Don't think I'll try driving today, I don't know where my mum's hidden the P plates anyway :lol: I'll probably drive up to the school tomorrow because that's not a long drive away.

But yeah...relieved I don't have to do it again! I'm going to take motorway lessons and pass plus when I get back from holiday in the meanwhile I'll just practice around my area.

Thanks for the good lucks everyone :)

well done! :)

Congratulations Kasple - I bet your over the moon!

Welllll done Kasple :D:D:D. I didn't even know you were doing it :lol:. I should read this thread more often! Haha.

So pleased for you :D:D xx

Well done stars happy safe driving......

Well done StarsofCCTV!
I still need to get my book :wall: Must remember to go to the bookshop!

Congrats Kasple :cheer:

I should really book my test again.

On a side note, the exhaust on my car fell off on Monday night when my brother in law was driving it. It cost £50 just for the front part :eek:

Uh ohh, darn cars! They're so flipping expensive!

Had another lesosn today, and it went soooo much better. My instructor said I drove really well and that my driving is really picking up so that sort of boosted my confidence :)
I started manouveres today too finally! Was supposed to do them last lesson but I had to get used to the new car first.
So I did "A Turn in the road" commonly known as 3 point turns. But they can't call it that because if you did the turn in over 3 points you failed... and they can't fail you on that now.. can only give you a minor... ahah see, I do listen! :D

I really need to book my theory now.. I jsut do not have the funds! I neeeeed a job !!

You can do a turn in the road in as many turns as you like without getting penalised.

When I did my last test, I did it in five. The examiner (who was a tw*t) said I could have done it in four :confused: That's impossible. He gave me a serious for it as well :angry: If it hadn't have been for that I would have passed. My instructor said I shouldn't have even got a minor for it but because she wasn't in the car with me there was nothing I could do.

Aww silly examiners! That's the part I'm most scared about for this exam if I'm, honest... you hear of some really horrible examiners, but then you hear of the nice ones too :)

My instructor did say like.. you can't be failed on it but the worst you should/would get is a minor. But thats somethign I can live with really :)

What an idiot examiner of course your allowed to do a five point turn! :rolleyes:
