So, here I am again on a night, and I thought I would relate a little story of my driving exploits from the other day. I have recently passed my driving test, so I am still learning to drive around Exeter (where I live, in the UK) by myself, and not having someone there to say "LEFT NOW!!". I'm really crap with directions, and don't have a sense of direction either, so suddenly being able to drive by myself is both exhilerating and scary! I'm really having to rely on the roadsigns now, and ho...

I'm creating this at 4.20am (UK), and I really wish I was in bed, but unfortunately I have to work. Being an assistant manager isn's all it's cracked up to be! We've been decorating the resedential home (where I work) today with tacky christmas decorations, so it's been a fun night so far, and then I ended up here, and what follows ...
