Fingers crossed for Tim...

...who is sitting his last electrical exam today. Having looked at some of his past papers, I think we can quite safely say that I'm not going to be an electrician any day soon. "Difficult" doesn't even begin to cover it. I don't even know the names for half of the equations and calculations that he has to do. My husband is a brainbox.

Tim is still *kind of* enjoying his new phone (the SPV M2000, or "MPV" as I accidentally keep calling it). The only drawback we have found so far is that it has an average battery life on par with the longevity of a mayfly. And when he changed batteries, it decided to lose all his saved info. How crap is that? We're undecided as to whether he's going to take it back and try a Treo instead. We'll see.

Driving was... interesting today. I seem to be channelling crap right now. Rain made my 3 point turns and reversing round a corner moves pretty difficult - what no mirrors! I'm having my doubts about that "end of August" test date that Steve mentioned. However, I can't give up, as Cuthbert, (the little red Fiesta who could) is sitting in the drive, and just had a full service with new tyres, new wingmirrors, new oil/air filters etc. etc. *Sigh* I just wish I was finding it easier.

Cute thing of the week - Jared has a violin recital at the end of term. How does he term this to me?

"Hey, Mum! I got a gig!"

My son. My son...

Into the studio for *hopefully* the last time on this project, tonight. Backing vocals (could be interesting!) and belltree. Looking forwards to hearing the finished project *sooooo* much!
