Mark, thanks for that - I can't believe I forgot about that Carver poem, and I'd only just reread it a week ago!
Love the Larkin quote. For yewrs people have been saying to me: "You know what you need, you need a little CAR." For years I've been replying, "the LAST think I need is some little CAR!"
Anyway now the kids are big enough to go on the bus by themselves, I feel I got through the hard part.
And without a ticket!
