Dan's 1st Driving Test

15 May 1997

AT LAST!!! my chance to pass my driving test is today. I passed my theory test 3 months ago, it was only my 5th attempt. My driving instructor says that I drive like a kangeroo on speed, I am not quite sure what that means though. He also says that there is no reason why I should pass (I think he meant that there is no reason why I should fail.). My test got off to a good start, he was very talkative, telling me to put my seat belt on, mirror, signal, manoever and not manoever, signal, mirror- I always get that the wrong way round. Half way through the test I decided to have a quick look at the test paper, he appeared to be playing naughts and crosses, but for some reason all I could see was crosses, there were a few D's as well, perhaps he did not like naughts. I thought I had done really well, he told me to return to the test center after only 15 minutes, I was really suprised when he told me that I've failed. I don't know what he was on about though - he had his eyes shut for most of the time, but I did think that I impressed him because for no particular reason at all, he got out the car shouting and screaming these funny words, which I've never heard before, most of them beginning with the letter F. Got to go now me dinners ready.
Love Dan
