:smile::smile: Well they seem to be coming along nicely . just did reverse parking into a bay at a shopping centre , the instructor is very pleased with me , so I think coming march I should be able to sit my driving test ( unless I dont pass the theory) it has cost me this week £80.00 in taxi fares to the hospital and when I need to go to the health centre it costs me £8.00 in taxi fares so I cant wait to be able to drive there myself.

The instructor cant hold me back or Can he :?: :?: :?:

    Reverse parking, eh :?: I'm impressed, Mike :!: :grin: Well done :!: I was always rubbish at reversing ( still am :!: :shock: )

    The way that the cost of fuel is going up, it will cost a lot of money to drive anywhere soon though. ( sorry to put a damper on your enthusiasm.)

    Good luck with the driving anyway :grin:

    You are getting the hang of this driving malarkey, aren't you Mike? When do you hope to sit the theory part? DD

    Mike you are doing so well. I so agree about the associated costs of taxi, hospital visits and not too mention the inconvenience of waiting for said taxi to arrive. You will also be able to pick up Mike Junior when you need to. And you don't have to rely on the more expensive local shops for your groceries.
    I am really excited for you. Remind me what car you have got through mobility.

    Nice one Mike, you seem to be making progress. It sounds like the instructor is getting on with it a bit. From now on , you should be starting to see the end of the tunnel. Alanthemanc

    Well done you Mike!!

    I reckon you should put in for your theory now? They last 2 years,(?) once you've passed them so no need to wait till you are ready for the practical.

    Love
