I really really really dont understand myself!! lol

Why do I worry about going on a train when I dont feel funny at all if I'm abseiling or climbing up a climbing wall?

[Meg]

Matt,

Because you're in total control with the ones you choose to do. If you could drive the train you'd be fine.

Meg

[Matt]

Yeah thats what I thought... mmm I wonder how much you can buy a train for?

Whats the best way to ease meself into someone elses control then? I've started by letting other people drive places etc and am 99.9% comfortable with that. Should I just go for it and do stuff and see how I cope?

Matt,

My hubby is a train driver. Shall I ask him if you can borrow one?????

[Meg]

Take one fear and go at it gently , with small steps until it's comfortable. Then take the next one.

The secret is time and repetition without incident .

If you have trouble thinking of small steps for any of them - post and we'll help - maybe creatively

Good luck

Ello again kate

Yeah find out if I can borrow one for a week or so hehe

[Matt]

Well if anyones got any ideas then feel free to post!!

I know about the getting on the train and doing one stop then two etc etc and doing it every week but it gets a bit expensive just for a test when the nearest station is 20 miles away and then its 5 quid return to the next stop! We are talking a serious amount of time and cash and I have very limited free time due to work:(

Any suggestions?

You know me and trains - no go!! You are braver than me to go on one. I need to know that I get off after 5 mins if I need to.

One day-maybe .....

Oh and one more thing. I said to Alex the other day that I think if I flew the plane I would be ok. I dont mean a 737 or bigger, I mean a light-aircraft. But dare I try it - ummmmmmmmmmmmmm no!!

Lol

[Matt]

yeah I like to know there is quite a small gap between stops as a safety net... lol Hey perhaps we could go halfs on the hire from kates blokey! heheh

funny you should say that about planes nic the local airfield is closer than a train station!! I have enquired about the price of a 1 hour lesson hehe I mean how hard can it be??? heheh
