?

    very busy on self employed front so done nothing much off the list yet this week :o


    Rosep - I liked the reversing story too. I drive a great big black long wheel base landrover (because it seats 6, two dogs, three canoes and a windsurfer quite happily with space for a picnic :p) and find that poeple are suprised when I give way to them. There does seem to be a general assumption out there that big car equals no manners :confused:.

    I have done no flying as DD had an accident in her car. I went out to give her some moral support. She is fine but shocked and upset, car is crumpled. We had a long wait for the breakdown vehicle.

    Luckily I prepared dinner last night for tonight. Now for some very rapid flying. Anyone for a HHC from 5-5.30
