Time for an update methinks. My bloggage (!) has been erratic to say the least, but I'm sure I can be forgiven due to the amount of changes going on!
Frankie update:
She's found her voice well and truly... She likes to sing and snuffle especially for her Mum and Dad at around 2 in the morning. Now as much as I appreciate her entertaining me, some sleep woldn't go amiss! As for Carla, I actually think she's forgotten what a full night's sleep is. Her last one was circa 6 months ago! We have a small worry in that Frankie's right hand is clenched up a lot leading the doctor to recommend a visit to the physiotherapist. Of course I'M worried and Carla is taking it all in her stride as per normal.. No update pictures yet as I'm at work blogging this!
Knmowledge update:
I went for my self assesment exam at the Public Carriage Office yesterday. It was an eye opener... I was led to believe it would consist of 5 runs (which it did) and multiple choice questions (Which it didn't!) it actually consisted of 10 blank maps (See below) on which I had to find two points of interest and a road... Not an easy task! This is what the blank map looks like:
You then need to find the location of the two points and mark them on the map as well as a designated street.... No mean feat! I also managed to misinterpret the instructions form the examiner... So I "only" scored 20 % on the map test. Add this to the runs and I managed a pass of 60%. Not bad for a complete shocker of a start!
It does mean I need to reasses my thinking re The Knowledge though. I will be making some important descisions in the coming days.
No music today as my employers frown upon Youtube!
You may also see I have changed the layout of this blog. I'm currently looking at purchasing some webspace to fully customise my blog and to give me a decent domaib name (NickTB@) watch this space!

AS I said -well done you- you passed. SO where is the map? and which places did you have to put on it?
