Its sounding good mate. All you have to do is learn from the errors that you make and you will no doubt be ready for the test on Monday.
I remember my very first day out on training in the rigid, must have hit every single kerb around Stafford and nearly threw in the towel. But came back the next day and learnt from it. No more kerbs (well apart from the test morning but hey that down to nerves 
)
Keep up the diary its good to read.
