    @Grinchy
    Sorry you had a bad night and as you say I hope it’s a blip, I hope you can doze off throughout the day.

    Good morning everyone

    @Lou67

    About learning to drive, you might be surprised given my attitude to driving and cars today but I used to think exactly the same as you, I was really nervous of learning to drive

    If the instructor is any good they will ease you into it gently. For example on your first lesson they will take you to a quiet industrial estate or somewhere similar where you can get to grips with the controls and stuff, you won't be expected to start driving round town or on the motorway :D 

    Also it goes without saying but you won't be alone because by law you can't go out alone as a learner so you will always have someone with you for support. Also if it's more comforting for you you can get someone like your daughter to teach you to drive. The law doesn't make it compulsory to have driving lessons, anyone can teach you, however with Motability you might want to look into the insurance implications of that because I don't know how that works with being a learner

    Good luck :blush:

    Thanks @Beaver79 and same to you. Is your dog OK with having the booster?

    Our dog is a pain in general but he is absolutely fine with injections for some reason!

    Good morning I hope your feeling better today.
    Oh I could never get my daughter to teach me, I think I would abandon the car 😂
    I will think about it but I’m honestly not to sure but thanks for all the advice.
    I hope you have a lovely day. 
    I’m getting a lift to hospital from hospital transport and the man turned up at 9.20 instead off 10.15 so I had to rush. He sat in the car till I got myself sorted. 
    When I went into the car he apologised said he phoned the transport team and it was their mistake 🙄

    Oh what a pain @Lou67, but I guess better to be really early than really late?

    And morning to everyone, sorry I've been super busy today, but wanted to stop in and wish y'all a lovely day.

    Hi I’m on my way home, they weren’t happy with my wound the charge nurse that's been dealing with me except last week he was off. 
    He said it looked better 2 weeks ago. So he’s tried something new he used something to burn it and dressed it again. 
    So I’m back next week again 😢

    @Ada
    Hi are you feeling any better.

    @Marydoll5
    Aww I’m sorry your not feeling like going out, I hope you feel better soon. 

    @Sandy_123
