lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 ... passed my test (first time ) and got a car. As such I've been bombing around all over the show and I haven't been on here much lately. But, following an enquiry, I thought I'd post and catch up with you lot This is one of the new places I've found for a stroll with my brood. And Kittlerox ... this is about as much hill as I can handle Setting off Straight up! And up some more ... All the huffing and puffing (on my part that is ) is worth it when you finally hit the level Even the big bitch needed a breather But not so much she didn't have time to give the terrorist a smack Posers And homeward bound My apologies in advance, I'm not much good at landscapes. But I had to have a go - it's beautiful up there! Thanks for looking 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted August 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) When I tell them we're off out with the dogs they all moan - then we get there and they run wild, messing with the dogs and generally annoying each other, and I say 'right, home time' and they moan that they don't want to go home! These were my favourite non-scenic shots Walking kids and dogs often leaves me with a high clothing bill and an awful lot of washing!

lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Welcome back Mrs some really nice shots Thank you for asking, by the way I'm well rusty with the ol' camera but I've got the bug again Having a car makes a difference - I've lived here for 8 years and only now am I really getting a chance to see the place properly!

skycat 6,174 Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Great to see you back again with the camera: and well done for passing that test: I've heard that it is a sight harder to pass these days compared to when I were a lass 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Thank you Penny Passing is well hard work now, most people my age who've done it said they answered a few questions and passed and it was easy. I did the written test in June, then I knuckled down and did two 1.5 hour lessons a week ... you have to know all sorts of obscure road rules, and do an independent drive for a section of the testing - which means they tell you what road signs to follow and you've to find your own way. Which is all well and good but difficult when you're a bag of nerves! When the guy told me I passed and with only one minor, I cried I put off doing it for such a long time, now I've done it I wonder why I didn't do it sooner. Putting all the kids and dogs in the car and setting off whenever I want to is possibly the best feeling ever 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
