The start of my journey

Thanks sam :slight_smile:

Nick, I asked for the 2 days next Friday and the Friday after. The more driving time the better as far as I’m concerned and I can ask to cover more test routes, I wish I’d had the extra lessons before tbh but never mind I have test procedure experience now and I know that it’s not as bad as I thought it’d be.

The test itself isnt that bad. I found the reverse to be OK and the questions before were fine I think it was just the pressure I put myself under!

Yes that’s what gets you the pressure :frowning: try not to worry on Saturday and GL!

I’m not feeling too bad about the bus stop thing and won’t beat myself up about it. I thought I was coming to a safe stop behind a blue transit sat in a layby, I just didn’t realise there was a bus stop at the back of the van until I committed myself and pulled in. I pulled as far forward as I could as soon as I realised but it wasn’t a suitable place so hey-ho my bad.

Oh forgot to say my show me, tell me’s were tyres (pressure and condition), digital tachograph operation, how to check wipers, front and rear lights, audible warning devices and how to operate the tail-lift so 6 questions, hmmm didn’t realise that at the time! I feel as though I had a good roasting all round rofl.

At least you know what a test is like now :slight_smile:

When’s your next test Katea

Hey. Sorry to hear u didn’t pass. I’m also a wannabe girl driver. Gonna hopefully do my medical and theories before crimbo, and then practical and test in the new year.
Excited! x

Hi everyone, sorry not been on here for a bit.

jim I certainly do know what the test is like and what to expect - hopefully I won’t get a Grant Mitchell lookie-likie again. He scared me :frowning:

Embo I say go for it, I love driving the training vehicle and you will know instantly if it’s what you want to do.

Sam my next test is on Saturday (14th) so I am trying to connect to my inner ‘man’ and get some nerves of steel :laughing: I’m finding AC:DC and Saxon are helping a lot :smiley:

Balls not required! :wink:
It’s a calm relaxed state of mind knowing you are capable, and a run that seems to flow like a dream.
The more calm and relaxed you are, the better it flows…

I like my rock (Bush, RATM & Drowning Pool), but it ain’t test material! :open_mouth:

Best of luck, my C+E is the 16th!!! :grimacing:

Only one you mullet bellend! :laughing:
It bloody needs to be, I’m a physical wreck… :smiley:

Besides, you want me, you and Ash to all pass first time, as that only leaves the beaver… :unamused:

I don’t give a frig bud. All my passes first time are all that matters to me [emoji2]

Well good luck for the 14th and I’m sure you will smach it this time

Thanks Sam, I’ve got my test first thing so hopefully I won’t be hanging around the test centre for too long.

Hopefully I’ll enjoy the experience more this time!

I had my retest at half 8 on a Saturday morning. Was quite foggy but the roads weren’t too busy which I think helped a bit

I think it’s going to rain here on Sarturday Nick but I don’t mind, it should be quieter here also so fingers crossed it’ll all go smoothly.

I’ve got a 3 hour lesson tomorrow too so it’s all good :slight_smile:

You will be fine got my c+e test on the 27th of this month start me training on the 23rd and I can’t wait

I had a few lessons in with a few showers but nothing bad. It seemed a lot easier for the lorry to steam up then

Nowt wrong with a bit of rock but please set to " Truck crash bed " or enter sandman :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Good luck don’t worry my test was cancelled several times due to snow & snow & more snow

How did you get on today Katea

Best of luck for test today, and the result is…
