    Cheers mate. :D

    Thanks pal. :D Not sure if it'll be the most important, but sure will be the most useful!

    Na, currently getting a ball-park figure from friends with regards to how much their insurance cost and me and the parents are looking through the Auto Trader too to attempt to get the best, yet cheapest deal.

    I passed first time two weeks ago and had my first near crash yesterday :laugh:

    I had a sat nav on telling me where I was going but the battery went without me realising so it turned off.
    I was cruising along at 60 on a country road and all of a sudden I see a T Junction about 20 metres away which I obviously have to stop at.
    I slammed on the brakes and my car went skidding all over the road. Smoke everywhere and the smell of burning rubber. Luckily there were no other car near this junction. If there was I would have crashed for sure. :laugh:

    I don't think there's one person on the planet that wasn't nervous about their test(s). If they say they weren't, they're a liar.

    Being nervous is just what comes with doing it. You need to blank those nerves out and do what you have been taught in your lessons. Take your time too.

    As soon as you realise ouve made a mistake assume that you've failed. That way you will relax and drive better

    But then, some will think "what's the point in trying" and not take the added extra care.
