Heather confiscates Dan's computer. He lies in but when he wakes up he is his usual cheery self. I give himself and Emma a list of tasks. I am really encouraged to see that Emma has taken a red pen and divided the work between the two of them.
It is a good day. I manage to get the Berlingo's battery changed and it is good to see it immediately spark into life. I also fill out the form to transfer my balances onto yet another new credit card. I have a few questions. I ring up an Indian call centre and realise the grief I will have if anything goes wrong. As luck would have it, as I leave Natwest I am accosted by another Indian, this time offering a Natwest credit card, but at a 2.5% interest rate ionstead of 3%. Result! I had just been about to post the form.
Back home, and to my amazement and immense joy, Dan and Emsy have set busily about their tasks. I get myself ready for Jolly J's test. Having seen T fly through yesterday, I am almost reluctant for Jon to pass. The two of them are lessons I always look forward to , and although it seems cheesy, I shall miss them!
J is unchanged to the end, constantly worrying and imagining a million things which could go wrong, but if he is nervous it doesn't show in his driving. F is his examiner (again there are only two on duty). They dissapear and I chat to another instructor, H from Amersham. A nice chap with a wry sense of humour. We wander up to the cafe and by the time we've drunk our tea, our charges are back with us. Another good result, J passes with just 4 minors. H's pupil passes too. Happy days.
When I get home Dan has taken Emsy to her trampolining lesson. They have both cycled up. The house looks like a new pin (well as close as it'll ever get) Have a feeling of a day well spent.
Cook sea bass for supper, nice as always, and then slumber and to bed.
