Pray for The Presenter!!

Evening all...

Tonight it's me on PTP duty.. and as well as the TSP classic at 9pm I'll also be playing 2p/4p cash and 10p/20p cash 
AT THE SAME TIME!!!

I will post the tables at 7pm as I sit..

And... as an added extra I will giving out a tourney TOT entry for the first person who guesses my final score in my Driving theory test tomorrow.. It'll be the 3rd time I've taken the test.... and it has to be taken every two years so you can work out how long I've been trying to get my practical test for *sigh*.

I've never failed a theory yet but there's always a first time :^/

Anyway.. I got a bit excitable and booked my Practical too after just the first lesson I've had in 2 years.. EEEEK!! It's in three weeks time. So now you all now I'm under pressure to pass!!

So also feel free to keep my nerves at bay with your driving stories and how many times it took you smarty pants to pass.. Embarrassingly this will be my 6th or 7th try (I stopped counting at 3).

I know. I suck... and No. That's not a Euphemism!

    9 major faults in my first test.....

    Stuck in the middle of the round, half way through a 3 point turn, facing the wrong way, and on a glorious summers day in Doncaster town centre, accidentally flick my windscreen wipers up.

    Had only done 16 lessons, and amazingly, it hadn't rained at all during those 16 hours. Had no idea which sticky out bit I had flicked, and therefore, no idea how to turn them off.

    I clicked, pushed, pulled, prodded, water shot up on the screen, they started wiping faster.....then faster again. Until I had to admit to the instructor, something she clearly already knew, I had no idea how to turn them off..................

    Obv she told me it's a good idea to pull over safely before she could show me! lolol.

    Anyway 8 more major faults in that test....

    7 minors no majors in the next.........

    And I've got a licence that I haven't used since I was 20 :)

    GL!

    good luck, especially if you booked your test in London :)

    is the theory still out of 50?  if so I think you will get a 47!

    ummm i take it that you are gonna be dressing in such a way that may make the examiner not fully concentrate on how many times you check your blind spot ;)


    EDIT: I would say borrow that red dress from the wardrobe dept., however I think that may look a bit much haha

    LML, ive taken 3 theory tests too! passed em all.

    2 practical, failed both.

    Dangerous faults in both. One, almost hit a lorry on a dual carriageway cos i didn't check my mirrors properly. Two, almost ran over an old man in a mobility scooter. Well, he was in the way, how selfish.!:)

    Best of luck LML!  Might see you on the tables later... innit!

    Oh and ive had 80+ driving lessons in four different towns!

    my guess 50/50, top marks!!:)
