    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Well done on passing.
    Are they not offering you a courtesy car so that you are not inconvenienced?

  • Hi taxi I do get a courtsey car put I can only pick it up/drop it offf between 9am and 4pm 10 miles from where I work!

    Tilly I should be free on the 27th June! (providing I pass everything)

    I went out to dinner with some friends last night as one had come from the other end of the country. It was making me laugh as out of the 9 of us who all met at our previous jobs only 2 are left and everyone else has left in the last 18 months and they are still calling it 'normal' turnover.

  • Well I have my car back :j I'm glad I wasn't paying for it as it was over £1k! I think that this garage is extortionate and I would never take it there if I were paying but it keeps the insurance company happy.

    I'm full of cold at the moment which isn't helping in trying to get my uni work done when all I want to do is sleep! Oh well I must plod on.
