    We drove round that bit - it was too scarey as we'd never driven anywhere like that before :o and I don't think you could really call the AA to get towed out of a ditch up in the countryside off-road :D

    beanie - absolutely no probs. It will be great whenever I get it.

    PAP - you must see a different view to me, I never see anyone's avatars?

    Katsu if you want to see all the bonny pictures in our avvies go to

    User CP then Edit Options

    Scroll down to Thread Display options and you can put ticks in what you want to see, one them is show avatars;)
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
  • Katsu - sounds like you had a lovely day. I'm sure the AA/RAC wouldn't have batted an eyelid?

    Elfen - glad it's not just me that encounters these problems.

    I can't get over the fact that it's May and I've had to get out my snuggly jim jams and put the winter duvet back on the bed.

    LMC - we went with Martin's Autoaid and it doesn't cover the truck sadly, so I need to get a replacement breakdown cover for it at some point. I'm not sure if the AA truck could manage to come up there to get you, as they are quite big and road suited.

    Was ace day and I even drove a bit - then I nearly drove through a fence :eek: Was fun tho :o

    Agree re PJs, I'm back in my flannel ones, in May :eek:

    BTW - thanks Louise re avatars, I wondered before what you were all on about :D Will go turn that on now.

    I can see your avatars now :) DH tells me he will make me one tomorrow.

    DH says I should get you to vote now on what I should have - good job Linda isn't on or I expect she would say something risque.

    Suze!!!!!
    How were you on the flight??

    It was absolutely fine SRM. I was prescribed lorazepam by the Dr which did not knock me out, but made everything a lot more 'rational', so each bump and jolt did not send me into a blind panic and floods of tears. I slept most of the way there and back (13 hour flight) but was very proud of myself.

    Was a little bit nervous on the way home because the woman I was sitting next to would not switch off her mobile and kept looking down the plane then talking to a man two rows behind us and disappeared to the toilets with bits of paper in her hand. This was all happening in Chinese, so I had no idea what that was all about, but I even managed to keep calm with all that happening.

    Just as well considering I'm doing it all again in 9 weeks' time :T

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    Just go back from the NHS walk in centre - the anti biotics were making my hearing go funny, hot then cold and feel a tad faint, these are symptions of an ear infection but didn't have them to start with. So I've been given a new prescription for different anti biotics.

    What kind were the old antibiotics?

    Suzy - see if he'll give you diazepam next time, it irons out the bumps a bit more and makes it more manageable...And you'll sleep

    And I am loving the new look MSE so far
