Driving Lesson Number 13.
Phew! What a day! I don't know whether to blame the weather (which is GORGEOUS Caz! :-p), or the fact that I was tired, or the fact that I didn't go out last week, or even that I just forgot what I was doing and kept panicking, but what a crap driver I was today!!
I hit 4th instead of 2nd a few times and even stalled in the middle of a crossroads! D'oh!! I've got the 3 point turn and parallel parking down to a tee though. Even my husband was impressed when he watched me park as I arrived home. I didn't know he was on the step watching mind or I'd have gone to pieces and totally cocked the whole thing up! Him and me both thought I was going to hit the poor car parked behind me but I didn't and it was a perfect park! Right next to the kerb and everything! Yay!
I even gave way to an old dear crossing the road I was turning into and didn't wave her across as it says in the theory test revision so Nick was well impressed with that! Just need to fine tune my rules of the road and get down to the hazard perception because I really, REALLY can't do that yet! I had it set to 75% pass rate and couldn't even manage 50%!!
Anyway, next week it's reversing into a bay. Yikes!!
