    Good luck, it depends all on the day, with a bit of luck thrown in. The best bit of advice I clould give you is what my instructor told me to do. Adjust your rear mirror so that you have to turn your head a further centimeter to see more than normal. That way the test examiner will see fully that you are looking in your mirror at all times...... one of the big failure points. Good luck buddy. Alanthemanc

    Oh the very best of luck Mike, I hope you can get a date sooner rather than later and that it all goes well. I was told the mirror trick too - I adjusted not only the rear-view one but the wing mirror too, so my head was swinging about all over the place!

    I hope all is well with you, Hazel and Mike Jnr. Passing your test will make such a difference to their lives, and yours. Oh Mike, how exciting . . . . . .! DD
