Thank you EC, I think the nerves may have helped me tbh. The first two times i chewed rescue remedy from boots (plant extracts) I wasn't sure it worked but today proved it did as i was a wreck lol MrJen looked at me in the waiting area and had to calm me down as i was seconds away from really panicking lol

The examiner i got this time was lovely too which i think really helped.

How is the driving going now you have had a few weeks at it?

 

Hopefully you have managed to get out a fair bit.

It's been great EC! I've done so much more than i would have without being on the road.

Although i haven't driven anywhere this week as i've now had my car a whole year, so MOT time and it failed.... Quotes of ÂĢ300! BUT bought an exhaust for ÂĢ24 and MrJen fit it (ÂĢ156 from garage! and he learnt how from youtube!) and all other parts have been approx ÂĢ35... local garage fitting them in the morning for ÂĢ25!! What a bloody mark up.

I have missed my car SO much this week and after only having it (solo) for such a short time too... It's quite scary tbh

Best part about it all is my eldest daughter (13) We go off all the time, nipping to shops, or I'm picking her up and dropping her off etc... We have car discos lol Well until i come to a busy junction/roundabout... the i turn the radio off 

I cant wait to have my car back... Next step is to get on the motor way a few times (one end of Notts to the other)  and get down to see my family in Birmingham

Aww that's brilliant Jen    Car discos lol 

Smart thinking saving yourself those rip-off garage prices!!!  Mr Jen teaching himself to fit an exhaust from Youtube... well done to him!

Well it sounds like it's going rather well (excepting the MOT). Good to hear you are finding it a big benefit.

 

When will you get the sticker "Daughters Taxi"?
