Off to Florida

I just had my last driving lesson before Florida. We did a mock test, and guess what I failed..... I am not surprised.
Kept getting cocked up with which lane I should be in and then changing my mind half way around the roundabout - Oh well, I have got my mind on other things.
He did say that my manuevres were excellant, and my observation was good, and if anything those were the two things I was most concerned about.
Next lesson booked for 17th July at 9am
Right i am off to make sure these cases are ready to go!

Show Me Tell Me

Todays lesson was doing maneuvres again, which I am glad to say I think I have got almost sussed now.

We then run through the procedure for the test, and I have been given a list of possible questions for the 'show me tell me' part of the test, to which i have to learn

We are doing a mock test next week in Taunton.

Then I am away for a fortnight after that and have no further lessons booked as yet.

Driving Test Booked

My driving instructor phoned me today, to get my theory pass certificate and my date of birth, so that he can book my driving test.

He then rung me later in the day, to say that all booked, and to take provisional license and theory pass certificate with me for every lesson now.

I had asked him to book it without me know the date, as I tend to get all worked up, and knowing I have 'maybe six' weeks to go until the big day, does me no favours.

He has also cancelled this Thursdays lesson and booked me in for Wednesday at 11.30 instead

Lesson hours 33 & 34

When i jumped into the car this morning, My driving instructor was booking someone elses test. The earliest appointment was 3rd August, quite a few weeks away. He still hasnt booked mine so we are looking at mid August before I get the chance to try.

We spent the whole 2 hours reversing around corners and parallel parking, by the end of the lesson, I almost had it mastered. Gonna give it another go next week, as i really need to feel confident doing them.

Hours 31+ 32

Just came back from my driving lesson (hours 31 + 32).

Only did manoeuvres and found them bloody hard.

But he laughed it off and said he was amazed when I did a three point turn first time perfect, still not booked my test yet, as he didnt ask for money.
