Good Morning Early Birds

[emmie]

morning, Tuesday and the days are going fast. I can't sleep hence being somewhat earlier than normal. I do hope that you are all as well as can be, and have a lovely day whatever you might have planned. I got my Winter fuel payment today which is good, have you had yours yet.
It will certainly help that's for sure.

[emmie]

especially as they whacked on a considerable sum, for me that is, to my energy costs recently.
I am going to tx a mate later to see if he wants to meet up for lunch. We have been meeting up almost once a week for yonks, though he like me doesn't like the cold, so i will have to coax him out.

[emmie]

no 1ozzy as yet, i wondered how you got on with the driving licence and getting new sun glasses... let us know if you are about this morning....

[theshedman]

Morning all, very quiet on here today.

[emmie]

morning Tsm

[emmie]

it is quiet i know, no 1ozzy who is usually on here early,

[1ozzy]

Hi Em.
Hope your friend is good for a lunch today.

I'm allowed to drive for another 5 years, as long as I don't misbehave;-).

After destroying my nice but rather expensive sunnies yesterday I've replaced them with cheap tat.
Oh well, that's life sometimes.

[emmie]

how are you this morning...

[1ozzy]

G'day Sheddy, all good up there?

[emmie]

morning 1ozzy, nearly missed you there.

[emmie]

so you passed your test, well done, tat is sometimes better than expensive especially when churning them up on the lawn.

[1ozzy]

Tut tut girl
That would never do ;-)

[theshedman]

Yes fine here thanks. Is that your HGV you have to renew in 5 years. Rules may be different down under.

[emmie]

so you got another 5 years and then have to go through this again, blimey

Good morning all.

[emmie]

morning Danny

Any car drivers licence can be renewed for up to 10 years down here Sheddy, unless you're ancient.
Hgv requires a medical assessment as part of the renewal system every 5 years.
Only just passed the eyesight part without having to wear specs.
Phew, happy camper here.

[emmie]

good for you 1ozzy...

[1ozzy]

If I decide not to keep hgv Em it becomes easier to keep a drivers and riders licence.

Keeps the roads a safer place for all.

[emmie]

you passed the test, so well done.

[theshedman]

If you are over 65 here a HGV licence has to be renewed every 12 months. I did have one until my doctor said he wouldn't pass me on medical grounds. I hadn't used it for a while anyway so didn't feel it too much.
