Argh, I feel your pain, Herbs. That kind of thing is sooooo blasted annoying.
My PP tutor turned out to be v nice and efficiently helpful. The relationship may be complicated by some extra pressures, which I will not go into here , but overall I am hopeful it will be a positive one.
Came home ready to relax for the first time since Christmas, only to be hit with a load of unreasonable and hysterical demands from dd. Yes, she's poorly, but actually she can almost touch the university med centre if she leans far enough out of her window. She is also being a massive twatsicle about her finances. And struggles wirh the reality that only she can action certain things now that she is legally an adult.
Stayed at dm's last night, as it's only 1 hr 15 mins from Bath, whereas I'd need a further 40 mins to get home. Was trying to get out the door early this morning to get to an appointment at the village school, when dm forced me to listen to a "very important message" from her pet wine merchant trying to flog her wine in his "January sale". I've not worked in the wine trade since 1990 (prefer freelance home study in wine these days
) but dm still considers me an expert.
