As I Xi It v2.3

This weekend, we drove up the A40 and I noticed that there were quite a lot of people parked up on the hard shoulder suffering from vehicular problems. Since I’ve been learning to drive (finally, some say), I’ve been reading my driving books and realised how none of them actually follow the book. If you’re on the hard shoulder, you and all your passengers should get behind the barrier and onto the bank while waiting for help, but there were families just loitering behind the car. You don’t get behind the barrier just for fun, you do it because its safer than standing on the roadside where cars are whizzing past you at 70 mph. The hazard lights should also be switched on.

It seems odd that to pass ones driving test, you don’t actually have to learn how to drive on the motorway. In fact, learner drivers aren’t allowed on motorways.

Here’s Woody on his wheel listening to the Beach Boys.

Some pics of Woody. He seems to have settled into domestic life pretty well. Even learnt how to use the wheel! He also seems to enjoy Belgian waffles, but isn’t too keen on the Aldi version of Ryvita (Knacke) since he peed and pooped on it.

Woody

Since this little rodent is a wood mouse, it only seemed appropriate to call him Woody.

Cici caught me present. How sweet.
