.... STOP PRESS ....
James passed his Driving Test this morning (at his first attempt) - parents very proud but dreadfully broke, bearing in mind the enormous cost of insuring 17 year old boys ... not to mention all the driving lessons, and running repairs to the old banger that James bought (the automatic choke is playing up) last month. James has kindly said he doesn't require Christmas presents this year (ahhhhhh, bless!), and meanwhile his sisters are hoping that they've acquired a chauffeur ... (fat chance)
Well done James!
Just think of it in terms of Mum and Dad's taxi...

Well done James. I'm currently learning and can vouch for the cost of the lessons, although I hope my insurance will be cheaper!
