Am currently preparing to take my learners again. Shut up.

Anyway, some of the questions on the practice test are downright amusing. About a third are along the lines of "In the following somewhat dangerous situation should you (a) Speed up (b) drive more carefully or (c) honk your horn?" Hmm let me think...
I must admit I got some of the questions wrong having forgotten who gets right of way, but there's some answers so dumb that I think anyone who chooses them should be permanently banned from driving, and possibly from being a pedestrian (see the post title, for example)

I got put on a lower dosage of antacid and spent yesterday feeling Very Ill, but on the plus side have found somewhere that sells lemon gaviscon (I seem to have developed a reaction to peppermint, which is unfortuntate since it's in 90% of over the counter stomach medication) Also cheered myself up by eating a banana and half a carton of no fat custard. Mmm...alkaline. (Pity I'm also somewhat allergic to dairy. Stupid stomach)

Finally, a big thankyou to everyone who wished me a happy birthday, I'm too lazy to reply to everyone saying "Thanks", but thanks :)

I'm a little worried that I'll look at this tommorow and realise it's crap (I get this adoring parent unable-to-see-the-flaws affection for most things I create which takes a while to fade) but I have work tomorrow anyway and if I post it now I can feel it's done and get on with my evening.

So, without further ado, the first work in my obligation to this art meme(*), for Penny. Inspired by this Klimt painting as well as Runaround. (Also the fact that I got this lovely tree)

(*)This used to be locked, but isn't any more, and needs one more person. *hint*
