Hi! Long time no see! (or should that be long time no post............whatever).

Haven't posted in a few days now. Had too much work (stupid latin essays and context questions.............. and biology coursework......oh and chemistry learning for a test........but i didn't do that anyway). Yep so here i am, making a post.

Well its been snowing on and off. But it hasn't been settling properly. Last night it snowed heavily and this morning there was some snow that settled but by the time i got home it had all melted. However on the way to school it did provide some entertainment. While walking up this reasonably steep hill called Jacksons lane there was a woman trying to cycle down the hill on the pavement on the other side of the road. The woman hadn't considered the fact that the pavements were icy and so as she speeded past all that could be heard was the sound of her screaming 'it won't stop, aaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhhhhh the bike won't stop!' I know its bad to laugh at other people's misfortunes.............but I burst out laughing anyway. She kind of brought it on herself. Who rides a bike on icy pavements when theres a road next to it thats just been salted and is therefore ice free. And isn't it illegal to ride on pavements (i may be wrong but still.......). And in case you're wondering, once the woman reached the bottom of the pavement, she managed to manoever the unstoppable bike safely onto the road and just carried on riding.

And i'm happy to say I didn't slip over once (although i nearly did on three occasions, the first occasion being after only making a few steps out of my house). I am determined to not fall over.
