Thanks Grannie - will see I suprised my self first time round and did a lot better than expected by me - just two minors you can have up to 15 and still pass - but the roundabout on the A4 was a problem and was a fail. I froze at the roundabout last week as I redid the test route - but am doing it again tomorrow will decide then how I feel for sure.

See I would love a dress with matching coat - you gals are all the pinnicle of fashion - shame the shops are not!

Re Driving I failed first time just before Christmas I was gutted - was my new years resolution in 2006 to be driving in 2007. Was a minor fail but since then my confidence has gone and driving has got worse! Am thinking od postponing next weeks test.

I got my wedding dress from Monsoon. I still like it 11 years on and am pleased with my choice.

Cost me under £100. I had a Las Vegas wedding so a big traditional dress wasn't practical (and not really me anyhow).

Hope you find the one for you soon hon xx

Yup looked at Monsoon too theres a big outlet place at Clarkes Village but takes me over an hour on the bus and I work full time..... But I am all set to fail my driving test again next week - If I suprise myself I can drive to Clarkes after work one night as has late nights and is only about 40 mins in a car.
