I passed!

From the "You Can't Win" Files:

I was told before the test to make sure I checked my mirrors and didn't speed. i was told (over and over every lesson) to not worry so much about parallel parking, that I was fine at it and to concentrate on speed and mirrors.

I nearly failed the test today because I drove too slowly, used the mirrors too much (!) and failed to correctly parallel park within 2 minutes (think it was about 2:20).

I feel slightly vindicated, and am glad the tester was nice about it!

It may be time for a Victory Drive...

Yes. It's what's referred to as 'Paul Gross arms': someone putting their arms in the air.

Are you a Slings and Arrows fan?

I've seen a couple of episodes, that's all. But it seems like a good show.

Nonononono...

You have a designated alcohol-free driver with six years worth of lifts to repay!

Just don't mock my parking ;-)

Well done! I understand about the driving-too-slowly thing. I had "don't drive too fast" drilled into me by my instructor, then was told by the examiner that I drove too slowly. Bah!

Congratulations, Chris! I am inspired to hurry up and get my license (looks like I'm going to be the last in our group of friends to get it), pity about the extra obstacle of manual.
