Last week on Monday I sent off my provisional licence form. On the leaflet it said it would take up to 15 days to arrive, but it came this morning!! I am sooo pleeeeeeased, no more using my passport with ridiculously stupid photo as ID.

Who wants to come to the pub and celebrate?

Houston. He'll be there for a week for business. Unless something changes he'll be moving there soon for his job.

Ha! Uh, no. He is Egyptian. And has never fostered any desire to be a cowboy.

Lemon, at the moment I don't think he's too excited. He's lived there before and liked it pretty well but just other factors in his life make him not over the moon about it right now.

While I am sad he'll be moving again it is fun to have a place to crash if we make it over there anytime soon. We've been friends since we were 13. He's like my brother.

And he gets credit for doing the nicest thing EVER for me a few years ago. He flew me to London and put me up in a hotel so I could see Ewan McGregor in Guys and Dolls.

I'm sure London will be kind to him. And that's a pretty amazing thing for a pal to do!! Sounds like a billo guy!

He really is great. I think this is going to be a good move for him.

And it really was an wonderfully kind gesture. I had a really rough few years and had the best time decompressing* on that trip.

*decompressing = drinking a lot

Dubz, I don't think you even need to respond. I think it's a given that you're there.

Why you even ask? I've even dreamt of buying Sambuca!
