Theory Test
« on: November 01, 2003, 12:51:07 AM »
Been there...done that.   ;)

Went and took my Theory Test today.  Was soooo not ready (still reading the book while waiting for the test lol).  

Can I just say that I hate hate hate  :-X the Hazard part of that test?  It sucks great big donkey ones.  :P

Came out of the test and asked how I did...to quote the DSA guy "Congratulations, you're half way towards terrorizing the British Public on the Streets."

w00t!  ;D
Now to do the practical :)

ROFL!
Hey, congrats on the pass!

(I am so happy that I didn't have that hazards thingie to deal with when I took my test.)

oooh, and I forgot to say, turns out I answered every single one of the multiple choice questions correctly.  The hazard part you have to get 44 out of a possible 75 and I got 58.  So yay.  :D

Congratulations wench.  Geez just hearing about this part of the test is scary.  So glad you passed.  Must be a huge relief.

I experience great dispair each time I think about taking those tests.  I took two driving lessons...  am really afraid to drive (have had a license since I was 16 but am terrified over here)

So the driving instructor told me that I don't need anymore lessons until I pass the theory test and then I have to schedule more lessons (oh joy) and then, you know the rest.

I can't tell you how much I hate this.  Guess you know the deal, though.

Congrats Wench!  I envy you getting that out of the way!  :)
Life should NOT be a journey to the
grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well
preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand,
wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and
screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Well I'm taking lessons atm, since I'm learning a manual for the first time.  He thinks I should be ready to schedule the practical after our next lesson, I'm not so sure.  ;)
