I feel that i should probably say something more than a rant about the traffic!

Though i am a bit distracted by the prep that i'm supposed to be doing for Wednesday, re: valuing a personal injury claim. As you all probably know, numbers aren't my best friends, thus getting this right takes quite a lot of concentration!

So, the last 4 days have felt like a very long weekend. (Apart from having to come in for Employment Law on friday for a few hours!). The days always do get a bit confused when Alan has annual leave and is here for more than 48 hours. On Thursday we pootled about in Chester for the morning, then went off to the pub for dinner. It had been a lovely day weather-wise, but as we sat eating our dinner, the rain decided to come down like a tonne of bricks. That made the drive home, through the windy courty lanes quite a lot more 'exciting' than it normally is. We both got soaked in the few feet from the pub to the car and then the car to the front door of the house! Didn't do alan much good though, what with him already being poorly.

Friday, i came here in the morning, then in the afternoon, me and Alan had a look around Cheshire Oaks, then went to the cinema to see Valiant. It was nice to take my mind off everything thats bothering me for a bit.

Saturday morning was lost in a mixture of an extended lie-in, and faffing about trying to decide what to do with the day, but in the afternoon we took a drive out to Delamere Forest, which is one of my favourite places. We had a nice peaceful stroll about the place, then bought some bird feed from the shop and put it on the log we had parked the car by. Sitting quitetly in the car for half an hour, we had lots of visitors! Loads and loads of blue-tits, several types of finch (though i'm not knowledgeable about birds enough to know which), a woodpecker, a robin, a large-ish unidentified birdy and 6 squirrels. It was lovely, until some fool decided to see how close he could wander up to them and scared them all off.

Sunday we just sat in the conservatory and read a book together, then went out for lunch before Alan had to make off for the train back to base.

He's off work today poor love, as he doesn't seem to be getting any better from the tonsilitis.

I have to just hope that i don't catch it from him, as i already have the sniffles, and with the exam period looming, i just can't afford to be poorly right now.

Exam results on thursday. I may have already mentioned this once. However the level of nerves i am experiencing over them, merits it being mentioned again! Still particulalry worried about the 3 skills results. Can't seem to just remain calm about it until i know what the results actually are. I wish i could be a bit more laid back, but i can't.

Anyhow, better pootle off to class.

weekend, it's-raining-it's-pouring, ex, lpc, exams
