Thank you.

I should be fine, I've been using Word for 9 years and Excel for about 6.
I'm usually the one helping people when they're stuck!
I might go see if I can find anything on the net about tests, or an example.

Still green and a lump Bundy??!! Wierd!
You sure it's nothing slightly serious?

Been out on my bike loads actually. Have to, it's the only way to get about in Camb, as you know. I'm just a bit more wary now. And take to the pavement every time I see a BMW!
well at least you seem to be progressing down the road of recovery!!

yeah i miss my bike and being able to cycle everywhere, i mean i lived in the 'burbs in cambridge (towards the hospital) yet it was still only a 25mins ride to the centre of town! not a chance of cycling here in london... then again i'm off to montreal soon... gonna get a bike in the first week i hope!

happy cycling!

Good luck with the job Simone.

I would love to get a bike but where I live is very hilly and I don't think I would survive the trip up the road to my house :scared:

When I cycled regulary I was very fit and could cycle from pub to pub and never put on weight

I always bruise badly, so they always take ages to fade. The green stage seems to take the longest, but it's nearly there. My knee is at least fit to be seen in public again, which is a start. My rib doesn't hurt much anymore and I can move my arms again, so I think it's fine. I'm not worried!

ksct - yeah, I live pretty much in the centre of town. I could walk in - takes 10 minutes - but cycling is sooo much quicker (assuming you make it one piece). I'd cycle to work but I work 5 miles out along a dodgy stretch of road, so I don't. It's the only time I drive, the rest of the time (grocery shopping, going out, visiting friends and rellies), I cycle. I'm so ecologically conscientious

Thanks.

Hmm, can imagine!
It's bit hilly here, which is annoying.
And I sweat easily, so I know I'm going to die in summer!!!
The other day it was 22 and I only had a thin vest on, but ooohhh, how warm!!

Get one of those bikes with a little motor (no, not a moped, those other things) so that you can motor up hills then free-wheel down them and maybe pedal on the flat bits.

Anyway, horses sweat, men perspire and women merely glow

You should have seen me when I was cooking on the sheep station (40 degree heat outside, me standing over an open fire inside....). Good god did I sweat. Standing there in a singlet and grubby dungarees (camp oven cooking is a messy busy), dripping with sweat and trying not to let it drip into the cabbage. Very attractive. I used to drink 9 litres of water each shift.

Oh oops! I thought I'd scare them with the sweating part!!

Ok, I was wearing: socks, sneakers, jeans, undies, bra, t-shirt, vest, glasses.
Is that better

At least I would have a shower and get changed before dishing any food up.

lol

Mu dad is/was a builder, working outside in the 40 degree heat! He also said, he drank about 5 liters, and didn't have to go to the toilet once!

Yes, normal women might glow, I don't

And I did cook in just my bikini a few times, but not for the guests, just for the workers. Bit dangerous, mind. And I doubt I'd pass my food hygene certificate like that!
