Oh boy this brings back memories!

Seems like years and years ago I had my lessons now. I'm sure you'll do great, it really helps if you have a great instructor too. My instructor, Karl, was a really good teacher I'd recommend him to anyone in the north west - Grovesner School of Motoring.

Although I do remember, the very last lesson before my test he got mad at me and told me straight, something along the lines of - "This is totally unacceptable. You're going to fail next week, you do know that"

Haha, harsh or what. It was deserved though, I just was getting really nervous and started making beginner mistakes.

However I went for my exam and felt dead relaxed. I ended up passing first time with only 2 minors, oh yeah rock on!!



I'm glad you were... I was very very nervous, even if I didn't show it much on the outside... apart from the obvious shakey hand syndrome... I was able to disguise that with a firm grip of the steering wheel. I actually started having a huge conversation about something 5 mins into the test... I totally relaxed then and it was like driving my dad around... just I had to do 4 manouvers... turn in the road, reverse around a corner, parallel park and the emergency stop.

I passed 1st time with 4 minors... 2 for signaling... which was b0llocks. 1 for not going around the edge of a roundabout in a chavvy housing area (which has broken glass round about the edge which I didn't want to go over) and the other was for something else that just was randomly ticked.

I'm not too bothered... I passed and thats all that matters. I got home and took the L plates off my old Foci and drove 100 miles
