    just had two calms ready for my lesson - i'm hopeless - i'll get sick with nerves just for lessons and this is after 2 years of them! have to pass this time as i'm getting a bit fed up of the whole thing to be honest.

    no spend day today as the driving lesson is 'owed' from the ones cancelled before. still haven't had any money back from the driving agency whatsit from my test that they cancelled in december grrrr.

    Morning all - have got gymnastics, milk and bread to pay for today and thats all folks. slurging on this trip has definitely guilted me into being frugal elsewhere!

    Well, went to hospital and i've got to have the mole taken off for diagnosis. app is feb 7th which is a total nightmare for our wonderful weekend away as I'll either have to have stitches out day before we go or when we get back :mad: which means no pretty bras etc (the moles in an 'akward' position!). just hope its all alright, nothing sinister.

    another lesson today - hope i fare abit better today.

    I used to have trouble getting from 3rd back down to 2nd, it always used to slip into 4th. I don't have too much trouble now. You'll get to grips with it ;)
