Well, it’s been another age since my last update - wedding planning is in full swing now; have a few things booked already with the dress search well underway Why isn’t normal shopping as much fun as trying on wedding dresses, that’s what I want to know!

Not going quite so well are the driving lessons, as perhaps evidenced by the fact that I’m still having them :/ I keep having what is known in the business as ‘brain farts’ whilst on the road - think it is mostly this affliction that is standing between me and being able to pass my test. I did ask my instructor if I could just book a test and see what happened - I could have a good day! - but oddly he didn’t seem too keen on this plan! Apparently I need to achieve things like confidence and consistency first. So the lessons continue along their merry and expensive path.

My new job is going pretty well - still have periods of wanting to be somewhere else doing something else but that’s working life for you. Have made quite a few friends there and it’s a nice working environment which counts for a lot in my book And using QuarkXpress is fun as job related tasks go And we get breakfast briefings every now and again where we get danish pastries and tea in exchange for listening to talks And we have away day meetings at nice hotels with free lunches sometimes So not a bad place to work when all’s said and done!
