james's top tip:

i wrote on my wrists, 'mirrors, signal, manouver' and 'check rearview mirror'

its completely fine to do so, and i swear it helped me pass, you just keep it fresh in your mind because you know what to do as its written down in front

My instructor thought i was ready.....
Boy was he wrong!!!!!
joking.......... kinda

I did get the worst examiner in Lincoln (evil woman) who failed my friend as well,
she had (YES SHE) even been told to not fail so many people because its was happening to often.
I failed because i "didnt see" an motorbike!! (it was 3 in the afternoon and everyone was coming out of school so it was chaos!!) i pulled out just after the bike, so i could have passed but she failed me (i did see it honest).

Anyway 1 week later back for another go!!!! Same evil woman, middle of the day hardly anyone around, open roads lots of cars parked all over so no parallel parking, and the only free corner had 2 ladies and a push chair (having a mothers meeting!!) so we drove on!! no maneuvers for me!!!! WOOT passed THE END (its a mini adventure!)

O and good luck,

I did so you can (im special :) )
