We are now an all driver family as Matthew passed his driving test today. Obviously he and we (we think) are delighted. He successfully negotiated a short drive round the village soon after arriving home with the good news and then offered to drive Simon to the station this afternoon. He has now gone off to a meeting at church. Of course the capability to practice his new skill relies on the beneficent nature of his ever fragrant mother, ie me, to allow use of her car until such time as Matthew decides he want to buy (and insure) one of his own. If Simon is anything to go by, it won’t be a priority yet.
Simon has taken my tent back with him to Leeds as possible accommodation for his trip to Switzerland with uni friends in ten days time. It seems an exciting adventure. He does have one more exam, hopefully it will go well. I think he finds some of his economics tedious at times and I know he is looking forward to his year abroad from October not least for the absence of economics work and lectures.
Just off to admire my new oven now, daren’t use it, might get dirty!
I remember passing my driving test … 27th December 2007.
I also remember when my cooker was new … 28th August 2006.
Both my car and cooker are now well used and filthy
Sarah.
