Today was my test - failed

After weeks and weeks of guessing when my test was, it arrived today. I had actually guessed it was today, so it wasnt too much of a shock, still had quite a good relationship with the loo prior.

We arrived in Taunton about an hour before the test appointment and we sat in the car, running through the pointers and the questions i would get asked.
We then went for coffee - the first time i really felt relaxed with my instructor

We arrived at the test centre 10 mins before my appointed 10.44 slot. Out came the examiner and checked my paperwork.

And out to the car, leaving my instructor sat in the waiting room.

I was asked about oil, and headlights, as my show and tell questions

We set off and headed off to Town centre.

I had to do a reverse around a corner and a bay park.

But I got a serious fault on a roundabout, where i pulled out, and the examiner felt that a car had to slow down to let me out. Not sure i agree!

Anyway next test will probably be in December, My instructor is gonna take me for a few booster lessons just before it. He will ring me later when he as booked it.

How much longer?

Well another week went past and it wasnt my test.

We drove over to Taunton again today (sorry I mean I drove), around all the little roads by the test centre.

I did ok with the maneuvres, but still managed to stall about 4 times on junctions. Other than that my driving was ok-ish

My instructor ran through all the points of the test to prepare me for the looming big day!

I did double check that there are toilets in the test centre, cos I am sure i will need them!

9th October

Well todays lesson wasnt very good.

I stalled many times, was in the wrong lane at a roundabout and got quite flustered.

Everyone says you have a crap lesson the one before your test, lets hope that was it.

Almost there

Todays lesson was yet another mock test, I would have passed apart from one thing. I forgot to signal as i changed lanes.
