Winter fire

Hooray - I have my car back. After three weeks in the garage and me having to drive around in the postman pat car, it felt very weird being back in my own car. It was like driving the 285 bus. (Not that I really know what it's like to drive a bus).

I started my diet today and I'm meant to have no chocie or wine (but I've already failed on the latter). I can start again tomorrow.

I still haven't managed to get through all my marking. It'll have to be an early morning start tomorrow.

My daughter's drama teacher has just called to say that she passed her lamda exam with distinction. She doesn't know yet - she's at guides. I'm sure she'll be very happy.
