Cycling Question.

[Sharla]

Congrats on the license! Got to love the sense of freedom you get from just a small card with your name and photo on it.

But a side note depends who is in control of the car, I hate having to pay excess just because i am a male, never had an accident yet, It's the bloody wankers driving round in their V8 commodores which piss me off tailgating me because my hilux doesn't have the acceleration of their fuel wasters. Geez sorry for the rant, I hope your enjoying uni, you on a midsemester study break now sharla?

Thanks Salty

Yeah the generalization is a bit unfair for safer male drivers isn't it! I do actually have a female friend who has a brand new hotted up Subaru WRX and she drives like a man - but to be fair on her she's only had small accidents when crawling in car parks etc.

phD students don't get mid-semester breaks - or any breaks really. We are meant to have 4 weeks off per year but I've found I've used that for stuff like chiro appointments because I have a weak back and it can't really take all of the bending over (to study plants only) involved in my field work.


Don't worry about it Donny. I have those moods myself sometimes too so i wouldn't take it personally. It's a big deal to me to get my licence because I had to pay for almost all of my driving time so it's been financially difficult at times. I can totally understand how for most people who learnt when living at home with parents who would teach them it's not a big deal at all. I know I've just got something I should have achieved a long time ago but just wanted to boast because it's become a big deal for me. I'm actually patting myself on the back enough for everyone really!
