It's Only Taken 3 Months!!

I was out in the car earlier taking my son to and from Beavers, as well as nipping to Morrisons for a few bits that we needed and I had to stop and start so many times that I really didn't know if I was coming or going. Made good use of my lights though!

Many people show their appreciation if you give way to them, but there are still some miserable buggers that just drive past you and don't let on AT ALL which is really annoying. I don't HAVE to pull over when I do you know, I COULD carry on driving and make YOU sit there looking like a prune instead you know!

Anyway, not only did this happen, I actually managed to park in a space all by myself! No help from anyone, though I did have to pull out once to get myself right, and I still managed to hit the kerb, but there was no-one there at all to help me! When I was going back out an hour later, I saw a T&S forum member who could possibly testify to my parking (but who probably didn't take too much notice in it anyway!), but not only him, I saw my instructor out in his car!! It's only taken 3 months for me to actually see him when I've been sitting behind the wheel, but it finally happened, so I did exactly what I shouldn't have done. Flashed a couple of times and waved frantically, all whilst getting ready to turn onto Queen Street. ohmy.gif I thought I'd seen him earlier on actually but decided it couldn't have been because he never worked Mondays! Obviously does now though.

It made my night anyway, and I'm hoping it did his, to finally see that I AM driving around and getting much better at it each time I'm out too! Not to blow my own trumpet or anything of course... wink.gif
