There was no other traffic. I'd slowed right down, but the decision to actually stop was last-moment.<br /><br />Oh dear, clarinet. I still play once a month. My main resolution every year is to meet up with friends more often - but actually, I really have done that this year. So it's something to build on rather than start doing!<br /><br />Hope you did get some sleep, Scarlet.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-65062166609283668422011-10-19T09:46:11.958+01:002011-10-19T09:46:11.958+01:00Pleased you've finally got some sleep... and t...Pleased you've finally got some sleep... and the hedgehog was saved.<br />I did think of you when I went to bed last night...

I learned to drive in a busy town in the southe-east. I suspect if I'd learned in the country, where a) there are no vehicles following and b) animals in the road (eg a cow) could be more dangerous to run into than not.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403853324345062446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-75908391266889267232011-10-19T07:10:06.735+01:002011-10-19T07:10:06.735+01:00Sorry.
