Every time I press Return I get a window about sound and playback devices
Why? Alternatively (I would put this all on a new line but the return button problem prohibits me from doing that) if you could be famous for one day what would you do and what would you be famous for? (Excuse the appalling syntax but loss of return is putting me off).

Waterloo Bridge is the worst fucking bridge in the whole of London.
Pretty views, busy, being carved up by roadworks, too long, the only one I NEED to use on a regular basis, full of tourists. Tower Bridge is pretty bad for people stopping in the middle of the pavement for photos, but I don't use it regularly.

As for speaking Forrin, my French consisted of "Je suis desolee, je ne suis pas forte en francais." and "Je bande pour toi" (thanks for sending me that site. If only I could have learnt more...)

I was terrified the first time my dad decided it was time I learnt to ride without them
My sister, on the other hand, hadn't even got the hang of brakes; she'd been quite happy for her stabilised bike to just roll to a halt. So when my dad took the stabilisers off hers, instead of learning to use the brakes, she'd just jump off the bike.

My mum and dad were running up and down the street for hours holding the seat of my bike to no avail.
My uncle, on witnessing this poncery, sat me on a very high Budgie and just pushed me into the distance, thus meaning I HAD to learn to ride without stabilisers.
