allana | Time for another driving update....

I rock!!

Just had another driving lesson which was fabulous. We started off by driving along a tricky little road which starts as a single lane then turns into dual-lane traffic after a humpback bridge, segues into a hairpin bend, and after three further humpbacks (and more interesting bends) joins a B-road. Hugely fun from either direction and I didn't even flinch into oncoming traffic. Yay! Then we drove into the next town along and Sarah managed to find some roads which were completely new to me. Everything went incredibly well, even in heavy rain.

Next week we're going onto manoevers and then I'll just have to cover high speed roads and I'll be ready for my test! I'd better book a theory test and start revising properly for that....

My eyes are improving, well, the left eye is. The right eye is more or less the same, but the cataract is slightly increased in size. I'm going to go to the opticians and get a more powerful lens for that eye which should improve matters.

And in further good news, my Amazon order has turned up earlier than expected. I'll be curling up on the couch this afternoon with a stack of books and some music in the background!
