I did a great course on creative writing just over a year ago. It was focussed on writing your family history. The youngest person was me - the eldest was an 84 y.o man. He wrote amazingly well and did it all on his computer as he had done a course a few months earlier. I do scrapbooking at our local neighbourhood centre. It is focussed on preserving old family photos. That has led me to give a demonstration together with our tutor to a group of people during Senior Citizen's month. I had a great time and I was able see some wonderful photos and listen to many stories about the "old days". |

Sorry Sue, I posted then got side tracked. I was just trying to sign up for a two day workshop on using Photoshop. I have been looking for one of these for ages,as I have a copy of this on my computer and can only do the basics on it. I would love to be able to restore some of the old photos properly. They are not sure if the course if going ahead,so I will have to keep my fingers crossed. |

It's quite an expensive licence but he doesn't have to do it in one go so I think he's thinking about it. He loved it as he actually flew the plane for awhile. |

Hi Allan:-) I really don't like the idea of flying in a small plane. The plane that goes on joy flights holds 4 people including the pilot. The plane OH had his flight on was for 2 people and as he and the pilot have long legs they looked very cramped to me. OH said the hardest part was getting in and out of the plane - it was actually quite comfortable once inside. If he gets his basic licence he will then be able to fly with 3 passengers on very short trips. I read the booklet about learning to fly and it's an amazing amount of work just for the basic licence. However if OH wants to do it I would encourage it all the way. |

Sue the amazing thing about the small plane was that you could see what the pilot was doing. |
