Edinburgher gets cracking!

Good luck Edinburgher, just think of the money you can save when you pass. Then all you need to do is get Mrs E through hers. I will be thinking of you and keeping an eye out for you coming back on here. What time is your test?

Hope your driving test has gone well today .

Come on Mr E, where are you?

You're either down the pub celebrating - better not be driving

Or you may be hiding if you didn't pass - if it's the latter, just get it rebooked.

Best wishes Tilly x

if it's the latter, just get it rebooked.

5th of June

4 Majors (1 unfair, guess the examiner was sick of me by that point), 2 Minors. Horrible sickening feeling after less than 10 mins when he dual controlled the car.

• Transferred my ISA interest from Halifax to Santander this morning, a whole £30 or so for the year. Can close those accounts now.
• Cancelled our Lottery DD
• Increased our S&S DD by the amount of the Lottery. Now £177/mth :A

Keeping myself busy, don't want to think about it.

At least it is rebooked. I failed my first test with 3 majors and 2 minors, passed with only 2 minors the next time. Hope you get plenty of driving time before the next one.

I am not going to lie - I have made use of the 750 Tesco Clubcard points offer when you spend £50 on wine...

So come Monday and I'll cheer up

Hi Mr E, best thing you can do is to rebook straight away. Now you know what to expect, and you know what to work on.

Well done on the wine purchase - sounds like a plan

Bad luck. Driving is a skill and your lessons really start when you pass, so take heart, chin up and better attempt next time.

Don't worry, I didn't see a cyclist on a roundabout as they were exactly in the spot blocked by the pillar on the car, instructor made a noise like *eeeeeee* so I emergency stopped for him. Don't think he appreciated it that much :rofl:

It's funny now, wasn't at the time!

I'll take a week or so off and start back the weekend after next hopefully.

Managed to renew our Home Contents insurance. Have parted company with More Than, after the daft woman I spoke to suggested that they might not be able to offer me *contents* insurance because of historical subsidence :rotfl:

We are now with LV, with said historical subsidence recorded in the quote and above board.

£5 cashback and £1 a month cheaper. Increased our S&S DD by the £1 - HL will be thinking I've gone crazy
