I thought that Shingles was the lurking old chicken pox virus, and that it was easier for it to escape and flare up if you were stressed??

I'm just back from accompanying the eldest in the car.... Getting their confidence up and driving unfamiliar roads! I'm quite enjoying having a personal chauffeur...they are improving, but still managed to stall the car at least once each journey (to be fair it's an old temperamental car so they are still getting used to it!)

I was going to teach my daughter to drive but the insurance was really expensive - in the end she had driving lessons which cover the insurance. However, shr lost confidence and gave up so still hasn't passed her test.

I've always found it easy.. you don't have to do much apart from ( barely ) combining the ingredients

Yes...probably the easiest bread to make as no kneading or proving required!

You've got a way to go yet, I'm 65 later this year.

Me too!

She has passed but finding that she still hasn't much confidence, and grandma's old car isn't the best but it means that we can't get rid of it (not worth anything anyway), without hurting her feelings. She is getting there, I just now need to force her to do some journeys on her own.... We eventually found some insurance that didn't cost an arm and a leg!

I like dresses ... I keep buying the things though I admit I don't wear them as often as I should!

I find dresses rarely suit me. Somehow they look like sacks on me or cling in all the wrong places. Its not that I'm particularly overweight. The only dresses that I found ever suited me were 60's mini shift dresses.

Well I think ones which are meant to emphasise a narrow waist I don't have definitely don't suit me but do suit my daughter! But somehow a dress makes me feel special (probably because I don't wear them enough), and if I find one I love... My favourite one is fab, I love wearing it... But I can't find another one that I love as much so it does get worn most of the time I want to wear a dress for an occasion! Friends probably think I've only got the one!

What's a dress?

I just baked rolls and they are lovely.... That could just be down to being butter meltingly warm....

She'll start it again when she's ready.

I was just having a nice nap when somebody from Softromike Temperamental Dept rang. Guess how I felt?
