Ugggghhhhh , so fed up with never having a full nights sleep. Am going to collect my mother soon to bring her out here for a few hours. It's only about a 45 min round trip but I'm so tired I'll have to drive with the window down a bit. It's really sunny too, so I'll be blinded. My mother will probably yammer non stop, then apologise for yammering at me while I'm driving, then continue on anyway. If I'm coming up to a roundabout , and obviously keeping an eye on the road , and I don't reply to something she has said , she'll be all wounded and overly apologetic. I'd kill to lie on the sofa

The Russian had put me on a shopping ban since the week I blew all my wages on shoes and a candle. I'm banned from grafton street, but not from St stephens green. Got these shoes anyway.
"They're stripper shoes. Bring them back. You don't need them. They're nasty. If I were your louboutins, I would be really offended you would chose them".
What to do she's right. But I like them. I bought jeggings to wear after work with them. Just call me tila tequila

Co-workers who think it's okay to show your facebook page to other co-workers (who you are not friends with on facebook) and the boss (who you are obviously not friends with on facebook or in real life).
This. I don't know why other people are able to tell me about my annual leave requests, whether or not I am on flexi etc -

Fighting with that f.ucking clutch all weekend too. Why is it so hard? There is a tiny margin between release of clutch and pushing accelerator that is so damned hard to get right. Added to that, I decided it would be a good idea to find a quiet carpark to do a few practice starts. So, off I went with Dad to learn shít I should have learned when I was 17 and what did I find there? Only loads of teenagers getting driving lessons from Daddy, there were about five cars all going around in small circles. Ah bless. It was the driving equivalent of a creche. Some of the more daring ones would give a little celebratory toot when a fellow learner would complete a lap at 1km per hour. And me there...f.ucking 31 and my aul fell too old for the adrenalin and probably thinking he should have brought a nappy.... 0

Wax-on wax-off, ONW-san! :pac::pac::pac:
In time, you'll be able to feel the biting-point - where the drive is just starting to engage. Don't be afraid to make liberal use of the handbrake when taking off as well, at least until you get the hang of it.
Dad said I either get excited when the car starts to move and floor it, or I panic and take my foot off everything. The cheek, I've "driven" an automatic for three years. I'm beyond getting excited or panicked when the f.ucking thing moves.

It's all about feel and timing, practise makes perfect. If it makes you feel any better I passed the car test in 2004 at the ripe old age of 32, after many years not bothering my hole because that time no-one cared if you had a provisional. :pac:
It's not a Mercedes is it, with that bollicky foot-operated "hand" brake? I hate those things, forcing me to do the Templemore Two-Step (a.k.a. the Hendon Shuffle) in a bloody car! :pac:0 -

Haha no. I learned in a mercedes though so now every car feels like a midget car. I forgot about the handbrake. Stiff as a poker. Need some serious hand work to get that thing down. Er..... yes.
